What's crazy is that not only does Leo break down as he learns the truth, but so do we the audience. As the protagonist, we trust that everything he sees and hears is true, but this movie takes that a brilliantly betrays that. I don't think Mark Ruffalo got enough credit for his performance here. He's a truly talented. You guys outta put Zodiac on your list.

[@RamblersInc]

Is that called the "unreliable narrator" or is that something else entirely? Added Zodiac👍

[@kylewestlake982]

@@RamblersInc Definitely feels like he was unreliable. Can't wait for you see Zodiac. It was RDJ's big comeback and his stepping stone to Iron Man

[@user-eh8cg4bp3y]

​@@RamblersIncThat's right. Great call. It's actually a feature of a lot of movies recently. Just because we are following the story and learning along with the main character, it doesn't mean s/he is the best source. 🙂

[@andreaschmall5560]

He also preferred to be lobotomized rather than to continue on the "loop" that he kept reliving.

[@RamblersInc]

I don't blame him.

[@brandonbiondo9208]

He totally knew.

[@RamblersInc]

Yep. That last quote gave it away.

[@sean-ew2qv]

Burning alive would likely be much more painful than suffocation.

[@RamblersInc]

Agreed.

[@angelagraves865]

The author of this book, Dennis Lehane, also wrote Mystic River, The Drop, and Gone Baby Gone, all great movies.

[@RamblersInc]

If they're mystery thrillers like this, we'll definitely add them to the list.

[@angelagraves865]

@@RamblersInc There's a definite similarity in tone with all the stories. Crime mystery thriller is a good way to put it.

[@treefeathers]

He hasn't regressed, he knows the truth but is choosing to be lobotomized because he can't live with the guilt and grief of what happened. He'd rather just have his mind wiped.

[@RamblersInc]

It's so sad. Not surprised he was this broken.

[@Alxndr57834]

One of the best reactions and you included all the key scenes! This is one of those movies that's confusing the first time you watch it but when you watch it the second time, everything starts to make sense and you're able to connect things together that completely went over your head the first time. Such an incredible movie.

[@RamblersInc]

Twist after twist. We loved it....and got so much wrong during the movie😂

[@jlerrickson]

I do love the dream imagery in this film. We're all used to our own dreams being weird and disconnected, but it isn't something that's typically shown on screen that faithfully. It was as gorgeous as it was disturbing.

[@RamblersInc]

So true. I was torn between how beautiful and horrifying it was too.

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

The conversation between the head of security in the jeep and Teddy, is a perfect parallel of the conflict between Batman and The Joker!!

[@RamblersInc]

perfect way to describe it 😂

[@tracysmith3248]

This is one of those movies you’ll think about for a long time. Great reaction!

[@AREA-jp8vb]

I always wondered if it was a hidden case of DID. He created that “character” because he couldn’t handle what he did. That last line asking if it’s better to live as a monster, or die as a good man was his alter making that choice, taking the burden off of Andrew.

[@RamblersInc]

Oooooh that's a better way of looking at it. I think that makes the final line make more sense.

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

I LOVED that u finally mention (PSY-OP). The film is just that vs the audience. They ALL are my brothers

[@ChefNourhan]

He decided to choose lobotomy to kill the monster he thought of himself for not getting his wife treatment when she needed it and asked for it. To him that’s what made him into a monster that he didn’t help his wife and in result she drowned their children as a final plead for help. He wanted it all to end no more loops

[@RamblersInc]

I can't stop thinking about that quote at the end. It's a good way to let us know that he didn't regress, but..... he wouldn't be dying as a good man right? He's be dying as a monster?

[@paul89512]

Lobotomy doesn’t necessarily mean death. He is hoping to erase the monster and become a good man. So when he eventually dies, he will die as a good man.

[@thomaswilkinson6101]

5:03, "Yeap, that's not creepy", made me laugh out loud 😆

[@RamblersInc]

😂

[@user-kq5ke5yb6k]

I have to commend you guys especially for this: editing the movies very well.

[@RamblersInc]

Thank You 🙂

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

A big-time inversion film which, thanks to Scorcese, spreads throughout the movie-verse. Yin) Teddy's remark about his wife dying by smoke (suffocating) vs fire (burning). Yang) Teddy submitting to his madness in the end to be free (Lobotomy) vs remaining psychologically imprisoned the rest of his days.

[@isaiahpavia-cruz678]

Between this and Inception, Leo had a pair of mind-bending films during this time

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

He was severely traumatized during war and his wife's actions sent him into the true depths of his own psychosis. He is triggered throughout the film.

[@theirishslyeyes]

My favorite reactors posting a reaction to one of my favorite movies *on* my birthday???? Excellent! I can't wait to watch!

