- Review: "It would have been all the more effective if "Lord of the Flies" were set on those urban islands where children even now are killing other children." Rita Kempley, Washington Post; March 16, 1990
- Review: "The symbolism is right up front and unmissable, and the story part – the events that in theory should cause our throats to tighten and our pulses to quicken – is pretty lame." Roger Ebert. March 16, 1990
- A perfect example of how to update a story for its time: "As a movie, it obviously has to tighten things up here and there, and even drop the odd plot point to fit into its economical 90 minutes, and the character of Ralph suffers the most from that." Pete Laurie
