The Shutter Island - A Candy Thriller

I went to see "Shutter Island" yesterday with a friend. It was only one friend because the other one said that it's a scary movie so she wouldn't see it. Hearing this, my hopes just got high and from not being very convinced to go see it in the first place I started counting the hours. What can I say, I love a good scary movie.

So, we got there, the movie started, and......nothing ..no, no, really now, I mean .. Nothing!..
The movie has all the right ingredients: the water dripping from the ceiling, the flickering lights, the screaming in the background.. everything.. they're just... not mixed right I supose...
I must admit it has a nice twist at the end. You kind of start expecting something like that but you can't put your finger on it until the end.
During the movie there are inconsistencies that are placed intentionally in order to make you think and reanalyze certain aspects but they are not enough to really make you doubt the outcome.
It's a good movie overall but it's not exceptional as you would expect from a Scorsese movie. Leonardo DiCaprio is far from being my favorite actor but I must admit he does a pretty damn good role in this movie.
