Shutter Island

A World War II veteran turned U.S. Marshal investigates a patient’s disappearance from a remote hospital for the criminally insane. As troubling visions and evasive staff complicate the case, the isolated island becomes an increasingly unsettling maze of suspicion and uncertainty.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you like psychological mysteries such as Mystic River or Prisoners, especially stories built around uncertainty and shifting perceptions; Not for you if slow, dark, emotionally intense thrillers frustrate you.
