Gordon Levitt is a next one who could become big when he starts to act in (good) movies which people actually see. He has real talent. Anyone who ever saw (500) Days of Summer or Mysterious Skin will understand what I talking about.
These fellas are actors, not no damn Zack Effron and Twilight fellas....
I jus saying nah....

Shutter island was not a teef head, unless you are pretty dull to start with.

From a plot perspective it was a good film. Shutter island is an underrated film....the more you watch it the more you appreciate all the details Scorsese put there for you to enjoy. Haven't seen a film for 2010 that has blown me away yet.

Next time you watch the film take note when he's wearing it....only the scenes where he's dreaming.
Moreover, note in the end...when he actually sees his children they are also a little older than the ones we see in the dreams...they have indeed aged.

No, that is just an assumption. Nolan never released any statement saying that. Plus you can't see his ring in most of the crucial scenes so this tidbit is irrelevant.Next time you watch the film take note when he's wearing it....only the scenes where he's dreaming.
Again, I have the movie here and there are many times you can't see his hand.Moreover, note in the end...when he actually sees his children they are also a little older than the ones we see in the dreams...they have indeed aged.
Nah. When you look at the kids they are wearing the same clothes as they wore when he sees them in his subconscious They look way too similar to how he always pictures them. Nolan left the movie up to interpretation, it isn't as clear cut as you make it out to be...otherwise there wouldn't be nearly as much debate as there is now

Nah you didn't understand the unerlying details and everything was NOT easy to piece together. Here are two examples of how things take diverging paths:
1) After Cobb took the super sedative from the indian dude and went in the room with all the dreamers to test the sedative out, you see him "waking up" in the washroom area but right before he was able to spin the totem, he was stopped. So for all we know, everything from there was just a dream.
Another possibility:
2) In the beginning when he talked to his kids on the phone, his daughter sounded pretty old...like a teenager. But in the end of the movie when he made it back to his kids, the daughter didn't age. This opens the possibility that he ended up being stuck in limbo and never made it out.
Inception < The Dark Knight IMO.
