The Island (2005) & Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
In this week’s episode of the AIPT Movies podcast, Alex, Tim, and Matt discuss Michael Bay’s relatively timid dystopian science fiction thriller, The Island! Bay trying his best to restrain himself during dialogue scenes, but going full-destructive-madman during the intense action scenes! A stacked cast that includes a playful Ewan McGregor, Scarlett Johansson at the edge of mega stardom, Sean Bean possibly dying again maybe, and a career-best performance from Djimon Hounsou! All that and more in this legitimately compelling (and possibly too prophetic) story that has a fairly shocking narrative twist if you don’t already know what the movie is about! In addition, Tim quickly recommends Clive Barker’s Lord of Illusions, while Alex gushes about Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3!
