This stunning dark comedy, The Island, succeeds both narratively and technically. The screenplay is smart, with twists and turns and some sharp satire towards humanity, capitalism and brainwash. The cinematography and editing are much mature. Wang Baoqiang continues his run as the best and the most popular comedian of his generation, and Lay marks an important step as he transforms from a singer-dancer to an actor. Huang Bo, on the other hand, simply shocks the world as a director, just like what he did twelve years ago in Crazy Stone as an actor.®
At first, after j watched the movie I was like not interested as I feel like, hmm so this is an multiplayer cast away film? I thought Tom Thanks version was more than enough and it was very impressive. However, after I watch the movie, my perception towards the movie change, it was indeed a good movie.
