Storyline

In 2019, Lincoln Six-Echo is a resident of a seemingly "Utopian" but contained facility.

But Lincoln soon discovers that everything about his existence is a lie.

Lincoln Six Echo and the Utopian Redemption. Lincoln Six Echo is having vivid dreams about a past existence, here in this Utopian world he lives in, he's starting to question the function of his world. In this perfectly formed existence the inhabitants dream of winning the lottery, the prize? Relocation to an outside paradise known as The Island. After stumbling upon something sinister, Lincoln escapes with fellow inmate Jordan Two Delta, and now the consequences for both of them are as dangerous as it is for the rulers of this strange and intriguing place. If you are entering a movie that is directed by Michael Bay then one can reasonably assume you know what you are going to get, cue explosions, ear splitting sound mix and a host of carnage set pieces. Bay's formula works and mostly his efforts have entertained the popcorn masses. So it's interesting to find that "The Island" does have some intellectual nous in amongst the Bayhem that the director is famed for. Working from a tantalising cloning story written by Caspian Tredwell-Owen (though the similarities to Robert Fiveson's "The Clonus Horror" resulted in a law suit being filed), "The Island" now more than ever is highly engrossing sci-fi in premise, where certainly the ethics of the story's core are worth scrutinising. One of course can argue that Bay was the wrong director for such interesting material, and yes it's a point to note that the characters and plot arcs are not given any depth or a serious second glance, but really we are here for the bang to go with the buck are we not?. Ewan McGregor (Lincoln) and Scarlett Johansson (Jordan) play it just about right, the bemusement of their situation is coupled with daring do heroics, while suitably tongue in cheek performances come from Sean Bean, Djimon Hounsou and a picture stealing Steve Buscemi. This is not a film that is easy to recommend because it can frustrate as much as it entertains, but entertain it does, and with big screen TVs and glorious home cinema a staple requirement for the movie fanatic, "The Island" is something of an essential purchase - check out the highly octane outrageousness of the road pursuit here, it's fabulous through the speakers. A serious topic is given a nonsense sheen for sure, but hell what a blast it is. 7/10
