Fire Island (2019) User Reviews

Worst script - Worst acting

[andrewmartinpicadilly · 1/10 · 11 August 2019]

The lead actress, Carly Brooke, is very pretty and has a lovely voice, but Fire Island is proof that even a pretty face is not enough to save a dismal script and weak acting. Nobody ever seems to get angry, nobody seems to fall passionately in love and nobody seems to grieve. If fake was what the producer was going for, this movie nailed it!

It seems that somebody forgot to teach the plot writers that every good tale needs some sort of conflict to stay interesting.

With regards to the acting, maybe it is impossible to act around such poorly written lines, but it would have been nice to see at least one character give it a shot!

A movie should be compelling, but not in a, "I feel compelled to warn others not to waste their time," kind of way!

Terrible Movie

[VintageSoul56 · 1/10 · 22 June 2021]

I watched this from my library Hoopla account. I wasted one of my 10 monthly checkouts borrowing this movie. The only good thing that I can say is the Carly Brooke does have a good singing voice. The rest: the script, acting, her daisy dukes are awful. I know that it's a very low budget indie, but I've seen some that are really good. I did fast forward a lot. Reading the end credits, I noticed that the woman who wrote, produced and directed has the same names as the main female character and her 3 last names are also included as the names of characters in the movies. Also, the thanks went to the 2 men who were/are her husbands because those were their names in the movie. After that, I figured it was based on her life. I hope that she and the cast of real life characters acted better than this lot did. She directed it, so maybe not. Stay away from this one.
