Title: so far from the original storyline
Review: i was tutoring a high school freshman this past summer in reading "lord of the flies." i wanted to find a video that would be a good visual to enhance his comprehension. after viewing this 1990 version, i almost returned it. this movie is so far off the actual plot. the kids are shown to be caring for a wounded adult at the beginning of the movie; there are NO adults on the island in the book. so the plot is a bit distorted for this version. plus there is alot of unnecessary bad language used throughout the movie. i ended up keeping it for myself, and ordered my student the 1960 version, which is 99% accurate and a much better depiction of what the book entails.
Is the review positive or negative?