[@RamblersInc]

HAAAAPPY BIRTHDAAAAY 🥳🎊 Hope you have an amazing day 🎉🎉🎉

[@MoMoMyPup10]

The thrill of a great reaction: when they take the bait hook, line, and sinker, and the reveal is about to hit hard. Such a good reaction.

[@marbella135]

His guilt was too intense about not saving his wife and children so he saw himself as a villain. In the end he didn't regress he accepted reality and decided he can not live life knowing what he knows so he pretended he regressed to stop his suffering.

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

The single most powerfully hidden aspect of Shutter Island lies in one of it's stars...Mark Ruffalo. A film that deals with a man suffering from a severe split-personality disorder, is best served in having the ultimate monster-ego portray the primary caregiver of this victim of such an identity crisis. "Paging Dr Hulk, to the Lighthouse STAT!!"

[@RamblersInc]

😂 good point. He already had the experience.

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

@@RamblersInc the key is when Kingsley tells Teddy how he snapped when Noyce called him Leidus. "Youll do ANYTHING not to be Leidus!" That my friend, is Hulk vs Banner 101.

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

@@RamblersInc not to mention the inverse of...Bruce Wayne who can't STOP being Batman while the Joker has fully immersed himself in that identity. Audiences are such targets brother. Please take my words to heart.

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

Yin) Disfigured man in Ward C cage. Yang) Woman hiding in cave within cliffs.

[@katiegwynn4495]

This movie has the most amazing visuals

[@RamblersInc]

Especially that first time we see his wife and the place is on fire. Amazingly done.

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

The trick was the apartment fire story which was a metaphor. He was the maintenance man and lit the fire. He did NOT take proper care of his ill wife (maintenance) and her actions set his internal blaze.

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

If u don't believe me about the Batman vs Joker narrative, consider the Dark Knight line from Harvey "Two-Face" Dent: "You either die a hero... Or you live long enough to see yourself become...THE VILLAIN!"

[@RamblersInc]

Oh yeah. They're quite similar.

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

@@RamblersInc my number one darkest pre-9/11 film is based on dozens of clever sight gags. Tom Hanks comedy, The Money PIT

[@Agreeful]

entertaining reaction! enjoyed the insight you guys had throughout the film

[@RamblersInc]

Thank You 🙂

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

BTW: the A.I. twin of this film... INCEPTION

[@Stogie2112]

LOL...I came here to recommend the wonderful animated film "Up", but I see that you guys have just watched it! COOL!! 👍👍

[@qa1327]

29:58 pretty much sums up what the movie makes you feel 36:56 no. Unfortunately you don’t. 37:44 got it This movie is great. it messes with your mind from start to finish trying to figure out what is going on. Even when you think you’ve got it, it will introduce something that makes you second guess everything. Really enjoyed your reaction.

[@RamblersInc]

The timestamps 🤣🤣🤣. We got sooo much wrong 🤣. I promise ...we were sober when watching this.

[@qa1327]

@@RamblersInc lol. Hey when I watched it the first time I was still searching for the right answers up until the end. Going from one theory to the next and back to the first.

[@RamblersInc]

It's a maze. Expert writing.

[@WelshAmethystGirl087]

Hide and seek is also a great thriller mystery, starring Robert de Niro and dakota fanning. Really creepy, great reactions guys I found your identity reaction and havnt looked back

[@RamblersInc]

We'll add it to the list 👍

[@WelshAmethystGirl087]

@@RamblersInc amazing thanks guys

[@gingerbill128]

Great film and reaction . I think you did a god job of understanding the film , you are supposed to be confused and have to think about it. I assume he knew and just wanted to end the cycle so accepted being lobotomised . I can understand him wanting to end his mental suffering as well as being a danger to others. On a re-watch you see lots of clues , especially how the other patients and the staff react to him

[@RamblersInc]

Yeh we figured out he knew. It's just the "die as a monster line" which will haunt us forever lol. Oh that's a great point. It's probably really obvious when you watch it a second time.

[@hannigraham5831]

You should definitely watch Christopher Nolan's *Interstellar*

[@Tom-fu7xo]

Just subbed 😎🍻

[@RamblersInc]

🙌

[@user-eh8cg4bp3y]

I'm new to the channel guys but fantastic reaction. Please, if you haven't already react to "Nope". Love to see your thoughts on that one and how you bounce ideas off each other 🤓🇬🇧

[@RamblersInc]

We've added all 3 of Peele's horror movies on our list 👍 Hopefully we get to it soon

[@amurderofbananas7449]

To be fair, killing people also erases their memory. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@RamblersInc]

🤣👏 I spilt my coffee

[@JayStar-yj9pu]

No...not the "Perfect" soldier. The WINTER Soldier! Or MANCHURIAN Candidate

[@silentnoiz]

Now they have us both. Here! Now!
