The Island

Lincoln Six-Echo (McGregor) is a resident of a seemingly utopian but contained facility in the mid 21st century. Like all of the inhabitants of this carefully controlled environment, Lincoln hopes to be chosen to go to the "The Island" - reportedly the last uncontaminated spot on the planet. But Lincoln soon discovers that everything about his existence is a lie.

Went to see this yesterday, and was pleasantly surprised. I'd heard it wasn't any good... but my daughter wanted to see it. Granted it wasn't the best movie ever made, but it does make you think!

Reminded me of the old Logan's Run movie in a way (http://imdb.com/title/tt0074812/).

Just a bit of movie Trivia: If you should watch Logan's Run, the bit where they escape and come up in the water fountain was filmed at the Ft. Worth Water Gardens.

Aslo, some of you may remember the drowning that happened there last summer (??) or summer before, church group from Chicago, THAT is the fountain where the drowning occured.
