Movie Diary
The Island
This was J.G.'s choice, and when the credits rolled, she turned to me and apologized. I didn't think it was that bad, though! I didn't go in expecting much but they got a lot of mileage out of a not great premise. A lot of bad, unintentionally funny dialogue, but also some genuinely funny moments, like when they learned how to say "dude". It kinda reminded me a lot of old school dystopian sci fi flicks like Soylent Green more than anything recent. And it was clever how they managed to work Scarlett Johansson's real life Calvin Klein ad into the movie.
