Claudio C Blue Lagoon: The Awakening (2012) Silly Even for Teens (11,677 – 07 May 2025 – by Claudio Carvalho) In a high school in Miami, the director organizes a trip to Trinidad to help the locals. The popular Emmaline “Emma” Robinson (Indiana Evans) and the outcast Dean McMullen (Brenton Thwaites) are part of the group of students that travel. When there is a party in a yacht, Emma is convinced by her friends to go. When the police stop the yacht and go on board for inspection, Emma falls overboard, and Dean jumps in the water to help her. They embark in the dinghy rescue boat but there is a storm, and they sail adrift. They reach and are stranded in a desert island in Caribe. Now they have to survive alone. Meanwhile, Emma’s parents Barbara Robinson (Denise Richards) and Phil Robinson (Frank John Hughes) and Dean’s father Jack McMullen (Patrick St. Esprit) travel to Trinidad to look for their children. “Blue Lagoon: The Awakening” (2012) is an American movie silly even for teens. The original “The Blue Lagoon” (1980) is not a great movie, but the plot was original in the 80's with children. This remake with teenagers is very bad. It is funny to see the couple spend three months isolated on a Caribbean island eating coconuts, banana and fish only without any burning from the sun; with combed hair all the time; Dean without a beard; and without bags under the eyes. In addition, Emma is an obnoxious and spoiled teenager. The acting is poor and supported by the beauty of the lead couple only. Last but not the least, the conclusion is awful. My vote is four. Title (Brazil): “Lagoa Azul: O Despertar” (“Blue Lagoon: The Awakening” My Blog: https://maniacosporfilme.wordpress.com/ Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/07/25 Full Review Brooke J Why was the parents acting so bad that I thought none of them really cared about their children? Cry or something or anything. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/24/25 Full Review Rosana B Uma refilmagem atualizada, ao menos uma tentativa, perdeu muito da essencial ao alterar a idade dos náufragos, antes crianças, nesse, adolescentes, menos sexual que seus antecessores, e também menos sensual, relativamente cativante se conseguir evitar os comparativos (embora seja impossível) podemos desfrutar que um razoável filme adolescente, bobinho, alguma vergonha alheia, mas corajoso e bem-intencionado... Christopher Atkins, o protagonista de 1980 aparece no filme. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/13/24 Full Review smietnik o such good movie. tak. very romantic!! very comfort movie for me yes girl!! and i'm sorry for the cat Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/14/24 Full Review aubrey s Such a great movie!! Definitely recommend if you are into adventurous types of movies!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/07/24 Full Review Elen P More than pathetic. I didn't know existed until I've seen Brooke Shields interview and started to look into the old version to rewatching... And then, decided to see this "new" version. What a waist of time and money... Really, pitiful. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
