How sad is this?
Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
ISLE OF DESTINY is a B-movie type thriller about an aviatrix, played with relish by June Lang, who gets entangled in the schemes of a criminal boss and who ends up crash-landing her plane on a Pacific island as a result. This movie has quite a deal of incident but much of it is low rent, with a sluggish pace instead of excitement and a general paint-by-numbers feel.The cast is a good one and the actors certainly put in the right effort. However, this movie doesn't really know what it wants to be. It celebrates female independence and spirit on the one hand but then dates things with the jungle girl character attacking people with a blow dart, who feels like she belongs in a Tarzan flick. Otherwise it's a distinctly average movie.
