6/10 - despite overwhelmingly negative reviews, I was thoroughly entertained by the this off-the-walls BSC thriller even though I could have easily reduced a substantial amount of the runtime (unnecessary and dragged out storylines)
The imdb ratings here do not make this film justice. I believe that, like me, a lot of the viewers were intrigued by the promising beginning and severely disappointed by the really bad ending.
The story is about a group of strangers coming on a mysterious island where they are each promised to live their biggest fantasy. Here we get a sense of how confused were the makers of the movie: goofy comedy, akin to Scooby Doo, with dark and ominous hints, like a horror story, a distinct video game feel like the Jumanji reboots, but also the promise of emotional catharsis and a deeper lesson at the end. This could go in a variety of directions, some of them really good. Unfortunately the film continues to remain confused until the very beginning, where a completely artificial and nonsensical twist pretty much destroys every premise of the story.
Bottom line: the film was entertaining, the acting good, but the plot was a confused mess.

A group of guests arrive at the Fantasy Island, a paradisiacal tropical resort hosted by the mysterious Mr. Roarke (Michael Peña) and his staff, with the promise that their secret fantasies or dreams come true in the island. He interviews each new arrival to make clear that their fantasies just end when concluded and to confirm each wish. Gwen Olsen (Maggie Q) regrets the day she said no to the proposal of her boyfriend. Melanie Cole (Lucy Hale) seeks revenge on her high-school mate Sloane Maddison (Portia Doubleday). Patrick Sullivan (Austin Stowell) dreams on being a soldier like his father. The gay Brax Weaver (Jimmy O. Yang) and his brother J. D. Weaver (Ryan Hansen) just want to party. But soon they realize that there is a price to pay to the island for the wishes come true.
"Fantasy Island" is a highly entertaining fantasy film with good twists. The Metascore and the IMDb User Rating are ridiculous, misguiding the viewers. The plot is a combination of "The Twilight Zone" with the franchise "House" (1985) and not a horror movie. Fortunately, I did not read the reviews in IMDb and I look forward waiting for a sequel. My vote is seven.

The movie is not that bad and it is entertaining but it's not worth anticipating its just the kind of movie you watch on Netflix when you're bored and don't know what to watch
Nothing in this movie makes sense. the plot overly convoluted and filled with holes. the movie contradicts it's own rules. odd things happen that are never explained or brought up again. this movie is straight madness. and it wasn't a tiny bit scary. plus there were numerous parts where they telegraph what's about to happen. anyone who has seen movies before knows exactly what's coming next.
the only reason i didn't give it a one is because i found some entertainment value from it. there were one or two cool ideas. and there was one conversation between two soldiers that really worked for me (1 viewing, 7/1/2020)

- TriviaWhen Melanie is in the elevator, the music playing is the original 'Fantasy Island' theme song.
- ErroresWhen they are taken to the glowing rock, Melanie's fantasy is shown as torturing Sloane when it should have shown her fantasy for revenge.
- Citas
Mr. Roarke: The problem with having it all is that usually someone else wants it too.
- Créditos curiososWhen the Columbia Pictures and Blumhouse Productions logos appear, a distorted version of the La isla de la fantasía (1977) theme music can be heard. The Columbia Pictures and Blumhouse Productions logo plays normally on the home video release.
- Versiones alternativasoriginally cut for PG-13 in theaters, an R-rated version was released on home video. It added in all of the cut content, including more bloody violence, and drug use.
