Overview

In 2019, Lincoln Six-Echo is a resident of a seemingly “Utopian” but contained facility. Like all of the inhabitants of this carefully-controlled environment, Lincoln hopes to be chosen to go to The Island — reportedly the last uncontaminated location on the planet. But Lincoln soon discovers that everything about his existence is a lie.

Viewing Notes

A fun rewatch on my first night back home in Illinois for the holidays. This one benefits from a good audio system, as all Michael Bay explosion porn does.

The Island falls apart at the end but it’s a fun ride until then. One of the few Bay films I’m a fan of.
