Stranded for three months on a tropical island in the Caribbean after falling into the water during a boating party in Trinidad, disparate high school students - overachiever Emmaline "Emma" Robinson (Indiana Evans) and lone slacker Dean McMullen (Brenton Thwaites) - must rely on each other for survival. Meanwhile, their parents keep searching for them, even after the authorities have cancelled their extensive search.

Blue Lagoon: The Awakening is a made-for-television film loosely based on The Blue Lagoon (1908), a novel by Irish author Henry De Vere Stacpoole. The screenplay was written by Matt Heller and Heather Rutman. There are three previous movie versions of The Blue Lagoon based on Stacpoole's novel: The Blue Lagoon (1923), The Blue Lagoon (1949) and The Blue Lagoon (1980).

No clue. Dean suggests that the skeleton could belong to a local fisherman or a drug smuggler. One viewer came up with the following suggestion: 'I think the skeleton was an animal smuggler who died from a diseased monkey bite. The monkey and the panther are the only survivors left from his cargo.' Could be.

Probably not. Dean says that her nausea and vomiting was most likely due to the fish she ate, fish that "smelled weird". At any rate, as one viewer points out, as soon as the teens were rescued, they would have had an ambulance waiting to check them out, to see if they were malnourished or dehydrated, and they would have soon discovered if Emma was pregnant. In Stacpoole's novel, Emma did indeed become pregnant, but that was after years of being on the island. In this film, Emma and Dean are only on the island for 100 days.

After their rescue by a passing helicopter, Emma is thrust back into her life as the popular girl, while Dean goes back as the social outcast. Things come to a head at the high school prom. Emma attends without a date, just her younger sister Stacey (Carrie Alexander) as her escort. Emma spots Dean, dressed in his father's tuxedo, standing outside in the rain. She joins him, and Dean slips a corsage on her wrist. "Wanna dance, Prom Queen?", he asks. Emma points out that "It's kinda pouring." "We've been through worse," Dean replies. In the final scene, they kiss and dance together in the rain.
