Imagine being in a island alone for four long years,with no company,no shelter,surrounded by saline water all over.How would you feel?
Only Tom Hanks can make such good movies.I absolutely loved Forrest Gump,Apollo 13,and now this!I just watched it a few days ago and six years later and every part of the movie remains etched in my memory. The story is simple,it is about how Chuck Noland(Tom Hanks),a FedEx employee becomes a castaway in a island after a terrible plane crash in the ocean,is left to fend for himself. The rest is how he survives the island and finally comes out of it.
The locations are exotic and the story is wonderfully executed. As for the Special Effects,it's amazing.
The movie,like Forrest Gump,The Shawshank Redemption,Its A Wonderful Life speaks about hope,courage,survival and in short about the strange twist and turns of fate.Frame by Frame,the movie reminds you of Robinson Crusoe but, then you realize that even a common man can become a Crusoe,if he wants to get back to his world,his family,his love.
On the acting front,the movies,in its entirety belongs to Tom Hanks,Helen Hunt does her part well,but the rest of the cast come only for a while in the beginning and in the end.Its a Tom Hanks show all the way.
While I can't call it a masterpiece,the movie is definitely worth to be watched a few times.
