{4.4\/5} “The whole reason you exist is because everyone wants to live forever. It’s the new American dream.”<\/p>\n
The Island<\/strong>, released in 2005<\/p>\n Most of the Earth’s population has been wiped out by disease, and the people who are left live in a very structured society. They eat what they’re told, work on what they’re told, and don’t fraternize too much. They all want to win the lottery — the winners get to go to the Island, the last natural area. When Lincoln Six Echo’s friend Jordan Two Delta wins, he’s suddenly worried that she’s going to be killed.<\/p>\n It’s about knowing the ins and outs of your society, even if it is dystopian. It’s about a world holding a big secret.<\/p>\n The opening section gives you an interesting introduction to the world. In the chase section there’s some pretty intense action. It has a great look to it.<\/p>\n It’s about how one person, or two, can make a difference. It’s about who is human and who is not.<\/p>\n Michael Clarke Duncan and Ethan Phillips have small but fun parts.<\/p>\n
