Blue Lagoon: The Awakening (2012 TV Movie)
7/10
Way Too Tame for a Blue Lagoon Movie
16 June 2012
Warning: Spoilers
No nude scenes like in the 1980 semi-classic. An audience expects a lot more skin in a Blue Lagoon movie. Too bad. The male and female leads were both quite photogenic and sexy. They could do nude scenes without any need for body doubles. The premise of the existence of a reasonably large and well-watered but completely uninhabited island next door to Trinidad is preposterous. Sure there are flat muddy alluvial islands in the delta of the Orinoco where nobody lives, but these glorified mudflats and sandbars are not volcanic islands like the one they were on. Spoiler: Clueless parents don't realize how much the young lovers have bonded while in exile. They don't even ask if the horny teenagers had engaged in sex during their more than three months on the island.
