Reviews

" Comedic variation on the classic adventure substance of Daniel Defoe, in which the main character, unlike in the novel because of a bet comes to the island to prove that it is just as efficient as the real Robinson. Of course, the "hero" solves all difficulties and wins the bet; an incarnation and at the same time ironic myth of America. "
