Nightmare Island

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)

I was hoping not to be bored with this movie, looking at the score of 4.6/10 but I was amazed. Mystery must be the genre, not horror. There is almost no horror inside but so many unexpected things. I believe that the idea is great and the hidden idea even better. This move deserve at least 7/10. Go watch it by yourself.

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)

Granted, I was lured in by the promise of the movie's poster, the fact that it was labeled as a horror movie, plus that Michael Peña and Maggie Q was on the cast list.

Little did I know what I was in for actually. Turns out that this movie was a mess of a storyline. The character gallery was for the most part a very flaccid and pointless one, to be bluntly honest. And that gave the actors and actresses very little to work with. And it didn't help that the storyline written by Jillian Jacobs, Christopher Roach and Jeff Wadlow seemed like they were individually told to write something on a concept without talking and sparring together. It was just a mess and a pain to sit through, literally.

Not even the performances of Michael Peña, Maggie Q or Michael Rooker could do much to lift up this train wreck of a movie.

I managed to sit through the movie in its entire length, but I must admit that my attention was failing the things that happened on the screen. The storyline was just way too clumsy and incoherent to catch my attention.

It should be said that some of the visuals in the movie were actually good, but that could only do so much to salvage the rest of the movie.

While I suffered through the entire movie, I can now check it off of my watched movie list and I know for a fact that I will never be returning to watch this 2020 movie again - ever.

My rating of "Fantasy Island" lands on a very generous three out of ten stars. And I put it on three solely because of Michael Peña and Maggie Q, truth be told.
