The Island (Ewan MacGregor/Scarlett Johansson)
Watched this one last night. Almost worth renting to drool over the interior design of the bachelor pad that you see towards the end of the film. Scarlett's pretty cute too.
Synopsis: Ewan works out hes cloned, grabs ladyfriend, Ewan and lady escape, get pursued, evade capture, save the world. Usual plot.
Anyway, that aside, it's a good action film and of course typically predictable although for me there were quite a few edge of the seat moments during the on-foot chase scenes. Some great fight moments where you're really thinking - that's gotta hurt. Wont spoil it for you with details.
You see the Cien get a bit of a workout, which is a nice bonus.
Overall 8/10 from someone who likes this kind of film.
Better than: XXX (Vin Diesel)
Worse than: The Bourne Supremacy
