I can't believe someone can say this is a great movie! What makes it great? Beautiful scenes of paradise island? If you like such scenes, than don't watch movies, find some screen savers with those motives instead. There are a plenty of them. I feel insulted by the authors. I don't know who wrote a bad story, the book writer or the movie writer, and I don't care. Numerous stupidities insults my intelligence. For example, under-teen kids don't know anything about pregnancy, but are very skilled in building a cabin, and what a cabin! Like a 3-star hotel bungalow, with several levels, floors, balconies... (I am 35, I wouldn't be able to make such an object within my whole life). The parody in "Top secret" movie was very clear. Than, I can accept that 8 years old kids hadn't seen pregnant woman ever before and that they know nothing about pregnancy, but I CAN'T accept the same kids perfectly know how to cut the umbilical cord of a newborn child. At the same time, they'd never heard of or seen mothers suckle their babies! Ridiculous! Than, it is also pretty impossible to share such a small island with savages and never to be seen by them for several years. These few examples are enough for me to consider this movie a peace of crap. I gave 2/10 only for some really nice scenes of nature and two young beautiful people. And yes, I'm not sure whether the parrots have been credited, but they should have been!
