Page 12 The Lion’s Eye March 17, 2010 Eve on Entertainment Movie Review: Shutter Island If you were expecting a frighten- ing view of an insane asylum, you need to find another movie. Shutter Island was more of a psychological thriller and you actually need to think towards the ending to get the twist. Prettyboy DiCaprio and Mark Ruffalo play two state marshals who were assigned to Boston’s Shutter Island Ashcliff Hospital to investigate a missing patient’s disappearance. Upon entering the hospital, they were met with uncoop- erative staff members and haunting situa- tions. DiCaprio’s performance was some- what entertaining and I am sure that he felt right at home on the set where he spent most of his time being drenched by storms and at one point, yet again, swimming in freezing waters. The movie was advertised as a hor- ror flick, but there was only one scene that made audiences jump. The main plot of the movie is reminiscent of an episode of Law and Order mixed with Ghost Hunt- ers. DiCaprio and Ruffalo try to gather evidence and run into paranormal as well as just plain crazy patients. By Kyrstin Camp - Lion s Eye Staff Writer - ksc5136@psu.edu a EN ER PHN DCMEN pa taaetativd snes 2 65018 § The movie itself is composed of multiple flashbacks to DiCaprio’s former life before the assignment and if you pay attention, you can put the pieces together and figure out the unexpected ending. In my opinion, the only thing that prevented this movie from being one that I would buy, is the annoying and unnecessary added effects. Through- * out the movie leaves, ashes, loose pages of paper and continuously falling and taking away from the movie itself. Overall the movie has had positive press. Receiving a 4/4 from The Charlotte Ob- server and a 31/2 stars from The Chicago- Sun Times, the movie left critics happy. ON the other hand, according to the New York Times, the movie not worth the time, “Something TERRIBLE is afoot! Sadly, that something turns out to be the movie.” On a personal note, the movie was well worth the 10 dollars. It’s a great movie to see on these rainy nights that have be- come so common, and a great way to keep your mind guessing.

This song is featured in Guitar Hero II as well as “The 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time.” Halfway into the song is a gigantic saxophone of Jagger’s crooning paired with outstanding 12-string guitar riffs. I feel like this is the first Stone’s song | heard where I could fully understand the vocals. | Nothing can quite per- fectly capture the essence of the classic rock era as well as Sticky Fingers.

Sticky Fingers was released in 1971 on Rolling Stones Records. The album also ranks number ‘sixty-three on Rolling: Stone maga- zine’s 500 Greatest Al- bums of All Time list. The album epens up with the blues-rock ballad Brown Sugar. The perfect beginning to a Stone’s album includes a famous guitar intro that instantly holds the band’s trademark. Next mention on the album is a softer stone titled Wild Horses. Mick Jagger himself dubbed this hit a “sad love song.” This song is beautifully simplistic and lyrically profound. Wild Hors- es also reached a peak of #28 on the singles chart. The song consists Photo courtesy of last.fm My personal favorite song on the album is the rock staple Can’t You solo giving the band a more versatile vibe. This song is definitely the bluest on the album. With 12-bar guitar accompanied by the sax and jazz-like cymbal work, the song showcases the band’s musical talent. Bitch shows Mick Jagger’s demonic persona. This track pairs an instrumental whirlwind along with hi- lariously evil lyrics. This song is composed of most- ly bass and drums giving it an overall rough feel. Overall, this album is jam- packed with great hits from one of the best bands of all time. It’s one of those must- haves along with Cream’s Disraeli Gears and Dylan’s Blonde on Blonde. I believe this is a monumental album that re- ally shows how innovative and un- predictable The Rolling Stones can be. 5. “Fever” - The McCoys 6. “Miss Ohio’s Nameless” - Why? a 7. “Crystalised” — The xX 8. “Bone Machine” - Pixies 0. “Cherry Chapstick™- Yo La Tengo 10. “Heads Will Roll” = Yeah Yeah Image courtesy of: theacidhouse.com Image courtesy of www.recordbrother.typepad.com
