Watch Blue Lagoon: The Awakening For Free

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Great love story. Brenton and Indiana were terrific and so believable. I then was introduced to Brenton's other movies. What a jewel he is. The movie had the right amount of everything. Very straight girl meets fun loving Dean. His father had said do something for someone else. He truly did spending time in reassuring Emma that they would figure it out there on the island and be fine. I've seen it now several times and put it on my Facebook. I did want the ending to be better for Dean, explaining what all he had done on the island, so being a writer, I rewrote my own ending.

I don't like a lot of island movies but this one was really good I really loved the part where they started like each other more and the scenery really good I just hope they make a second with the same actors. I think that they could have stayed a little longer and gone into if she really was pregnant some movies they don't go in depth. But this is a great movie if you watch it people say that it is bad but I love it I never watched the other ones but this one I repeat was amazing you won't be sorry. So if you think this movie is good please say so these actors need praise instead of not having any good reviews just bad ones.

Okay, I am a little bit embarrassed to be reviewing this film, but I read some other reviews, and I wanted to point out some elements I noticed.I caught this movie by accident one morning when I happened to have a day off. I was just flipping channels when it came on. When I saw what it was, I decided to leave it on while I did other things.What surprised me about the film was the arc for Indiana Evans' character, Emma. While much of the movie was silly, the dialog between the two leads seemed honest in the context of the story and the characters. They actually talked to and got to know one another. Also, unusual for a Lifetime movie, Emma actually takes joy and pleasure in her own sexuality. That the character (not the actor) is a teenager makes for a slightly subversive moment in an otherwise formulaic film.Emma is also the one who misunderstands Dean when they return home, which is nice, as often men are portrayed as misinterpreting signals, and instead Emma misunderstands Dean. Emma and her sister also have a great moment that passes the Bechtel test, in that they do not talk about the men in their lives, but each other. The movie has problems, but the acting is not one of them. I think the two leads are quite good with the material, and they make their characters work despite some obvious holes in the plot. The movie's island scenes were also beautifully filmed. The eponymous lagoon is particularly lovely.Not a spectacular film, but it had a few surprises.

In spite of the spoiler that I read, I really enjoyed the movie up until the ending starting at after they are rescued and Dean shows up at her window the first night. I don't understand after the relationship that developed on the island how she could shut him out of her life so quickly. How is the viewer to understand the scenes with Emma gazing at Dean after the party? I guess one explanation is that immediately upon returning home and viewing facebook, she feels shes is back to her previous life, but as the movies progresses, she realizes that she really has changed. So she calls Dean. And he won't answer. Really? Feeling as he does about her, he ignores her? And she makes one attempt. She doesn't try again, try to see him, or text him. Doesn't make sense. The scene at the end of the movie makes me feel like there are deleted scenes. At the dance when Emma is with her best friend, the friend makes a comment that she knew Emma had it in her. It implies to me that there was a previous scene where Emma confides in her about her relationship with Dean on the island. And Dean showing up at the dance without knowing that Emma is alone suggests Emma's friend advise him that she wasn't going to the dance with the quarterback and if he wants her come and get her. It's just me, but the addition of those two scenes would have made the ending some much more pleasing for me. I would love to see the movie release as a DVD with any deleted scenes included and maybe something that would relieve the viewer of guessing to make things make sense. By the way, I would have been very disappointed in Indiana Evens if there were any nude scenes, even just topless. And I once had sex with a virgin and did not know she was a virgin.
