Atom User Reviews for Fantasy Island
A very refreshing take on the TV series from 1978 by the same name. This movie serves as a back story to the set up for the TV shows main characters.
It's not the old Fantasy Island where everyone makes it out alive. 😳
Don't. Trust me. Don't.
Definitely worth the watch!
Michael pena was great in this movie. could of been alot better. some of the other actors didnt do such a great job. it was ok . bullying, gay ,unnecessary for this kind of movie . could of been a great movie
So good, kept me on my toes and the ending was so unexpected!
Horrible
Not the usual “Blumhouse” movie but definitely one of my favorites!! Love the ending
Way too long and too much going on. It was fun for a while, but the script was borderline nonsensical and got bogged down in too many characters and twists.
Worst movie ever. A huge waste of time. I laughed throughout the entire movie.
This movie taught me something DONT life in fear or regret LIVE LIFE
I kind of felt solved it when The Totoro was chasing the girls but not try kill one so I had doubts at that time she was involved in some way
Blumhouse tends to make better than this
Trash
Has twist but horrible acting
Surprisingly good!
If you grew up watching the show Fantasy Island, you’re going to feel compelled to see this movie, lol, that why I went to see it. The ending has a “ Oh ok “ moment. Should have just been a Netflix or Amazon Movie 🍿
So ...so. Went in not expecting much. Story line got confusing much of the time. Not the Fantasy Island I remember.
Dumb
This felt like a remake of a basic plot in a another movie.

Was expecting more from this movie! But I guess not all fantasy are good to fulfill!!
Movie was a decent watch . The big flaws I had with the movie were not a single likable character except for one , the drama in it kind of was unnecessary, was very confusing .
This movie was terrible. We had such high hopes for it but it falls so flat on its face. And if you’re familiar with the TV show, well it’s nothing like it but it never claimed to be. The twist in it is actually pretty good but it can’t save the fact you wasted an hour and…
I wish I could have a refund! Worst movie ever
come have been better..poor storyline
It was dragged on too long and there were too many”plot twists” to the point where the main one wasn’t even a surprise anymore... should’ve stayed home
No.
OK for a "bad" horror movie...sort of...
Just a movie , wasn’t bad or great, only good because of Michael Pena
I really enjoyed the plot of the movie, but for as much as they build it up the ending was a let down.
Worst movie known to man.
It wasn’t what I expected. The movie had a lot going on. The story was diverted with the underline plot of mystery which led to an anti climatic moment. The reasoning and solution clashed with cheesiness. A total cliche
It had a very nice unforgettable twist
Wasn't what I expected, not too bad good date night movie!
If your a fan of the original series, this movie makes more sense. I for one liked it as did my wife..
One of the worse movies I’ve seen in my life.
I remember the original tv series and was curious about this movie. After watching this it is okay. Unfortunately the movie doesn’t stick the landing. The third act almost completely undoes the narrative leading up to it. Maybe next time.
Movie was really good. Don’t know why it has such a low rating. The movie was very creative. Really enjoyed the plot must focus in order to understand it. Love the cast!
Felt very random. There were good moments and surprises here there but over all, just thrown together. I’d see it again in some down time or after a drunk night with friends for fun. LoL
A fresh spin on horror compared to recent runs. Descent movie and cast plus beach vibes!
Could’ve been better. Was only good towards the last like 15-20 minutes of the movie
Worst movie I’ve ever seen.
Could have been more scary or more surprising
We liked it!! Will definitely see the sequel too
I actually liked about 2 thirds of it and it does help if you liked the television series that it was based on or at least it will help you to catch some of the inside jokes.
Is okay different a bit more funny not scary at all. But it did entertain.
Not as scary I would of hoped , Kinda confusing with the different paths but when it was a dope plot twist.
👎
Should have skipped this one!
Metacritic
A wooden ensemble, paper-thin frights and dull TV-special looks don’t help matters. ‘This place doesn’t suck,’ someone observes early on. If only.
Unlikely to win over those who remember the lush vistas and Montalban-powered original, nor appeal much to teens looking for a horror-filled night at the movies, Fantasy Island is distinctly sub-par filmmaking full of clichés and lacking in real entertainment value. No one would call this their ultimate fantasy.
It’s a laughably bad, generic, and bloodless PG-13 waste of two hours, and that’s everything I fantasized it wouldn’t end up being.
