The Island plot
"Your time will come..."
2019. Lincoln Six-Echo (McGregor) is running for his life, a life he knows nothing about. The authorities of the high-security facility where he was kept for his safety had said that he would one day live in paradise, the last habitable spot on Earth. But everything they said was a lie. Together with Jordan Two-Delta (Johansson), they will have to run from their deadly pursuers in a totally unknown outside world. Afterwards they unravel a mysterious intrigue around a burning topical theme. "You have been chosen. The island awaits you."

An interesting fact that has been worked out well. The story is not only topical but also emotionally charged. You're really going to sympathize with those innocent clones.
Especially in the first part of the movie, the second part has too much action for me and suddenly the two clones become purebred action heroes who can fall from a tall building without leaving a scratch.
Scarlett Johansson looks very attractive and she acts very well too. Also Ewan McGregor (who I really only knew from Moulin Rouge -yes, my girlfriend made me watch that movie!) is also quite good. I highly recommend this movie!

Funny that they are now broadcasting this film again (Veronica) during this Corona debacle and additional rumors about Agenda 21. In the film you can find some elements regarding mind control, keeping people in isolation, scaring the unknown, contact restrictions, programming into 'ideal people', controlling thoughts etc....
Nice movie that looks better than those Transformer monstrosities of Michael Bay. Fierce chase scene was like Bad Boys 2, only now it was train wheels and no cars 
And Scarlet Johansson just remains a nice thing, may I say that in this #Me Too era.

Sounds a bit like a more modern 1984 George Orwell tale, if I'm to be honest. In any case, it does have something to do with it. Lies and deceit to make people obey. Very current film and a bit of a hidden gem. I think I just need to see Soldiers of Benghazi by Bay, but this is one that is a bit different compared to his other films. Some spectacular action here and there but the film has a very good story. The ending is also great. An excellent movie. Ewan McGregor is slowly becoming one of my favorite actors. The chemistry with Scarlett Johansson is also strong.
