This and Gangs of New York were pure big budget 'highbrow' hollywood bullshit with esteemed names matched.
I disliked Gangs of New York more, but Shutter Island over all rubbed me the wrong way.
I don't know if it was Leonardo's acting, the lame you-see-it-coming-a-mile-away plot twist or the overly dramatic nature of the whole thing... but I just couldn't get behind it.
