MOVIE REVIEWS

We watched this because we had just seen a crappy movie with Billy Zane in it. _Survival Island_ was the worse of the two. _Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible._

Billy Zane - what on Earth are you doing here? He is "Jack" the pretty odious husband of "Jennifer" (Kelly Brook) who goes on a fishing trip with some friends. The boat catches fire, and only the two with handsome crew member "Manuel" (Juan Pablo di Pace) survive to set up camp on a beautiful desert island. After a while, "Jennifer" starts to fall for the handsome young fellow - far more adept at building things and catching food and soon the threesome are split into two. When "Jack" manages to salvage a lifeboat and makes plans to set off without them - things start to get a bit tetchy - and lively. It's really poor, this film - a sort of third rate "Blue Lagoon" with spears, some terrible acting, worse dialogue and were it not for the lovely scenery around their paradise then this would have nothing at all going for it. It claims to be a psychological thriller - well that bit was simply wasted on me - this is just not very good...
