while there be a few amusing moment in this film and the odd mixture of character who find themselves awash on an island in the pacific really do not have much chemistry . they be mostly wrap up in their own ego and force to do some work or they will never see home again . there be a strange chinese man and loyal to his master and who be incredibly confuse . he have this goofy laugh that come at odd time . it grate on the brain . there be bad guy and windbag and loose woman and a nice woman . there be an islander who can not go to china because he be want for a murder there . he have the only boat and navigation skill to get the people off the island . everyone stay true to their color and it roll toward a predictable conclusion . i find gene lockart politician to be utterly insufferable . they should have drown him right away .
