Sadly Over-hyped
hyped garbage
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
It's hard not to become emotional if you can put yourself into the characters in this film. What happens when the man you love disappears only to resurface 5 years later? The soundtrack is so perfectly written for the film. It evokes many feelings throughout the film.
What a wonderful story, and performance. I've watched this several times and it is just so good. A simple but well told story with a touching and emotional finale.Good story, good directing, good acting, and good music!
The movie that will tell you everything that you did not know about roots of life, of humanity, of religion...Chack Nolland human being suddenly exposed to dramatic anger of Nature's forces in spite of all cruelty of the circumstances keeps and shows his humanity in every smallest detail. The message and the revealing of the movie is outstanding: humans are specific beings that have by their nature the need for love, for building of memories, for believe in salvation... The loss of volleyball Wilson (aka the shadow of Chack's own personality, to the Yung's psychology ) is symbolic deliberation after which he finally founds salvation (the Sheep that founds Chack in deep Sea after he lost every hope) that is in a matter of fact ultimate Bible's message: loose everything and you will be saved... The movie that leaves me deeply touched for days after each watching...If you are ready to meet your soul, you must see this movie...
I simply love this movie because of the uncertainty as regards to what happens next during the entire movie!I find it hard to believe that Tom Hanks did not won a Oscar for his performance, since he in my opinion deserved it more than anyone else.If you have not seen Cast Away yet, I definitely recommend you to see it right away. I promise you will be blown away by the story and the great performance by Tom Hanks.All the best, Pernille
