Two great movies, but Shutter Island intrigued me much more!

Yep, me too.

The Dark Knight was more memorable.

TDK...but Shutter Island was a solid flick also.

The Dark Knight. I knew what was going to happen in Shutter Island from the first two minutes. I wish I didn't, and got a different ending to what I thought, but no. I still like it though.

Ah, cool match-up. I loved Shutter Island's atmosphere and DiCaprio completely nailed his role. I guess I'm dumb to not figure out the ending way early but still, I nonetheless consider SI one of Marty's best works in recent years (along with The Aviator and The Departed). I just don't think it's as good as TDK though.

Your better off not figuring out, I wish I didn't, it was like a lighting bolt hit me ZAP! into my brain. I didn't even want to know! Ruined my cinema experience.

The Dark Knight is not only of the most popular films of the last decade but it's actually great as well, sometimes the best films aren't praised. A better film than Shutter Island.

The Dark Knight is easily superior. Shutter Island isn't bad, but it suffers from annoying characters and an unsatisfying conclusion.
