Cash-in...

Cash-in on the smash hit original involving a new pair of teenagers finding themselves trapped on an island. I don't remember much about this film, other than the fact that Milla Jovovich tries her best to form an early career, and that it's an exact repeat--in all literal sense--of the superior original.

Don't waste your time. Please.
