The Island (2005)
5/10
Mediocrity - A lost opportunity
22 August 2005
Warning: Spoilers
In Summary:

Appallingly overt product placements. More of a commercial than a movie.

Brilliant premise - but let down by lack of any character or plot development.

The plot is treated purely as a device for standard action scenes - a bit like the plot in a seventies porn movie

Wasted the talents of a fine cast. This is down to poor direction, and script.

Far too many implausible stunts - even for a Hollywood Summer blockbuster.

As thought-provoking as Dumb and Dumberer.
