McCinsey's Island

I'd spent the Saturday night awake, chatting to friends online, and so consequently I was feeling a little tired on Sunday morning. I was staying at a friend's house so there were two of us crashed in his room in front of the computer. We switched the TV on and crashed about 15-20 minutes into this movie.

At first I thought that the movie was a creation of my own tired, over-imaginative mind; OK this is a dream, I'm dreaming this, I can handle this, I ought to lay off the peanut M&Ms.

But no. The more we watched, the more I realized this was real. Very real.

Hulk Hogan was Hulk Hogan, usually sporting a wry little smile that suggested to me "yes I know this film is pants, I'm not taking it seriously". Robert Vaughn was trying desperately to act (doing rather well too). The remainder of the cast (yes Grace Jones, I'm mainly thinking of you) would probably have failed an audition for a Nativity Play on this performance.

But it doesn't stop there. Maybe because we didn't see the start but all kinds of plot lines didn't appear to make sense, nothing seemed to follow on from each other, I never felt any tension in the movie and upon watching the scene near the end with Grace Jones water skiing (?) onto the beach I was left wondering ... "WHY???". The dialogue was pretty poor [IMDB lists no "memorable quotes" which in this case would also make a good plot summary].

I'm left with the general thought of "why was this movie made", except as an example on how not to make a movie.

Closing thoughts. It is the worst movie I have ever seen (and I saw "Robocop 3" at the cinema!), I can't explain it any more than I already have done, you will never complain about movies again. That alone makes this movie a "Must See"!!

It is August. I'm hoping they go on to show "Santa with Muscles" at Christmas.

Hulk Hogan and Robert Vaughn are two bright points in this otherwise forgettable movie. A retired secret service agent (Hulk Hogan) is solicited by his Sherlock Holmes like partner (Robert Vaughn) to recover a boy, McCinsey's tresure, and an evil war monger (Grace Jones)

all in all two stars

Although I am a woman with a giant-sized crush on Paul Wight, I must say that this is a remarkably poor excuse for a feature film, even a B- one such as this. The plot is utterly ridiculous, the writing is wretched and the acting is truly awful. If the direction had been any less inept, this film might have come across as agreeably silly; unfortunately this is not the case. Not worth the time it takes to watch it with (for me) the sole exception of Paul Wight's all too brief appearance.

McCinsey's Island. The island is calling you. The film "McKinsey's Island" is a gripping adventure film that immerses the viewer in an atmosphere of mystery and danger. The story is about a group of researchers who find themselves on a mysterious island filled with dangerous secrets and hidden threats. The acting is good, especially in the performance of the main characters, their emotions and reactions make the plot more lively and believable. The production is dynamic, adventure scenes and tense moments keep you in suspense until the end. Visual effects and landscapes create a sense of reality and immerse you in an atmosphere of the unknown. "McKinsey's Island" is a film about courage, teamwork and overcoming fears that will appeal to fans of adventures and thrillers.

This movie stunk. I mean, it's hard to imagine seeing much worse, but Santa Claus with Muscles could do it. But what a stinker. I mean, a real bomb. The story is dumb, the dialog make the story seem great. A parrot with a food obsession? That was possibly the best part! ick!
