Shutter Island ****DEFINITE SPOILERS**** a few questions

[funkyboogalooo]

As this has been out a while now and there is a thread running that doesn't have spoilers I wanted to ask a couple of questions. BELOW HAS SPOILERS YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.















Who thinks he was insane? Why?
Who thinks he wasn't? Why?

Now regarding the last line which was something like "is it better to live as a monster or die as a good man" I understood it in regard to everyday life but not in the context of the flm. What was he trying to say?

I had the plot sussed by the time they had supposedly recovered the escapee lady back to her room as it was a pretty obvious plot not because I had cleverly worked it out.

Any more thoughts

I was very underwhelmed by the film. The plot has been done to death before by the likes of Star Trek TNG and The Outer Limits.

Oh and it was far too long.

Very good film, and kept with the book well, great use of sound, characters were great.

I felt that the entry in www.themoviespoiler.com was accurate and does sum the plot up

Thanks. Just read that, and the last two comments at the bottom of the page probably sum it up very well.
