'Monster Island' Review: A Bloody Blend of Creature Feature and War Film
Mike Wiluan's Monster Island is the phrase “understood the assignment” in its most badass and sanguinary form. Wiluan takes a survival story set during World War II and purées it with martial arts choreography and monster tropes, resulting in a lean, grisly creature feature that thrills just long enough not to get boring. The story, about enemies working together against a greater threat while learning compassion along the way, doesn’t seek to invent the narrative wheel. But it reminds us why this particular wheel has spun and endured for so long.
