Bermuda Island

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.

This film is the worst I've ever seen in my life. The story, the plot, the cinematography, and the acting all indicate a director and writer with psychological issues. I've now confirmed that I won't watch any film unless it stars a respected actor who doesn't accept any scenario just for a handful of dirty dollars.

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.

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...

Right, well I have to say that the movie's cover was actually interesting enough to make me stop and take the time to sit down and watch the movie. Sure, I had never heard about it, prior to watching it.

The storyline in "Bermuda Island" was pretty straightforward. In fact, it was a rather simplistic and generic storyline actually. So writers Sonny Mahal, Michael Mahal, Robert Thompson and Adrian Milnes didn't exactly deliver anything grand or overly innovative here. And truth be told, the narrative in the movie was predictable, generic and bland.

The acting performances in "Bermuda Island" was okay enough for what the movie offered. You're not in for anything grand, mind you. And the only familiar faces on the cast list were Tom Sizemore and Noel Gugliemi, whom both were killed off very quickly in the movie. Yeah, go figure.

The creature design in "Bermuda Island" was laughably bad. It was nothing more than people in obvious body-suits. And it didn't even look good. It was like something taken out of a poor man's Live Action Role-Playing event. It looked so fundamentally bad, that it took away my desire to keep watching the movie.

Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time on the movie. I just really isn't worth the effort. I managed to endure a staggering 45 minutes of the 86 minute runtime before I tossed the towel in the ring out of sheer and utter boredom. And trust me, this is definitely not a movie that I will ever return to finish watching.

My rating of director Adam Werth's 2023 movie "Bermuda Island" lands on a two out of ten stars.
