    Okay, this week we didn’t venture into the movie theaters. Instead, we watched Shutter Island. Have you seen it?

    IMDB summary of the movie:

    Drama set in 1954, U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels is investigating the disappearance of a murderess who escaped from a hospital for the criminally insane and is presumed to be hiding on the remote Shutter Island.

    My Review:

    Wow. I watched this one a while ago and when I started thinking about it again for review here, I have to admit that it was well done. It’s still not one I’d run out and buy to watch over and over again, which is how I kind of “unofficially” rate my movies (Buyable or not. . .)

    I’m not a fan of the campy 1950’s, funky accent, detective stuff, but it really was done well. Great acting. Great suspense. Wicked-strong premise. Gotta give credit where credit is due. It was nicely done.

    At the end, it left me wondering, guessing, as to what really happened, which is okay. Not my favorite, but it led to some fun discussions.

    I give it THREE MOVIE TICKETS:

    Did you guys see it? What do you think really happened, considering how they left it at the end?
