Just how dire is Hollywood’s dependence on intellectual property? The “Sonic the Hedgehog” movie wasn’t even this week’s most desperate attempt to bring an old brand into multiplexes. Not that rebooting ABC’s “Fantasy Island” for the big screen was an inherently bad idea — the 1977 television show’s “‘Twilight Zone’ in paradise” vibe is always sunny and evergreen — but there’s a real whiff of desperation to the way that Blumhouse has dusted it off, and this slapdash programmer is such a complete shrug of a movie that it feels almost defiantly apathetic from the moment it starts. Dumb in ways that range from inane to insulting, but always growing duller by the minute, this new “Fantasy Island” is only…

Way more fun than I was led to believe, and not nearly deserving of all these 1 star reviews I see plastered all over this site by swill peddling meme lords. It’s not great, but it’s like eating a three completely different candy bars at once lol—filled with nutty layers and gooey caramel. Saccharine stupidity. I used to watch the OG show and the nods were fun, plus I love my girl Lucy Hale so yeah… this isn’t vying for any awards but who cares? Anyways, I watched that genre/critical darling movie The Lodge the other day and this was a million times more interesting and better looking—and most importantly it didn’t try to hide its Kubricks Turn of the Screw idealology…

Goes from boring bad to weird bad and then back to boring bad. Is Jeff Wadlow the worst working filmmaker?

my favorite part was when they jokingly called that one dude a racist and he acted so offended and then it turns out he’s a shitty cop who wrote down ENLISTING for his ultimate fantasy

Rotten Tomatoes: 9% Metacritic Metascore: 21 IMDb: 4.8 13/100 Release Date: 14 February 2020 Distributor: Columbia Pictures Budget: $7M Worldwide Gross: $47.3M Total Film Awards: TBD 2020 Ranked 2020 Horror Films Ranked Mr. Roarke: “The problem with having it all is that usually someone else wants it too.” My fantasy is for Jeff Wadlow to one day direct a horror film that is actually halfway decent, but hey, considering this film made more than 6x its production budget, it must be doing something right, right? Wrong. Although there is much to hate and despise here, the one aspect I did like was how the movie explored the human side of regret, resentment, and how we become entrapped in the past,…

I went to see a movie in the theater y’all! That’s all thanks to Parker Brennon for getting me to be social and I hope it’s the first of many movie dates! And I loved this! I dunno, maybe I just lack the analytical movie critiquing skills to give an appropriate review, but from a purely entertainment standpoint I really really enjoyed it! I don’t even get all the negativity and I’m not sure if it’s because other people are too harsh or because I’m not harsh enough and it doesn’t matter because I’m just glad I got to see a fun movie on the big screen. It’s totally ridiculous and doesn’t really make a single lick of sense if you think…

Une adaptation horrifique d’une série qui avait pourtant un concept intéressant : une île capable de réaliser les fantasmes les plus profonds de ses visiteurs. Le problème, c’est que le film transforme cette idée en un mélange assez classique de thriller, d’horreur et de fantastique qui manque souvent de personnalité. L’idée de départ possède pourtant énormément de potentiel. Chaque personnage arrive sur l’île avec un souhait différent, ce qui aurait pu permettre de construire plusieurs histoires horrifiques vraiment originales. Certaines…

Alright for a scary movie, I was surprised by the twist and I think the ending tied it up very well. Overall for scares there was none. I honestly thought it was a PG13 with what it was lacking

I think it’s just a pretty lazy film with not particularly good dialogue.

Pretty dumb. Everyone story connected and all the fantasies bleed together cause of that. And anytime you get what you wish for it always gonna be a fucked up version.

I saw this back when it premiered in theaters and hated it. 6 years removed, I decided to give it another try. Shockingly, it’s better than I thought it was. The mystery of the burned man and the dripping water was setup and elevated really well. It’s not rushed or incomplete. The cast is spot on and enjoyable. No one really gives an Oscar winning performance though. The twist is actually much more solid than I remembered though the last…

Un horror che prova a trasformare la vecchia serie televisiva in un racconto più oscuro. L’idea dell’isola capace di realizzare i desideri è interessante, ma il film accumula troppe svolte e non tutte funzionano. Buona atmosfera, risultato altalenante. English A horror film that attempts to turn the classic TV series into something darker. The idea of an island that grants wishes is intriguing, but the movie piles on too many twists and not all of them work. Good atmosphere, uneven result.

1.8 is SO harsh!!! I thought this was fun 🙂 sure some of the jokes were very unfunny but I really liked the concept and thought it was executed pretty well. it’s good for what it is

Cheesy as hell but I was expecting that Does JD not disappear when he leaves the island? Is it like a life for a life thing? I’m so confused about the rules that they established being blatantly broken in the final scene I was actually surprised by the multiple twists more so by the Lucy hale twist. I was definitely intrigued the whole time trying to figure out what was going to happen. Yeah the ending really confused me

A pretty generic film. I put it just where it’s at because it’s in offensive to the original source of material as someone who grew up watching the show with my parents. Though I think with better script this idea could have flourished.

