I love this movie!! I can't tell you but there is something about it that has made me watch it at least 20 times or more!!
In this passionate modern day retelling of the classic novel, Emmaline Robinson and Dean McMullen are on two opposing sides of their high school world. But when they are caught in a storm at sea during a Caribbean field trip and stranded on a tropical island, these two teenagers will have to come together in ways they never imagined. Without parents, without cell phones and without help, they will learn how to survive on their own or face the ultimate consequences. As they explore and learn about each other, they also learn about themselves while falling in love, while waiting for rescue on the island.
Emma Robinson and Dean McMullen are complete opposite. Dean is a bit of a loner and use a knife quite a lot of the time which gets him into trouble and Emma is organised and doesn't take any risks in life but when they stranded on an island, not only she learn a new side to Dean but she learns that there is so much out there in the world and what she can achieve if just took things as they came like a wild cat!
I like the fact in this movie that they had the guy from The Blue Lagoon (1980 Version) play the teacher to Dean and Emma - linking the old with the new!
I also like the fact it is based in modern life because it is quite funny that when they get stranded that they think there is going to be a hotel in tropical island! There is quite a bit of humour in the movie.
I have just realised why I enjoyed the movie so much is because Brendon Thwaites spent half of movie shirtless! Hmm...yummy!
