Frequent collaborators Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio team up once again in this 1950s period drama focusing on a U.S. Marshal's search for a former murderess, now-escaped mental patient who looks to be hiding on the secluded Shutter Island. Laeta Kalogridis adapts Dennis Lehane's novel of the same name, with Paramount Pictures and Columbia Pictures splitting production and distribution duties. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, All Movie Guide
