[edit] Another similar film

I might be mistaken but wasn't there another movie that had the exact same plot of Jungle 2 Jungle but was made with a different case and director? Chooserr (comment really by 69.237.40.99 (talk contribs))

That would be Un indien dans la ville, which was mentioned in the article six months before you wrote your comment. — JIP | Talk 13:29, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
There was also an american movie called "Little Indian, Big City" The same year. It was much less known.

[edit] Charges of Racism

I moved this section from the article to here for discussion:

== Charges of Racism ==
Many Pacific Islander lobbying groups pushed for the film to be banned in the United States and Europe on charges that the film presented an "unfair portrait" the small US minority group. The film ends with an Islander completeing the famous island feces pyramid. All fine and well, but the actor who played this islander was caucasian, in blackface.

This comment starts out fine, but then starts talking about a "feces" pyramid? I've seen this film several times and don't recall any such event in the film (the film actually end with Michael Cromwell arriving at Mimi-Siku's island with Richard Kempster and his family, apparently for a vacation/visit). I've placed it here until such an outlandish claim can be verified with a source. — Frecklefoot | Talk 14:52, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
