I liked it a great deal (though it was definitely flawed). If you like Scorsese, I'd say go for it.Freed Roger wrote:Shutter Island -is it worth watching?

Yes. Great acting, directing and maybe the best use of music (in my opinion) since The Shining.Freed Roger wrote:Shutter Island -is it worth watching?

There were quite a few critics who beat it up for that (amongst other things). But I agree with you. I thought it was perfectly atmospheric.thrill wrote:Yes.

I really liked Shutter Island too. That's one island you don't want to be on.JL21 wrote:There were quite a few critics who beat it up for that (amongst other things). But I agree with you.

Christopher Nolan makes good use of music in his movies.

Think I'm going to check out Winter's Bone at the cinema tonight.

Re: Recently viewed movies
I've had my eye on that for awhile. Be sure to report back with how good it is. 94% on the ol' Tomatometer means it should be fantastic. Throw in that it was filmed in the Ozarks and it's an extra incentive to see it.
