The Island

Has anyone seen The Island? I've heard some people just don't seem to like Michael Bay. Why, though? When I saw The Island for the first time today, I was very surprised that I enjoyed it. I found it great (although not excellent) with the way science was explained, the various action scenes and the acting of the two main characters. What are everyone's thoughts about Michael Bay and this film?

The Island is a complete rip off of some other movie. I've heard people talk about it a lot but I can't remember the name of the movie he riped off. He actually had to go to court over the whole thing.

I've never seen the movie myself but I really don't like anything Micheal Bay has done.

I don't like Michael Bay for one reason. He is all special effects and no real plot or character development. I can see how his films can appeal to an audience, but alas, I am not in that audience.Samwel_X

They're robots that can transform and they are trying to gain control over the allspark. (whatever it's called)

What the hell are you expecting? To get to know Megatron's deepest and darkest secrets?

Well, I read that Michael Bay uses some idea that was present in another film and then chucks it into his. Maybe he does but I have to give him a thumbs up for The Island. It got a decent score on IMDb anyway.Thorpe89

Do you recommend it to others?horgen123
