Freaktana A Major Disappointment

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

morganstephens512 The film looks nice, but that is about all I can say that is good for this. I can't handle how bad the dialogue was and the terrible love story that was thrown in there with the younger kids, as it was just so hard to believe in on every level. But the acting was overall decent for the adults, but not so much for the kids.

IslandMur I must admit, this was not a good movie and I'm not hard to please when it comes to movies of this genre. It's a kids movie so I go in knowing that. However the writing lacks any kind of cohesion, the plot even for a kids adventure movie is full of holes. The original had great chemistry between the cast members, here there is no chemistry between any members of the cast. The acting is bad, the only ones I think acted decently and Seymour and the little girl, every one else seems to be delivering lines. The girl playing Francoise was simply beyond ridiculous in the beginning. My suggestion is to stick to the original or the TV series they are older yes but far superior to this movie.

Catharina_Sweden This was a very stupid and bad movie. First of all, the whole pirate thing was unnecessary. It should have been enough excitement to show how the family struggle to survive in/against nature. Finding food and water, building a shelter, finding protection against wild animals and insects, making fire, manufacturing all things they will need such as weapons, pots, garments, taking care of illnesses and accidents without drugs or doctors, planning how to get into contact with the outside world (making a beacon and keeping it alive, building a raft, etc.). All this bit was made out to seem much too easy, compared to a survival situation in reality. The family members seem too unaffected and carefree most of the time. It is not psychologically correct at all. And the acting is very bad overall. It becomes very obvious why Jane Seymour never became a great character actress, despite of her great beauty.

Petri Pelkonen The family Robinson is shipwrecked on a desert island.The New Swiss Family Robinson (1998) is directed by Stewart Raffill.It's based on the 1812 novel by Johann David Wyss.The real life couple, Jane Seymour and James Keach play Anna and Jack Robinson.The kids, Shane, Todd and Elizabeth are played by John Mallory Asher, Blake Bashoff and Jamie Renée Smith.The villain, Sheldon Blake, is played by the late David Carradine.Yumi Iwama plays Francoise.I think this movie is better than most people give credit for.First of all, it's rather exciting to watch this family trying to cope on a desert island.They have to build a house there, then they face all kinds of dangers, like bumping into a panther and a snake.And meeting with the pirates brings a little action into this movie.And there's also a romantic subplot between Shane and the French plane wreck survivor Francoise.I think the whole family can enjoy this ride.
