Yes, watch it tonight. This is a slick sci-fi thriller with a killer premise—a dystopian clone farm wrapped in gorgeous production design—and it delivers genuine twists that'll keep you hooked for two hours. Michael Bay directs with his usual bombast, Scarlett Johansson and Ewan McGregor carry the action beautifully, and it's exactly the kind of smart-dumb blockbuster that's perfect for a weeknight.

Plot

In 2019, Lincoln Six-Echo is a resident of a seemingly "Utopian" but contained facility. Like all of the inhabitants of this carefully-controlled environment, Lincoln hopes to be chosen to go to The Island — reportedly the last uncontaminated location on the planet. But Lincoln soon discovers that everything about his existence is a lie.
