Source Writer Daniel Defoe
After killing a man in a duel, Robinson Crusoe (Pierce Brosnan) is forced to flee his homeland on a trade ship headed around the world. A fierce storm maroons him on a tropical island, the sole survivor. Believing he is all alone, he begins to build a life for himself, but he soon discovers that a local tribe uses his island for human sacrifice! When Crusoe helps to free a tribesman about to be sacrificed, he and the tribesman must flee.

Pierce Brosnan stars as the title character in this made for television movie based on Daniel Defoe's classic novel. The film begins as Robinson is fleeing his native England after he killed a man in a duel. Boarding a ship slated to travel around the world, Crusoe braces himself for all the hardship and adventure such a voyage entail. Unfortunately, during the voyage, the ship sinks during a fierce storm, leaving Crusoe as the only survivor on a deserted tropical island. Utterly alone, Crusoe builds a life for himself until a tribe from a nearby settlement begin using the island as a place to practice ritual human sacrifice.

This is the only Williiam Takaku video.

3 stars an average movie by an average actor
as a teacher, i found this version of defoe's classic a bit frustrating. it follows the book fairly well, except for a bizarre love interest and a ludicrous time frame (4 years vs. the original's 28!). pierce brosnan is passable, if a bit overwrought, as crusoe. this is a decent movie told well and could provide a useful introduction to a great work of fiction.

Robinson Crusoe

Dynamic screen star Pierce Brosnan (THE TAILOR OF PANAMA, THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH) braves the perils of an untamed land in this classic story of sweeping action and high adventure! As the sole survivor of a disastrous high-seas shipwreck, Robinson Crusoe (Brosnan) is forced to build a solitary life on a deserted tropical island. But he eventually discovers that even this existence is threatened by a local tribe, which uses his island for barbaric sacrificial rituals! Soon, Crusoe will risk his own life to save a doomed tribesman from certain death! In a thrilling adaptation of the timeless novel by Daniel Defoe, both men -- each stranded and unable to return home -- must cross an immense cultural divide to forge a friendship and survive against impossible odds!

An adaptation of the legendary biblical tale, director Bruce Beresford's film stars Richard Gere as King David, favorite of the God of Israel.

Shelby Lynne Identity Crisis CD  (2003)

Robinson Crusoe movie DVD
CD $11.69  4.5 stars Audio Samples
An IDENTITY CRISIS for Shelby Lynne is no big surprise, considering that she began her career as the jazziest singer in Nashville, with predictably uncommercial results. Her previous two albums found Lynne making her bid for Sheryl Crow/Shawn Colvin-style pop stardom with big production and pop-rock aesthetics. This time around, she's producing herself, and the arrangements tend toward the opposite extreme; a bare-bones format with the rhythm section working around Lynne's voice and her (mostly acoustic) guitar. Whether Lynne is reclaiming her own identity or simply working with a smaller budget in the wake of disappointing sales figures, the change is a welcome one. The songs feel earthier, rootsier, and much closer to Lynne's heart, allowing her impressive voice to wring out all the inherent ...

Sent to eliminate a gun-running camp in Central America, United States Major Dutch Schaeffer (Arnold Schwarzenegger) and his commandos get more than they bargained for when they cross paths with a mysterious assassin. As members of their unit begin to disappear, Dutch, Dillon (Carl Weathers), and Blain (Jesse Ventura) conclude that whatever is hunting them is not of this earth. Every attempt at a tactical defense is a defeated for Dutch and company and it is only in the last stretch of their race to safety that their suspicions are confirmed and they encounter the alien nimrod face to face. A summer box office smash, 1987's PREDATOR re-ignited an old trend of movies depicting aliens invading earth that began decades earlier with films like ...

WISHMASTER: After inadvertently freeing an evil Djinn from his gemstone prison, an auction house gemologist fights to bring his rampages to an end, as they include stealing the souls of the hapless humans whose wishes bring them to ironic early ends. Heavy on the computer-assisted effects, with some mitigating touches, such as Ted Raimi in a cameo and Englund as a stodgy art collector. Craven acted as Executive Producer, but later removed his name. WISHMASTER 2: Evil has been summoned once again when the evil ...
