0116: The Island

Published: Sept. 10, 2019, 5 a.m.

There was a time 2019 felt like the future and not the horribly crushing present, and that time was 2005, when Michael Bay had a go at 'proper' science fiction with The Island. We watch as Ewan McGregor and Scarlet Johansson do their best with Bay's typical brand of complete awfulness, lose count of how many inappropriate product placement deals were signed, and only have to use the censor beep once! Next week we're watching Logan's Run, check out a trailer here! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USADM5Gk9Gs) GIVE US 5 STARS ON ITUNES!
