The Island

About The Island

In 2019, Lincoln Six-Echo is a resident of a seemingly "Utopian" but contained facility. Like all of the inhabitants of this carefully-controlled environment, Lincoln hopes to be chosen to go to The Island — reportedly the last uncontaminated location on the planet.

The Island is a 2005 science fiction thriller film directed by Michael Bay. It runs 136 minutes and was released in July 2005.

Its themes are sympathetic, love of one's life, 2010s, and transhumanism.

Ewan McGregor appears as Lincoln Six Echo, Scarlett Johansson as Jordan Two Delta, Djimon Hounsou as Albert Laurent, and Sean Bean as Dr. Bernard Merrick. The screenplay is by Alex Kurtzman and Caspian Tredwell-Owen. Produced by Parkes+MacDonald Production. It streams on Paramount+ Amazon Channel, Paramount Plus Essential, and Paramount Plus Premium in the United States.

Blade Runner, The Great Escape, and Never Let Me Go make useful companions to The Island, all filed under dystopia and genetics. TMDB voters put it at 6.7 out of 10 across 6,095 votes and it carries a PG-13 rating.
