Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Just perfect...
A brilliant film that helped define a genre
Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
I generally like a lot of the TV reunion movies I've seen but the three Gilligan's Island ones are among the best. However this one stands out compared to the previous two. Rescue from Gilligan's Island and The Castaway's on Gilligan's Island don't do as good a job recapturing the fun of the original series and Judith Baldwin was an inferior Ginger. This movie has it all, from plenty of slapstick bumbling from Gilligan to a Ginger almost as good as Tina Louise. As you can guess from the title this movie features the Harlem Globetrotters. Their plane crashes while on the way to a game and they are forced to stay at the Castaways' resort until the outside world can be alerted. In one scene the gang challenges the globetrotters to a game and get clobbered as you would expect. Meanwhile evil J.J. Pierson tries to swindle the gang out of the island so he can use the supremium on the island to take over the world.
This movie is incredible! Amazing! It had everything! It is truly shocking that it was a made for TV production, it has epic blockbuster written all over it.Name it and this movie has it. The Harlem Globetrotters, greedy developers, Gilligan, Mary-Ann, The Professor, The Skipper, the millionaire and his wife, the rest, tourists, basketball in an exotic Caribbean location....... this movie has everything! EVERYTHING! ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING! You should be grateful, very grateful, that we get entertainment such as this. The world is good.
The Harlem Globtrotters crash land on Gilligan's Island. Compared to this, the original series seems almost intelligent.That said this is truly one of the worst things you could imagine seeing.This thing should be shown in prison to violent offenders serving life sentences. When they get finished watching this they will ask for the death penalty instead.If you have anything else to do, and I mean anything, do it besides watching this.Wow. If you were to teach a class on bad movies, this is the one to show.
This movie was one of the few that are better than the book. I have been a big fan of Gilligan ever since he blew their chances of getting off of the island. Nice to see Thruston Howell the 4th as well as the Globetrotters.
