To be completely honest, it wasn't until I'd seen Shutter Island all the way through, and the opening scenes of Inception that I realised just how similar the waters were.

For some reason I just thought that you'd seen Shutter Island, already ( I think I thought I remembered a few response/reaction paragraphs, here, at some point), and it shocked me to learn you hadn't. But, yes, it was a Much better film than I'd heard from many people, and I was pleasantly surprised.
