Genre: Mystery / Thriller / Drama

Federal Marshal Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) meets his new partner Chuck Aule (Mark Ruffalo) as they make their way to Shutter Island which houses the Ashecliff Hospital whish is actually an asylum for the criminally insane.
One of their patients has disappeared and must be found.

Dr. Cawley (Ben Kingsley) and Dr. Naehring (Max von Sydow) run the hospital and assist with the investigations.
But as the investigations progress, it is clear that something is amiss.

Flashbacks of Marshal Daniels' murdered wife Dolores Chanal (Michelle Williams) and his time during WWII are making the sinister surroundings even more foreboding.
Marshal Daniels also shows an ulterior motive to find another seemingly phantom-like patient Andrew Laeddis (Elias Koteas) who apparently murdered his wife.

But will the two Marshals be able to keep away from the deep secrets of Shutter Island or will this secret consume them?

The more I think about it the smarter this movie appears.
I can't reveal much but my advice is to pay attention to the movie (even though it may seem draggy and confusing at times) because you're given so many clues to solve the mystery at hand.
In fact there's even a clue or 2 in this post!

Another great movie from the pairing of DiCaprio and Scorsese.
You can really see how much DiCaprio has matured in his acting.

Final Verdict:
