The I-Land

See, i don't remember where but i remember reading somewhere for chaos to build up the characters need to give wrong unexpected decisions. I guess that's the motto of this series. But it is applying it wrong, really wrong. I guess this is what happens when the creators are not down to earth and trying to create "art" rather than being familiar. Every decision the characters make are laughable. Every act they proceed is unfamiliar and unreal. The four i gave is for the crew that had to work on that conditions.

For around 6 years, TV Series "Lost" remained on my watchlist, but unfortunately, it was not available on any OTT platform, leaving me unable to watch it. While I had watched several good movies in the same genre during my quest for "Lost," such as "Welcome to the Jungle" and "Cast Away," both were good, the latter stood out as an absolute classic gem.

This time, I discovered an entire series that piqued my interest. The scenic locations portrayed in the series were truly spectacular and visually arresting. The name itself allured me, promising a great experience. Sometimes, we do watch contents based on the first-look and the name, however, they can be deceiving and could fool us.

Unfortunately, the writing in the series proved to be quite lackluster, greatly diminishing the potential of the entire script. The pace of the story's development was slow, and it failed to truly captivate me. Consequently, I couldn't help but feel disappointed.

Despite a few glorious moments and attractive scenes, including those featuring girls in bikinis, they couldn't salvage the overall justice of the series. Regrettably, I would have to rate it a mere 3.5/10.

The ideia is good, I think they could have done a lot more with it. Negative coments are a bit strong, its not that bad. I didnt go nuts for this series but its definitly watchable.

Poor acting, poor direction, and ridiculous dialogue. The characters are completely unlikeable and unrelatable. I don't see this show going anywhere, tbh.

After watching all 7 episodes in one day, this made me wonder "what was the point of making this?" This could have had a lot of potential but tried to hard to not be like "Lost" that it comes off as a cheap movie version of Lost. I think all the writers that were fired on Lost all got together, came up with all the ideas that didn't work, found the one executive in charge of programming at Netflix that never saw a single episode of Lost & convinced them to fund it. They even write in some blatant references to Lost in the first episode.

This show could have been done far more enticing things if it had been expanded to 13 episodes. They really could have amped up the mystery of what was happening if they had actual time to expand the whole story. Instead they give away all the mystery by the 4th episode and after that there was no point for the last 3.

Very disappointing for what it is and what it could have been.
