THE BLUE LAGOON SET

THE BLUE LAGOON(1980):

This actually starts out really good! After the ship wreck, the
kids basically carry the movie til they "grow up", at that point
unfortunately, Brooke Shields and Christopher Atkins take over,
and the rest of the movie is really plodding! However, it really
does have a great story to tell and is beautifully done! The scenery
and music are pretty great! Oh well, still worth a watch for the kids! B

From IMDb.com:

It's funny how twenty-eight years can test the mettle of a
movie. With America in a furor over the fifteen year old
Miley Cyrus semi-nude photographs, we have all seemed
to have forgotten what ensued when a fourteen year old
Brook Shields seemed to bare all in this lost island flick
of 1980. Now that I have satellite television, I am watching
a lot of movies I have missed over the years. The Blue
Lagoon was one of them. I don't remember why I never
rented it, but I always wanted to watch it. I wasn't
disappointed last week. I sort of half-expected a "Lolita
meets Swiss Family Robinson" with giggles, but that wasn't
what I walked away with. Instead I experienced the same
sort of feelings of when I first read the book Flowers In
the Attic, where young children are imprisoned against
their will and grew up with very little adult supervision
or normal guidance. They (like the children in the movie)
were left to their own devices and budding intellect
to figure things out. In truth, Blue Lagoon was a lot
more like Robinson Crusoe in that they had very little
material things to make do with. Just the simple little
things left in a boat were all they had. The controversy
over using under-age females for art purposes will always
continue as they are very tender and beautiful and have
an innocent glow to them. - punkin_flats

This a far cry from the first movie, which was a far
cry from excellent!! Again, the only redeeming quality
here is the kids, who again are a far cry from the first
movie! Still worth a watch for the kids! (BTW, there
is some semi-nudity in this one!) C+

From IMDb.com:

I loved the original version, well, the 1980 original
version, and I found this to be basically a copy which
wanted to cash in on the success of the first. The
theme was basically the same, with unnecessary
violence added in. - anonymous
