Fun but not very realistic. When do they eat???

If you see the picture and you think about sex it is the last thing you would do in your life if you find yourself in an island as a robinson crusoe.

Then what about the wardrobe, the festivals they make and the ones that don't have beard? And all the food, where did they came from?

Apart from those non realistic ideas, you find a film with well done entertainment, wich I think is the most important. It is not a boring movie. And that's a very good thing those days. Time pasess quickly and it is fun. A production made with little money but the screenplaying is good and the way the director who makes also the screenplay, is a good one. That and a good acting is a thing that absolutely brings the picture to something more, otherwise it would be a boring movie.

6 stars out of 10.

Feminist Perspective

This is in certain ways a disturbing and potentially controversial film and I had expected to find more than one comment here. Stories about shipwrecked survivors on tropical islands tend to be presented either as romantic idylls (sea, sun and scantily clad young people, e.g. The Blue Lagoon) or as dystopics in which the island becomes a petri dish for the darkest aspects of the human psyche to seethe in (e.g. The Lord of the Flies). Sometimes man comes out on top as in the films Hell in the Pacific, or, more recently, Cast Away, that both deal with overcoming the odds and escaping the island prison, but all the actors in those films were men. Throw in a woman in the equation and everything changes.

The Last Island gives an unadulterated feminist take on the castaway motive in which the evil inherent in men gets the better of their desire to escape the island. This is a very interesting process to watch and not one you can remain neutral towards.

Rough watch

Cult Epics has released several Marleen Gorris movies, including Broken Mirrors and A Question of Silence. This is the best of the three that I have watched.

The world has ended and seemingly the only survivors are those who escape from a plane crash: Sean (Paul Freeman), Frank (Mark Hembrow), military man Nick (Kenneth Colley), naturalist Pierre (Marc Berman), Jack (Ian Tracey), Joanna (Shelagh McLeod) and Mrs. Godame (Patricia Hayes). They figure that if they're the last one left, every man should impregnate Joanna, which doesn't seem like something she's interested in.

Produced by Alex Maas and shot by cinematographer Marc Felperlaa, who filmed his Amsterdamned, this gets dark as Nick tries to impose religion on the island. When faced with some of the men being gay or becoming gay as the days become months and years, something bad has to happen. But man, it gets really horrible for everyone. This is a bigger movie from Gorris but it's also really well done.
