Terrible - ponderous, plodding, obvious, and dull

from Los Angeles, CA
Shutter Island dies from a weak, nonsensical story. From the opening frames, it's obvious there's a gimmick to the story and the film plods along through pointless paranoia-inducing scenes until it reveals what's really going on. And unfortunately, what's really going on isn't vaguely interesting to begin with. Scorsese indulges his talent for grandiose imagery, but completely bogs down in his attempt to bring meaning to a completely forgettable story.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
