The Island

Un film totalement superflu et prévisible, un gaspillage de talent du côté des créateurs et acteurs, un gaspillage du temps des spectateurs et un gaspillage d'argent à tous les niveaux. La seule explication logique pour la création d'Ostrov serait le désir de l'équipe de voyager dans une destination exotique. Mais ça, chacun peut le faire sans avoir à en dériver un film inutile !

I gave it six minutes and seven seconds, but then I foolishly managed to last until the end. My mistake. A lot has been stolen in similar films, and when they even copied the mood development from the last quarter of Swept Away, I started hoping that they would finally be rescued. That island... From those unpleasant characters who are often annoyingly dense and, when overcoming crises, divide up the spoils like a bunch of idiots. If Wilson were there with them, he would get punctured and roll away to drown in the tide. (27/11/2023)

Jiří Langmajer and Jana Plodková are fantastic in their roles. Initially, Langmajer’s character is such a jerk, it's almost unbelievable. I bet he had to channel some of the jerks he’s encountered in his theater days for this role. As the story unfolds, their relationship develops in a surprisingly pleasant way. It’s a nice change of pace and a great film to relax with. (29/08/2023)
