Teddy B @RT90521672 4 days ago Not particularly sexy, shocking or entertaining. There is no particular point to most of the sequences comprising this obscene runtime besides romance---and in that aspect what we're offered is flacid, mannered and workmanlike, with anti-chemistry and a queasy focus on these kids' sheer naivety towards each other and themselves, which is supremely stupid to watch play out so repetitively.

If I was the one on that island I would've gone out like Button than to ever exist in that kind of movie world. If I had a choice to watch Shark Tale or this movie for the rest of eternity I'd always and happily watch Shark Tale than this kind of insult to even think of this as a movie.

See more Kimberly L. @RT04359972 Jun 1, 2026 From a filmmakers point of view you can see how impactful the simple script is. The story line is complete with subtle cues that our modern world usually taught us and there small young minds had to grow up essentially with the knowledge of an 11 year old. Its a simple yet impactful masterpiece. See more Animal K @AnimalKing Apr 26, 2026 Basically 80s equivalent of "Cuties" This film is pretentious trash, yet some call it a masterpiece. It presents a "love story" mirroring a twisted Adam and Eve retelling, where characters enter the "real world" only after consuming forbidden fruit. It feels like a fetish story involving cousins trapped on an island who don't understand the consequences of sex. The film disturbingly treats attempted non-consensual encounters as acceptable. Furthermore, the unnecessary, racist depiction of natives adds nothing to the plot, as they never even interact with the leads. Challenging societal norms in unrealistic scenarios doesn't make this "art"; the metaphors are shallow and lack payoff. Its theatrical success likely stemmed from a pre-internet era when viewers couldn't easily access such fantasies elsewhere. See more Read all reviews
