Today Griffey and Dandino take a mental health break on Shutter Island. They discuss the film's big trick and how it plays throughout the movie, using movie star Leo to throw us off the scent, and the film's huge emotionally devestating finale. This is a bizarree blend of choices some refer to as lesser Scorsese. However on a return trip to the island you may find more to enjoy than you originally erased from your memory.

Synopsis: Two US marshals are sent to a mental institution on an inhospitable island in order to investigate the disappearance of a patient.

Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Mark Ruffalo, Emily Mortimer, Ben Kingsley, Max Vvon Sydow

Directed by Martin Scorsese
