      • Shutter Island is a fiercely twisted, complex film built on a foundation of character-driven emotion. Those who think of Scorsese only as that guy who makes gangster movies will undoubtedly be disappointed, but if you’re interested in more than seeing how many guns can fit inside a violin case, then Shutter Island delivers.

    We find out that Andrew (Teddy) has committed murder. In his moment of lucidity, he defines the murder as being that of his wife, after she murdered their own children. But the murder of a single person doesn't seem so extreme as to land someone on Shutter Island -- meaning he must have done something else before he got there, which landed him on t...

    While still believing that he is Teddy, Andrew frequently has flashbacks of being a soldier in World War II. He remembers assisting in the massacre of German soldiers who had surrendered. Is this a part of his guilt, which caused him to form an alternate identity in order to compartmentalize his pain? If so, why can remember it so clearly?

    While lucid, Andrew is repeatedly referred to as a murderer and a killer. In many descriptions of the film, his character is also described as a psychotic killer. This seems like an exaggeration, however, when we learn of his crimes. RELATED: 10 Best Performances In Martin Scorsese Movies Andrew killed German soldiers, but it doesn't seem like this...

    While Andrew is walking through Ward C as Teddy, he sees prisoners in various terrible states living. They are mostly naked, all of them dirty, and their living quarters, in general, are dark and like that of medieval dungeons. When Teddy later wakes up as lucid Andrew, his cell is cleaner and more comfortable looking, but the same place, nonethele...

    It's revealed that Andrew apparently imagined talking to a woman on the side of a cliff. This is immediately after Chuck, or Dr. Sheehan, left his side and went off on his own. He becomes convinced Chuck is dead and goes searching for him. He climbs down the side of the cliff, where he later says he spoke to a woman. The Dr. reveals that the woman ...

    Andrew (Teddy) wanders out of the woods after the worst of the storm is over. A guard, who he had earlier referred to as looking like an "ex-military prick", pulls up in a car and offers him a ride. RELATED: The Best Leonardo Dicaprio Movies Of The Decade (According To IMDB) While driving, the guard engages Teddy in a conversation about the human r...

    Chuck is really Dr. Sheehan pretending to be Teddy's partner. He's doing this in order to keep an eye on Teddy while they allow him to work through the role-play simulation they have set up for him. So why is there a period in the film where Dr. Sheehan leaves Teddy completely alone? We know he doesn't imagine his conversation in Ward C because the...

    On his way to the lighthouse, Teddy comes upon a guard holding a gun. Teddy takes the gun from the guard and leaves him unconscious. Later, having made it to the top of the lighthouse, he threatens Dr. Cawley with the gun, and Dr. Cawley tells him that the gun is not loaded -- which is true. Did they have some way of knowing that Teddy would come u...

    Believing that Andrew has gone back to thinking he's Teddy, Dr. Sheehan nods to the guards, giving them the go-ahead to come and collect Andrew for his lobotomy, seeing as this was the agreement in place should their role-play test fail in bringing him back to sanity. However, just before he gets up, Andrew questions whether "it's better to live as...

    The biggest question of them all -- is Andrew lucid at the end of the film, or is he, in fact, Teddy? The last thing Sheehan calls him is Teddy, either just because they were just conversing as Teddy and Chuck, or possibly in the form of a question -- asking him if he is, in fact, Teddy at that moment. He could be Teddy, merely sharing a passing mu...

  5. Shutter Island is a very well made film that captures the genre of mystery similar to the Twilight Zone episodes and the renowned Hitchcock films.

  6. Shutter Island is one of the most well crafted psychological thrillers to come by since Silence Of The Lambs. And it is no coincidence both were brilliantly written novels. Shutter Island is adapted by a book written by Dennis Lehane (wrote gone baby, gone and mystic river).

  7. 15 minutes ago · Right from its first queasy images of a lawman shaking off nausea to set foot on an island prison for disturbed felons, Martin Scorsese’s Shutter Island (stream it here on Peacock!) sets a mood. Brooding skies, rakish angles, and lingering camera pans that capture horror in the faces of the criminally insane — there’s something sneakily ...
