An Average Action Film.

Posted : 1 year, 5 months ago on 1 July 2008 01:21 (A review of The Island)

"The Island", was in some ways a disappointment. The action scenes were average, but they were very predictable, and for the most part, not very entertaining. I was expecting a much more exhilarating film, with more genuine scenes, and a few more plot boosts. "The Island", is just your typical action/science fiction film, with a pretty interesting and unique plot. There was one aspect I was fond of however, and that was the comedy. This film was genuinely funny. I also thought they did a good job with the fight sequences, and car chases. So overall, a good solid film.

Great Film

This film was excellent. I loved the plot, "Rich people cloning themselves, for when they get ill or lose a limb they just take it off the clone and discard the rest".
I thought this was a great film, not your typical action film. This film will be hard to compete with.

"I certainly hope i'm not someones clone"

The Island

Another completely predictable movie. Every plot twist I saw coming long before it arrived, so there were no surprises. I did, however, find the movie entertaining, and loved all the action and destruction. I just sat back and watched this movie, and while not completely blown away, I definitely enjoyed it...though it seems more like a "watch once" kind of movie to me.

Amazing Sci-Fi Movie

Definetly the best Sci-Fi movie I have seen in a long time, Its an all-star cast, and although this movie is full of action and suspence it has many funny lines.
You really, really should see this movie.

Not What I Expected

I sort of thought this was going to be a suspense movie with the plot unfortunately revealed in the trailer. It actually is an "on-the-run" action movie. Better than I expected, but one stunt (you'll know it when you see it) is ridiculous.

Unbelievable stunts are only drawback.

The impossible stunts are what took away from this movie. In one scene, Lincoln and Jordon fall from the top of a sky-scraper and land on the ground practically unscathed. Give me a break. In another scene a Mack truck is driving down a highway carrying a load of oversized barbells and Lincoln lets them loose to wreak havock on their pursuers. The Mack truck DOESN'T STOP. I'm pretty sure that any driver would notice that their truck is being shot at and they are losing their cargo. Any driver would then pull over. This driver did not. Give me another break. Anyways, barring those two unbelievable scenes, it was a very cool movie.
