Just dull - Grand Isle review by TH
Nicholas Cage and Kelsey Grammar are both decent actors. Sadly in this film they put in a routine performance and it shows. The script is bad and nothing about this film grips or entertains. Very low budget film that I wouldn't waste your time with.

Unwatchable Shite !!! - Grand Isle review by DaMikki
The title says it all, a pointless crappy story that was offensive and unpleasant to watch. The worst film I have seen Nicolas cage in, in a very long time. Why is he even starting in crap like this ?

Simply Awful - Grand Isle review by GI
Here's another Nicolas Cage film that deserves to be forgotten immediately. It's not helped by a slack script that drifts all over the place with a story as daft as a brush. Here Cage is an ex marine and Vietnam War veteran who hires a young handyman, Buddy (Luke Benward) to mend his fence (we get to see how the fence became broken, a scene which shows Cage's character to be one of his usual manic/deranged ones). Buddy, all muscles, youth and wavy hair, is instantly the sexual target of the femme fatale, Fancy (KaDee Strickland), the sultry wife. Cage gets more crazy, then a hurricane begins forcing Buddy to spend the night. This leads to a bizarre chain of events that all makes little sense but Cage gets to do those famous high kicks he loves so much. Kelsey Grammar plays a local detective and nothing happens that isn't a total disappointment at every turn. A poor film, don't bother.
