Konterr Brilliant and touching

ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

coolguysadiq If u want to watch a good movie on your weekend this is a great choice.. u won't regret it.. and also this movie has an awesome soundtrack... Which I've been listening to on repeat.. and the overall movie is just simple and great.. I'd have regretted it if I hadn't seen this movie after checking the disappointing and poor rating for this movie on IMDb.. but thank God I did watch it ;)

jonathanruano The remake or re-"awakening" of the Blue Lagoon is basically based on a gimmick: waiting for Indiana Evans (playing Emma) and Breton Thwaites (playing Dean) to take their clothes off and have sex on a tropical island. The movie begins plausibly with Indiana getting knocked off a yacht into the water, with Breton coming to her rescue with a lifeboat. Then the couple drift towards a desert island complete with palm trees and travel log beaches. After that, the plausibility ends. For starters, the only way the search party armed with helicopters could not find the couple is if they are incredibly bad at their jobs. After all, if the couple drifted to a tropical paradise by boat, then surely it is not too hard to find the desert island. Yet the search party fails completely in its mission and announces over the airwaves that its search mission has become a recovery mission, which has the effect of making Denise Richards cry. Meanwhile, other implausible things happen on the island. The couple is apparently subject to wild mood swings, since they are happy at one point and then become completely manic the next without any explanation being given. Yet despite all of the implausible plot lines, I did not resent the movie as much as I thought I would. What I saw were two appealing actors, Indiana Evans and Breton Thwaites, trapped in a bad movie. Furthermore, they were more mature and considerate of each other during the love scenes than their predecessors, Christopher Atkins and Brooke Shields. With a more intelligent script, I could see Evans and Thwaites delivering performances worthy of critical acclaim because they each have at least one good movie within each of them. Unfortunately, the "Blue Lagoon: The Awakening" is not that film. This movie falls apart at the screenplay stage, because it is all about the sex scenes (which are too brief) and it does not give the characters anything interesting to say or do. 4.5/10

Kirpianuscus in the role of dr. Christiansen. this is one of the pillars of the film. then, the bodies of two Australian teenagers losted out of civilisation, different one by other, becoming parts of a seductive love story. and, sure, the end. risky but useful for save a teenager story who could be a large collection of clichés and stereotypes. so, a nice film. easy to criticize, not bad for the mixture of classic themes. and for the tricks. because it has the nice idea to conquest different categories of public. the nostalgic of The Blue Lagoon from 1980 for the presence in the cast of Christopher Atkins. the admirers of the sequel from 1991 for the beautiful new level of story. but the target remains the Facebook generation. and this is the motif to not ignore a film who reflects the spirit of a circle of young people who defines his identity step by step.

rugbydude123 There are quite a few things wrong with this film, yet a few redeeming features too. Firstly, the script is awful. The cheesy one liners are woeful, and some of the ways the parents react are painful, although that is as much the acting than the script. So, the acting. The main leads, Thwaites and Evans, do as much as they can with a limited script, and looking beyond the American accents, bearing in mind they are both Australian, they don't do a bad job. They do actually create very intimate love scenes and keep the film going, and by the end of the movie, you do actually feel sad as Evans plays hard to get after all the attention they are getting. Also, they have obviously been picked for their looks, and not necessarily for their acting skills, and so much of it is filmed with minimal clothes on, which i must admit isn't a bad thing for the guys out there, and I'm sure the girls wont complain too. Overall, a rubbish script but with a nice deeper story and an intimate love story create by decent actors.
