A man living in a futuristic sterile colony begins to question his circumscribed existence when his friend is chosen to go to the Island, the last uncontaminated place on earth.
Lincoln Six Echo is just like everyone else - he's waiting to go to the Island, the only place left in the world to actually live a life. Thousands of people stay at a facility waiting to go to the Island. It all sounds like paradise, but Lincoln Six Echo soon discovers that there's actually a sinister purpose going on at that facility and that he must escape - but not before stopping the sinister plan.
I saw The Island quite recently and expected, from what I had read from other critics, to be watching a mindless summer blockbuster action movie. The critics, I am glad to say, were wrong. This is a well put together movie with something to please just about anyone looking for something more than action.<br/><br/>Ewan McGregor reveals a fair amount of un Hollywood humour in this movie as well as a brief glimpse into his Scottish Generation X persona. This is shown up quite well when his &#39;clone&#39; or &#39;insurance policy&#39; as McGregor&#39;s Tom Lincoln calls him, turns up at Tom Lincoln&#39;s posh house. Pity we never get to meet Scarlet&#39;s human being although we glimpse her too from one of the adverts that Johanssen made for a perfume company (!). Other players are good as well. Steve Buscemi is as he always is but Sean Bean is, in my opinion, a little bit too understated although he has a nice hard edge about him as the mad doctor of the piece.<br/><br/>The action scenes are very well realised, although I am not a big fan of hand held camera action and fast paced blink and you&#39;ll miss it filming which doesn&#39;t allow the eye to linger too much over what&#39;s going on. And my other grumble, which is typical of a lot of film makers today is the scenic helicopter swinging around on the main couple shot which has been done to death. Enough of that.<br/><br/>All in all, not bad at all. And McGregor looks so much happier doing this than any of the Star Wars films he was involved in.
As a collector of Ewan McGregor&#39;s work, it seemed inevitable that one day i would get round to watching &quot;The Island&quot;. However, i put it off for as long as possible because, having seen the disastrous write-ups, i didn&#39;t want to lower my opinion of one of our finest Scottish actors. I must say though, i was pleasantly surprised and may even go as far to say, i regret not watching this film earlier. It is, admittedly, a little slow starting, but this build up is essential in paving the way for the rest of the story. The high speed chases are brilliantly done and the love scenes delicately handled so they are tasteful. The characters are well rounded and Ewan McGregor playing 2 roles simultaneously is not only an amazing work of the blue screen but a fine performance displayed by the man himself. Scarlet Johassen also puts in an amazing performance as the lead lady. The cinematography of the final scenes is perhaps the best visuality of the 2 hours 10 minutes, but it&#39;s well worth the wait. An absolutely brilliant watch - ignore whatever you may have already read about this film! The only criticism i will make is with regards to Ewan&#39;s American accent. Stick to Scottish or English :)
Classic Bay, except it's missing the crass director's fine-tuned rhythm, his feel for adrenaline, his breakneck edits and sense of humor.
The shooting script provided by IMSDb (dated 1/13/04) states his first name is BERNARD. Other scripts give different answers, but this seems to be the definitive one. Starkweather Two Delta&#39;s sponsor, Jamal Starkweather, was a professional football player. During the escape attempt, Starkweather ran full force into a guard, knocking him aside in much the way that the real Starkweather would during a football game. Most of the guards, likely big fans of the real Starkweather, found the collision hysterical because it looked like the real Starkweather playing football.
