Amazon.com: It took 11 years for the sequel to The Blue Lagoon to materialize. In the naturalistic, romanticized world conjured by the films, however, one begins where the other ended. Although Emmeline and Richard die at sea, their son is rescued by a passing ship and taken in by widowed mother Sarah (Lisa Pelikan). When the crew comes down with cholera, Sarah leaves the ship with daughter Lilli and Richard Jr. They wash up on a familiar island in the South Pacific--the "blue lagoon" of the earlier film. Sarah raises the urchins as best she can but succumbs to illness after a few years on the island. The story line then echoes that of the original film. The cute kids become attractive teenagers (model-turned-actress Milla Jovovich and Brian Krause) and friendship turns to wariness, eventually blossoming into love. That love is tested when they're--finally--granted the opportunity to return to civilization. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
A repeat... Dissapoingting at best. This movie tries to mimic the original The Blue Lagoon (Special Edition) movie and has virtually the same plot with some tweaks here and there (say civilization has come). The original movie was great, original and interesting. The second movie is a repeat and eh...ok. There is not much originality and the plot is boring and predictable. Castaway children with adult end up in a deserted island. Adult lives long enough to teach them the basics, adult dies, children are alone and grow up together, the fall in love and blah blah blah. See? Same movie.
This lagoon isn't too deep It took 11 years for a sequal to Blue Lagoon to come out. Why there would or could ever be a sequal, I don't really know. The first was more overtly sensual and raw than this one could have been, but, it is, after all, the same movie with different actors.
The son of Richard and Em, RIchard Jr., is rescued at sea when his parents (Christopher Atkins and Brooke Shields) were attempting to leave their island home and died drifting on their boat. The rescuing ship sinks, and a woman with Richard Jr. and her daughter, Lilly, will be marooned on an island in the South Pacific. The woman dies soon after of illness, and Richard and Lilly are left alone on the island, to relive just what Brooke and Chris did in the first movie.
I wonder why they felt they had to make a sequal to a movie like Blue Lagoon. Once the story was over, it was just over. How could the story continue and why did it have to? I would have liked to see Richard Jr. be taken back to civilization and lead a civilized life. THAT would be something. And Richard Jr. and Lilly look just like their predecesors, and have every experience they had. The only exception to this was the inclusion of the mother figure at the beginning on the island. Here it was established that they learned some social, language, and survival skills from her, making their long existence on the island alone a little more believable.
Even the scenery wasn't as beuatiful as the first one's, but it was still wonderful. Who wouldn't want a sandy beach for just a day or two to lounge about on? And with a handsome man at that. But it's just fluff.
Worst Case of Sequel Gone Bad, I've Ever Seen. I recently rented both of these movies at the same time. Big mistake. Obviously, the sequel was never meant to be seen in the company of the original. how can a serious screenplay writer ever even think to end the 1st movie one way, and re-write the 2nd move to completely discount that 1st ending?
Given the storyline and the writing of it, you can't blame the actors, but the writers. Brian Krause and the rest of the cast did a great job with what they had to work with; a badly written storyline with too much of the same thing as the original.
There was not enough difference in it to make it worth watching. huge disappointment.
A good way to pass an afternoon I really liked this movie. I found it suspenseful, and romantic. In fact this was my favorite of the two. Lilli & richard had a wedding ceremony, that i loved, and I think this movie showed more actual "love" than the first, Between brooke and chris, I think it was more about curiosity and hormones. not to say that i didnt like the first, but naysayers should at least give this movie a chance. you just may be surprised
not much of a storyline not much storyline but if you like milla alot like i do this show is a must.She is simply gorgeous in this movie.Also the location where this movie is filmed is the kind of island locale we'd all like to be shipwrecked(with milla of course).
