Review of The Island (2006) by Malcolm E — 03 Jun 2013
An action-packed adventure from Michael Bay, The Island is a smart and exciting science fiction thriller. When two members of a futuristic community escape, they discover that they've been lied to about the outside world and that they're not who they think they are.
Featuring a strong cast, the film stars Ewan McGregor, Scarlett Johansson, Sean Bean, and Steve Buscemi. The special effects are especially impressive, and present a spectacular futuristic vision. Bay also delivers some incredible action sequences that are fast-paced and intense.
Additionally, the science fiction themes are used quite effectively, as is the score. Well-crafted and thought-provoking, The Island is a powerful film.
