Introduction

Set in a dystopian future, the movie checks out topical styles such as cloning, human rights, and individuality. The title describes a supposedly utopian island, the only unpolluted place left on the planet after a reported contamination led to the death of most of the world's population.

Plot Overview
The motion picture begins in a highly structured and sanitized facility, where inhabitants live their lives under rigorous rules and oversight. The center's citizens have actually been informed they are survivors of a devastating contamination and the "island" is their only hope for a natural life.

The lead characters, Lincoln Six Echo (Ewan McGregor) and Jordan Two Delta (Scarlett Johansson), begin to question the nature of their presence and the fact about the island. The moment of revelation comes when Lincoln finds a moth in an air vent, a discovery that leads him to explore the center, where he stumbles upon the shocking fact - they are mere clones of 'sponsor' people living in the outside world, produced to offer organs, surrogate pregnancy services or replacements in case of accidents.

The Escape and Chase
Understanding the horrifying reality, Lincoln persuades Jordan to leave from the complex. An unrelenting chase takes place as Merrick, the head of the center played by Sean Bean, employs a team to bring them back. The film involves non-stop action series as the protagonists steer through unfamiliar terrains and circumstances in the real world as they try to outrun their pursuers.

Revelations and Resolution

The clones satisfy their originals, a confrontation that causes unforeseen sequences and eventually results in the death of the original Tom Lincoln.

Last Showdown and Conclusion
Lincoln and Jordan handle to return to the center, where they expose the truth to their fellow inhabitants. This activates an uprising and mass escape. In an action-packed last showdown, Lincoln challenges Merrick and handles to eliminate him, effectively interrupting the cloning operation.
