Trite, cute, see the real movie, or read the book

Rating: 4/10 (15 February 2001)

If you want to see an infinitely stronger, and deeper variant of this, pick the Disney Swiss Family Robinson, or go read Robinson Crusoe. Sad, but true. This was very well acted, weakly scripted garbage. I couldn't identify with his character at all, there is NO character development that you would expect in the times involved. Most confusing of all, in this level of despair, he seeks for meaning in... a VOLLEYBALL?!! Worship a tree, talk to God, but don't try so hard to avoid the REALITY of what people seek in these kinds of crisis that you look to a volleyball. He's done much better. He did this script as well as it could be done, but the script frankly sucked.
