Monster Island Ratings & Reviews
Decider
John Serba
Monster Island is good. Well, at least good enough for the niche it inhabits.
Giant Freakin Robot
Drew Dietsch
Monster Island might get accused of being bare bones by other critics, but I prefer to see it as a "meat and potatoes"
Movie Madness Podcast
Erik Childress
A cross between Hell in the Pacific and Creature from the Black Lagoon should not be this boring.
Digital Mafia Talkies
Srijoni Rudra
Since the plot was predictable, the narrative needed some element of surprise or shock, and the lack of it makes Monster Island a forgettable watch.

Wiluan seems to understand that monsters work best when they challenge us to recognize our own mortality and confront our hubris.

Despite some solid low-budget make-up work and decent central performances, "Monster Island" doesn't have enough meat on its bones, somehow feeling narratively inert even at just 83 minutes.

Cheryl Eddy
At just over 80 minutes, Monster Island offers a fast-paced race to the end. You almost wish there wasn't a coda that contains flashbacks to scenes we just saw, but it also gives a conclusion that's both satisfying and leaves the potential for more.

The plot and characters of Monster Island are nothing more than excuses for the monster to do its thing. We know that, but the movie doesn't need to be so transparent about it.

Lo-fi monster mash earns points for originality, not unearned ambition.

I confess, I found 'Monster Island' fun. Is this movie going to shift my perspective on anything? No. But it's a good time at the flicks and the creepy creature design is convincingly bipedal, gilled and scaly.
Daily Dead
Matt Donato
Aside from some noteworthy special effects, like the Gill-man's second cousin twice removed, Monster Island is a restrained take on what's promised via the ominous title.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
The endeavor certainly strains to reach its already short run time, but there's a modest amount of entertainment value in the offering, especially for those who enjoy creature features.
Heaven of Horror
Karina Adelgaard
Maybe I've just watched too many reality wilderness survival shows because I kept thinking: Forget about the creature, you'll die of dehydration before it ever catches you!
Paste Magazine
Jim Vorel
Thanks to some excellent FX work and steady performances from its two leads, the film is free to deliver on the monster gore front in a way that is particularly easy for fans of practical FX to admire.
