White Island

Set on the party island of ibiza, the makers of the film could not decide if it was a comedy, romance or straight up thriller, the film could of been set on the east coast of england and some viewers would not of known any different because despite ibiza being known for its beautiful sunsets, clubs and music they used limited locations and an unrecognisable soundtrack . Half way through, the film went down the clichéd gangster route where the lead actor has to rescue the damsel in distress by then i was nodding off. The only high point was by actor Owain Arthur who did well with his small time on screen.

This movie starts off as a buddy comedy then switches to comedy attempts action thriller moves to drama while being a rom-com and goes back to action thriller to coming of age. While I praised the attempt to hit most genres, you never knew when to take it seriously or not. There was never tension during the 'action thriller' scenes and you did not realize something was a supposed to be funny until after the scene was over(and at most it was chuckle).

I do not feel like it was bad or that I lost time in my life, but I would have never watched it had I known what it was.
