I had high expectation for this film - good actors, good story, exciting action. Well - the acting wasn't so good (McGreggor's goofy smile annoys me), the story was interesting, but the action was slow going until the end. Still, it... Full review

Besides Batman, this is probably the smartest, most entertaining movie in a long while. McGregor and Johansson have awesome on-screen chemistry and both do a superb job in their roles. The story line is unique and smart, and the special effects... Full review

I thought this movie was touching and made me question the future of our society and our morals. Although, I did find the "sample society" they created unrealistic. The fact that cammeras werent located all over the building stood out as... Full review

The island, a mix of sci-fi and pure action is among a crop of films that show a surprising amount of humor within the action. Like Mr. & Mrs. Smith and Batman Begins, this is a great summer film. Ewan McGregor... Full review

it ought to, because The Island is better off dead.....To discuss the shortcomings of The Island in any detail, a few plot points unfortunately have to be disclosed.....Any writer who puzzles over the individual elements of a film for too long -....the bogus memories the clones have been imprinted with is a closely guarded secret or just the kick-off point for perfunctory action set pieces..... ...

Whats most striking about The Island is how lacking the film is in creativity.
If youve seen these films, even the ones that arent classics, youve seen a better version of The Island.
Visually, Bay can come up with some impressive shots.
