storytelling at its worst

Rating: Null/10 (3 March 2001)

This movie is horrible. I mean, there is a huge lack of a solid plot. The movie drags on forever in the middle...no real substance here. It's a film about a bunch of selfish brats who have no worries finding jobs or living normal lives, but instead decide to "share" paradise with killers who grow drugs to sell! They have to keep their location a secret, as not to spoil it...this means, when someone almost gets killed-- don't bring in a doctor! No way, then they would know where this island is!

This film has bad written all over it. First off...how is this paradise? Wow...sometimes we barely have enough food. We spend everyday on the beach playing various sports...spend our time looking for food, trying to avoid being eaten by sharks....this is definitely not paradise, if you ask me! Secondly, film-wise, this is just another commercialized movie, made to bring in some cash. Leo is a horrible actor, in my opinion, so he doesn't help the film...the characters- you can't help but want to strangle them, and pray they all get eaten by sharks. Leo's love interest gets naked in the movie, which is pointless, there's no need to see her breasts. I mean, really. I'm not all against nudity in movies...but when it's used just to make a young stupid actress famous with young horny men, it's stupid. This is one of those cases. Anyhow...overall this movie is just boring, and it really lacks a solid plot basis.
