Shutter Island

no chance i was gonna get it in store so i just watched it online.

i love when movies leave interpretation up to the viewer. i'm not spoiling a thing. i've had customers tell me it wasn't that good, and i know why. average people are stupid and don't have the time or energy to appreciate a movie like this. the music was cool too.

damn, see there must be a lot more to this movie cus everyone keeps saying the same thing!

"i don't want to spoil it for you..."

i felt like the trailer for the movie gave a LOT away, but it sounds like there's more to it and now i really wanna watch it.

Very well done. I thought I had figured out what was going on (and it turns out I was right), but the movie did a good job of making me doubt my reasoning until the very end. And even then, there is still a little wiggle room left to question what happened.
That being said, I fully expect a fair number of customers to not like it because it made their wittle bwains hurt.

the movie was designed so that being right doesn't matter. thats the beauty of it. you can have what i've found to be up to 4 separate interpretations and still be correct.

No! Me right! Me, me, me!

Kidding, obviously. I'm curious though, I can figure 3 possible interpretations, but not a fourth. Hmmmm, don't want to throw spoilers of that magnitude around when so many haven't seen it yet. PM me your list when you get a minute.

I just watched it last night. I was half right about the movie.

I figured that whatever happened in the war, he got crazy and killed his wife and he was a patient at the hospital. I was close!

Way to throw that out there without any kind of spoiler warning.

Thanks a lot!

like i stated before. her spoiler is but one of many interpretations of the conclusion. i personally like another interpretation better.
