The Island was a commercial Hollywood ripoff of Kazuo Ishiguro's great novel Never Let Me Go. Ishiguro's book had a deeper meaning that was completely absent from that movie. I won't spoil the "fun."

There are some truly evil people who claim to want to help; the cinch is that they may believe their evil is 'help', it is as CS LLewis said:

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
