"Shutter Island" a bleak journey
Martin Scorsese clearly had a ball making "Shutter Island," which seemingly hurls everything the director knows about filmmaking up on screen in a blazing, masterful technical triumph.
The joy of a boy playing with the world's greatest electric train set, as Orson Welles memorably described moviemaking, does not necessarily mean a good time for moviegoers, even with Scorsese's regular screen idol, Leonardo DiCaprio, leading the superb cast.
"Shutter Island" is long and wearying — brilliantly constructed, obsessively detailed, yet dramatically a piece of pulp schlock that's been overdressed and overstuffed to disguise a ponderous and absurd story.
