Whoops. Fixed. Not quite the same though as I doubt many people are reading this thread that haven't seen the movie by now.

Re: "The Island" - Michael Bay without Bruckheimer

Some science fiction movies have made predictions that came true.

This movie predicted the Kinect.

So did Back to the Future II. Remember the scene where Marty goes into the 80s retro cafe and plays the Hogan's Alley arcade game, and two kids are watching him play and comment "You have to use your hands? Its a baby's toy!"

Liked it a lot too. The final fight felt rushed and stupid. In the commentary, Bay said that they basically ran out of time and/or money to finish what they wanted to do. I think it was obvious.

Yeah, I think The Island is one of Bay's best movies.
