Memorable, crazy movie
If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
ISLE OF DESTINY is a B-movie type thriller about an aviatrix, played with relish by June Lang, who gets entangled in the schemes of a criminal boss and who ends up crash-landing her plane on a Pacific island as a result. This movie has quite a deal of incident but much of it is low rent, with a sluggish pace instead of excitement and a general paint-by-numbers feel.The cast is a good one and the actors certainly put in the right effort. However, this movie doesn't really know what it wants to be. It celebrates female independence and spirit on the one hand but then dates things with the jungle girl character attacking people with a blow dart, who feels like she belongs in a Tarzan flick. Otherwise it's a distinctly average movie.