Honestly didn’t think this movie was THAT bad… It wasn’t necessarily horror I feel like it should’ve been categorized as a psychological thriller or sci-fi. It’s an interesting concept and I feel like they did a good job portraying it. The movie did feel very packed at some points also very confusing, but I feel like towards the end everything got explained. I was bored at some parts of the movie (white mans wish) but I think everything had me…

Un film intéressant qui choisi de présenter l’origine de la célèbre série L’île fantastique qui a notamment fait connaître et rendu célèbre l’acteur français souffrant de nanisme Hervé Villechaize, une véritable star des années 70-80 aux États-unis. L’aspect horreur/fantastique fonctionne bien et donne un divertissement plutôt original et agréable sans pour autant être splendide. Un bon “film pop-corn” comme on les aime

Poor Lucy Hale: This was the last time she appeared in a theatrical release. A horror-fied remake of the ‘70s TV show Fantasy Island. She has a bichon! Bichon owners are among the best people. She deserves better in life! Remember Charlotte McKinney? For about five minutes in the late 2010s she was the Big-Boobed Blonde du jour, after Kate Upton and before Sydney Sweeney. Anyway, she’s in this.

Going in the only thing I really remembered about this movie was the final joke. It’s watchable for a while, but it’s get progressively worse until the extremely stupid and nonsensical villain reveal. It’s not a surprise considering Wadlow has never made a good movie.

I have zero complaints. Loved the plot twists. Loved the storyline. I absolutely loved the overall theme of living without regret, but also forgiving yourself and others for past mistakes. I also loved the science fiction/horror/action genre-crossover. SATISFIED WATCHER! 😛

Fantasy Island is a horror movie that completely squanders a potentially fascinating starting point. The concept of an island that grants wishes by turning them into nightmares could have generated psychological tension and moral ambiguity. Instead, the film uses stereotypical characters, stilted dialogue, and predictable twists well in advance. The various subplots intertwine in a confusing way, failing to build real suspense or even a modicum of narrative coherence. Even visually, everything appears surprisingly flat. The island, which should be…

Fantasy Island had a massive trump card in its hands – a fantastic premise. The concept of a tropical island fulfilling secret desires but twisting them into nightmares genuinely hooked me at first. The initial atmosphere of mystery and the arrival of the guests worked great and got me hyped for a tense, psychological ride. But then everything went downhill fast. The promising start was replaced by boredom and absolute chaos. If you came here looking for a horror movie,…

When I saw this in the theatre in 2020, I was still a couple years away from finally getting a CPAP machine, so my sleep apnea was in full swing. I’d say I slept through 80% of it. I was probably better off. Michael Pena innocent

I am aghast that I enjoyed it. It’s twisty in a fun way, characters that you enjoy, even the ones you want to see die. Plus it’s always a joy to see Michael Pena and Maggie Q! Did not care for the bully redemption, but thematically, I get it. This is worth a watch! Also lmao at the Tattoo gag, I thought that the multiple “the plane!” references were all we were gonna get.

Wildly disappointing to hear this is a remake of the original series. I’m not that familiar with the original series but this was strange. It really made no sense either. Like the internal logic just falls apart by poking a single hole into it. It also feels like it was made by an algorithm, not AI or by committee. Maybe this illustrates it better: it’s as if it were focus tested 5-10 minutes at a time and all changes were…

‘Fantasy Island’ is a lecithal revamp of the 1977 melodrama with a Blumhouse horror rejiggering (the storyline of paterfamilias estrangement in the Venezuelan jungle is too puissant for this jalopy) and it is such a caponized misfire that entry wounds on the zombies are strategically delitescent below the frame. As with most oblational-sacrificial-lamb pictures on a tropical locale, the film is tympaniform with tribal drums and the victims are lobotomized (e.g. The first festinating casualty ceases mid-escape to idiotically contraindicate…

Cool concept… disappointing movie. I kept thinking, “okay, maybe it’ll get better now,” but it never really did. The characters were so underdeveloped that I never got attached to any of them. Every time someone made a decision, it felt like they were doing it just to move the plot forward instead of acting like real people. I wanted to care about their stories, but the movie never gave me a reason to. The twists were easy to see coming,…

Okay fine. I don’t know why the films I’ve been enjoying recently gets low scores here. Including this one? So I searched about this, and most negative comments are coming from people who have watched the original series. As someone who hasn’t watched, or has no ideas what the original series was, I can say that this was a pretty enjoyable film. I liked the character, although some may need a little more depth, they’re still likeable and not bad…

Écouté en 2023 Fantasy Island Des gens se rendent sur l’île fantastique dans le but de réaliser leurs rêves les plus fous. En effet, l’île aurait le pouvoir de réaliser ces rêves. Les invités n’y croient pas trop jusqu’à ce qu’ils se rendent comptent que leurs rêves se réalisent mais pas de la façon qu’ils aimeraient. J’ai trouvé ça ordinaire. Il y avait du potentiel mais il n’a pas été à la hauteur de ce que je m’attendais. Je lui donne un 5.5/10 et il n’est pas à revoir.

An attempt of turning an old tv show that did have some horror elements to it into a modern horror movie — I don’t think even being it’s own thing would’ve saved it, terrible movie from start to finish with inconsistencies all around.

[Gimmick review #20] A group of contest winners head to Fantasy Island, where they’re promised the opportunity to live out their wildest fantasy. The only catch is that once a fantasy starts, it must reach its “natural conclusion.” It’s a careful-what-you-wish-for-narrative, and that description about sums up the entire movie. The performances aren’t noteworthy but they also aren’t noticeably bad. The characters are distinguishable. One saving grace for the film is its production design. It isn’t too over the top,…
