Bermuda Island

I had to PAY to watch this rubbish!

Normally I trust IMDB ratings but not again. I've seen better films rated 4.3! This most assuredly is NOT a film deserving of a 7 rating.

7 ratings are normally for high budget films with decent or good actors, not this lineup of amateurs.

Poor dialogue and acting, campy crappy special effects and WTH happened to Tome Sizemore?? He's definitely a few sizes more than he used to be and his "acting" is worse than a 5th grade school play.

The airport and plane scenes were almost amusing but the film is laughable, if you could actually find anything funny about this film, it would be the rave teviews.

Sorry...don't waste your time or $ on this one.

My experience with Bermuda Island left me somewhat perplexed. Let me be clear, it's evident from the outset that this is a production constrained by a modest budget. The performances are lackluster, the characters lack depth, and the storyline feels somewhat disorganized.

Regrettably, Tom Sizemore's presence in the film is fleeting, and his role appears disconnected from the main plot, seemingly interchangeable with any actor, which was disappointing, considering he's the lone renowned actor in the cast.

On a more positive note, the classic-style monsters featured in the movie pleasantly surprised me. While not of top-tier quality, the monster costumes were surprisingly passable, especially given the constraints of a small budget production like this.

Furthermore, the film's conclusion held an element of unpredictability, adding a layer of intrigue. While it didn't personally resonate with me, it undeniably introduced a plot twist. In my assessment, Bermuda Island comfortably fits within the 3-4 star range; I've certainly seen worse films.

It says Action/Adventure as the genre here on IMDB, but it played out as a Horror/Comedy instead. The acting is abysmal and the creatures are hysterical, especially how they place a towel over their private parts while the actors are clearly wearing green rubber suits.

The blood looked laughably like spaghetti sauce and one thing I couldn't figure out was why most of the cast was noticeably overweight. Were they supposed to be a Weight Watchers group or something?

It was distracting because most of them were so large that I wondered if it was just a coincidence or if it had something to do with the story. In any case, I knew this was a mindless, mediocre film going in and just wanted something on to pass the time while doing other things. If you're looking to be scared or even for some suspense, you'll be sorely disappointed.

If you're looking for something to pass the time and laugh at while watching, this is a good choice. And there's some adequate boobies too. 2 stars for the unintentional comedy.

There is literally nothing redeemable in this movie. Perhaps I can't actually make this claim because I doubt I'll be able to make it through to the end.

The first 10 minutes are so bad, I can only see this going down hill fast.

I honestly can't believe someone paid money to make this movie.

Here's a delicious piece of dialog from this fim:

(we're on an airplane. The pilot comes out of the cabin.)

An young adult woman says to the flight attendant (who just got hit on by the captain)

"excuse me" she says. "was that t he pilot?"

Flight attendant: "yeah"

Young woman: "are we going to die?"

Flight attendant: "... it's just that he probably had to use the restroom, or get a drink or something"

I mean, who writes this garbage?

Every bit of dialog is just like this.

It's like getting hit in the face with a hammer.

No subtlty... just blurting out one unrealistic line after another.

I guess people have to start somewhere with their acting career. I just have to imagine putting this on your acting credits might end up backfiring...

I watched this because I thought it was Tom Sizemore's last movie. Turns out he has another 31 films coming out this year!

The guy was taking any role at the end of his life that required no effort on his part. He's nearly unrecognizable in this film. Grossly overweight and his palor is sheet-white. He actually looks like that ghoul guy from Carnival of Souls. No kidding.

The movie was actually pretty decent for the first third or so but once they crash on the island the monster enters -- which harkend back to the look of Corman or AIP horror flicks of the 60's and 70's.

That's when I bailed. It took a sharp left hand turn into garbage.
