Pianifica la tua fuga
Alla metà del XXI secolo, dopo un disastro ecologico mondiale, i sopravvissuti sono costretti a vivere in un'area protetta in cui, per il loro benessere, la loro esistenza quotidiana è costantemente sorvegliata e monitorata. L'unico modo di uscire da questa prigione è essere scelti per andare sull'Isola, l'unico luogo della terra scampato al disastro e rimasto incontaminato. Lincoln Sei-Echo e Jordan Due-Delta sono amici e nessuno dei due ha idea di cosa ci sia fuori dal luogo dove vivono da sempre. Lincoln però, comincia a porsi alcune domande sulla propria vita e sulle restrizioni cui è oggetto. Con terrore, scopre che tutto quello che li circonda, persino l'isola che tutti sognano, è una menzogna, che tutti valgono meno di niente e sono morti già prima di nascere. Insieme a Jordan, evade allora alla scoperta del mondo esterno, mai conosciuto e, innamorati, scoprono cosa significhi sentirsi braccati e dover lottare per la sopravvivenza...
Cast Completo di The Island
Ewan McGregor
Lincoln Six Echo / Tom Lincoln
Ewan McGregor delivers a compelling dual performance in Michael Bay's science fiction thriller "The Island," portraying the characters of Lincoln Six Echo and Tom Lincoln with a nuanced distinction that anchors the film's exploration of identity and autonomy. As Lincoln Six Echo, McGregor captures the innocence and curiosity of a sheltered clone, confined within the sterile environment of a dystopian facility, yearning for a life of freedom and understanding. His transformation into Tom Lincoln, the wealthy, charismatic original from whom Lincoln Six Echo was cloned, showcases McGregor's range as he adopts a more assertive demeanor, imbuing Tom with a confident swagger that starkly contrasts with the naivety of his counterpart. McGregor's performance is pivotal in eliciting empathy for the plight of the clones, as he grapples with the existential questions of self-discovery and the right to life, while also highlighting the moral ambiguities of a society obsessed with perfection and extension of life at the expense of human dignity. His portrayal lends depth to the action-packed narrative, ensuring that the human element remains at the forefront of this futuristic tale.
Scarlett Johansson
Jordan Two Delta / Sarah Jordan
