I am contemplating buying the UK release of The Island which is region free but I need to know if it will play in my North American PS3. Thanks.

I have played it once in my brothers slim ps3 with no problems. It is region free so as long as you have a blu Ray player it will play. No matter what type it is.

Thanks, I just ordered a copy off of Ebay. This is an awesome movie, can't wait to see it on BD!

Oddly a movie I've never seen. As mentioned this will play anywhere in the world.

Yes it will. I bought it over a year ago.

I think it doesn't have lossless sound(going by memory)... too bad... PQ is awesome.

One of the few Michael Bay movies that are decent. Its a shame about the lack of extras however.

Blu-Benny · 02-08-2011, 02:15 PM

yes it does, i bought this on ebay brand new for $15!!

Dreamworks have it for the USA I think so maybe there's a problem.

Warner most other places.
