duh~
its a freaking cool movie to watch..
but only for selected kind of people who have good imagination in understanding a person who has a broken, shattered reality...which means to say; psychosis...
for those with defective imagination, i guess this is not the movie best suited for you...it may only waste your time and money and also your minds reading this review...so don't bother...huhu
this movie is starred by leonardo dicaprio...who portrays himself as an army who then becomes a US Marshall...he was sent for a mission to investigate on a lost psychiatric patient in shutter island. this island is situated in the middle of the sea in god-knows-where that can only be reached by ferries. and in this island, theres a psychiatric institute for those criminally mentally disabled..(is that the correct term?)
so long story short...after an endless lost and found, mysteries by mysteries started to surface which is very confusing yet intriguing...all the rule no.4 and who's 67....this man and his partner, chuck was like entering a god forsaken dwindling labyrinthine of solving the mysteries until at almost the end of the story, somehow chuck died after falling down from a cliff...
mysterious as it is, he is very much convinced that chuck died because of murder by those who dont want the secret of the place spilled out. thus not wanting the death of chuck to be useless, he was determined to bring the down the doctors from the institute whom he suspected to be carrying out a very illegal, merciless, experimental lobectomy (taking out some part of your brains to make you zombified) using only electrical stuff to those mentally disabled patient from the institute...
however, it was all only in his head...
nothing is real...
he was only hallucinating things and is suffering from a bad persecutory delusions..
and not forgetting, his affective disorders...
turns out, this was triggered by the murder of his 3 precious children by his own psychotic wife whom he killed afterwards...at that time he was still a US marshall but somehow couldnt stand the depressing facts of killing his wife who took away his children...becomes psychotic and he ended up in shutter island for treatment...
and chuck however is not his partner, but is actually his primary psychiatrist...and yeah, is not dead in anyways..
the psychiatrist and hospital staffs were all only playing along with his hallucinations and delusions in order to try make him see sense that whatever he is believing in is non-sensicle at all...
its a really abnormal mystery story from the beginning but you know, you are diving into the mind of a psychotic patient....its very bizarre and has no end..they believe in it...and nothing in this world can break into their mind to make enable them differentiate what is real and what is not real...they are just like us but has different set of reality which is unreal...we believe in what we see, but they believe in what others can't see or understand..its not like they want it like that, its just they can't help it...
all in all, its a very inspiring story...
and definitely a new version of beautiful mine in some way...
those inspiring to become psychiatrist, rest assured, this movie is made for you...hahaha
