Critic Reviews

  • John Hartl, Seattle Times

    The travelogue-style photography is soothing, the bodies are pretty and the music isn't offensive, but feature-length movies can't survive on the ingredients for a standard airline commercial.

  • Jay Boyar, Orlando Sentinel

    Things are pretty much the same for the semi-nude kids in this movie as they were for the semi-nude kids in the first Blue Lagoon.

  • Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer

    Return to the Blue Lagoon is neither campy enough to be howlingly funny nor prurient enough to be provocative.

  • Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times

    Jovovich is a beauty recalling the very young Myrna Loy, Krause is boyishly handsome; both are capable and should survive this particular shipwreck.

  • Mark Caro, Chicago Tribune

    When an old scallawag spies on Lilli bathing naked in a waterfall, we civilized viewers are primed to condemn him. But we're all scallawags here.

    This was really quite atrocious. It seemed to start off okay for a bad follow on to a movie that was probably ill advised to start with. But the minute the kids grew up and became Milla Jovovich and Brian Krause, it was all over. (Admittedly Brian Krause is not that bad, and may… More

  • Dean M


    One of the least welcome sequels ever about the son of the original castaways gets cast away himself on yet another tropical island with a pretty girl and her mother.

  • Jason S


    Pretty much the same as the first one. A little better though.
