Shutter Island

Shutter Island hit me with a schizophrenic irony from it's very opening: Leo DiCaprio shuffling off a bout of seasickness that screams off comparisons to his stilted performance in Titanic, garbed in 1950s shamus rags that directly calls to mind Orson Welles' Hank Qinlan. The film soars and dives thoughout its run time, often within the same scene. A good film, but certainly not great. Perhaps will improve with age.

I'm a bit perplexed how I can become a "fan" or how I can rate some films here at the auteurs... and others I cannot. There are films that should be listed here but are not ... others that shouldn't even be mentioned. Just an observation.
