Watching a movie every (other, or so) day, indefinitely. Why? Because.

Day 21 - Shutter Island

Well this is a grim one. It's also pretty trippy/creepy, so forgive me for not writing a whole lot. I'm in a strange space at the moment.


Shutter Island is quite an interesting mystery flick. Sort of like an Agatha Christie novel, but less happy. A lot less.


I don't really know what else to say about this one. It was very well produced, but I guess I was expecting it to be more of a thriller than it is.


However, if this film does one thing well, its immersing the viewer in the chaos of the plot. As the story unravels and insanity emerges, the viewer is right there, swimming in every detail of artificial worlds and false realities.


I'd really hate to be crazy.
