Underrated because it's Bay


If The Island was made by a new director he would have been hailed by critics as the next Kubrick... but because it's a Michael Bay movie, it is ignored...

Not true. It doesn't matter who directed. The movie was awful.

Afterwards I was all like: What the fuck was this? A good, no strike that, A FUCKING GREAT Michael Bay film.

reply

No, it's pretty bad. Better than the stupid low-budget "Clonys" film it's based on, but that's the nicest thing I can say about it

I saw this movie in the theaters when it was released. I think it is a very entertaining movie and I was surprised it didn't do better.
