Island of Dr. Moreau


The Island of Dr. Moreau, a touching movie about man's inner demons and love.

Rating: PG-13 Offensive to my understanding of science.
Some weird crap in this movie, so beware.

Highlights:
Val Kilmer without a shirt on.
A lot of characters you want to see die, do, in fact, die. (Now they should get started on the writers)
Mutants on drugs.
The Nobel prize is surprisingly easy to win apparently.
This may be the only movie where David Thewlis could be considered a "hero".

Recommendation:
Even with the Riff Tracks for this movie, it was still painful.
Don't eat anything before you watch this movie.
Plot Flaws:
Animals not intelligent enough to designate a toilet area outside of their own bedding are capable of conducting surgery.
The whole movie seems to be written by a 2nd grader.

This movie is as excellent today as when I saw it first in 1999.
