A disappointing version of Garland's novel

Rating: 1/10 (1 August 2000)

To be honest, I haven't read the novel, I'm going on a friend's opinion of it. We both saw the movie and neither of us liked it. It starts out okay, but quickly turns into a scary ride through some weirdo's mind -- and it's not a very convincing ride at that. The worst about this movie is that they wrecked the island where they did the filming. I found this out after I watched it or I would have boycotted it altogether. That's my two bits.
