Review of The Island (2006) by Xcv V — 22 Sep 2010
It indeed IS a clone of "Logan's Run" & "THX 1138".
Still Ewan McGregor is such an enjoyment to watch, Scarlet Joansson is as sexy as ever and Sean Bean is as great as always (although I am getting tired of seeing him play the villian).
Obviously like EVERY Michael Bay movie, the effects deliever especially well, but the lack of any strong supporting cast (Forgive me Steve Buscemi & Michael Clarke Duncan), and of course the fact that it rips off some of Sci-fi Greatest Hits, it just makes it hard to recommend.
Final Verdict: I remember first hearing about it way back in 2005, and now that i've finally seen it, It definately stands out as one of Michael Bay's better films (But that's not really saying much).
