The Isle (2018)
1/10
Misleading rating
5 March 2019
This film is not horrible, but it's amateurish, bad acting, and even worse special effects. Low budget film that tried to bite more than it could chew. I'm not sure what movie the one-sentence reviewers were watching, giving it a 9/10. The only reason I ended up watching this was because of the rating on this site. After closer investigation I noticed most of the one-sentence reviews were from the same user. It seems to be a trend now that low budget movies are getting buffered by people attached to the film to make it appear to be a quality film. It's pretty frustrating as a movie watcher to think you are going to watch a good movie only to end up with this cheap, low budget, low quality movie. I had to make an account just to warn people about the movie. Not horrible but not worth a 6 as it stands right now. And definitely not comparable to The Witch as some reviews made it sound like! It is nothing like it and not even close to. Both movies are slow, but the Witch was good, The Isle is just simply boring. And nobody is saying it's the filmmaker's fault if the movie has a low budget, but it has to be taken account to in a review!
