Unfortunately, the story quickly devolves into a tedious survival flick in which impossibly beautiful female prisoners (all clad in skin-tight jeans, and sporting impeccably managed hair) either bed or battle a host of diversely macho men. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Still.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Still-1024x568.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"355\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-68948\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Still-1024x568.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Still-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Still-128x71.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Still-768x426.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Still-1536x852.png 1536w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Still-487x270.png 487w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Still-1038x576.png 1038w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Still.png 1809w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The one exception to this latter category is Tom Selleck&#8217;s gentle &#8220;Dr. Milford&#8221;, notoriously sent to the island for conducting a mercy killing; it&#8217;s too bad his semi-interesting character is quickly forgotten in favor of endless scenes of bloody violence. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Selleck.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Selleck-1024x559.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"349\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-68949\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Selleck-1024x559.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Selleck-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Selleck-128x70.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Selleck-768x419.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Selleck-1536x838.png 1536w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Selleck-495x270.png 495w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Terminal-Island-Selleck.png 1827w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Analogies to <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lord_of_the_flies\"><em>Lord of the Flies<\/em><\/a> are inevitable, but despite Peary&#8217;s claim that it remains &#8220;interesting&#8230; because of [its] feminist-humanist themes&#8221; (and the fact that &#8220;the women and men renegades&#8230; shar[e] in the action, the danger, the plotting of war strategy&#8221;), its disappointing screenplay &#8212; which &#8220;deals with a civil war for supremacy of the island&#8221; &#8212; comes nowhere close to effectively exploring this inherently provocative premise.
