Almost there.

Rating: 7/10 (18 June 2007)

When I first saw this film, I thought the execution was amazing from a great filmmaker in Robert Zemickis.
However, once Hanks gets to the island, it falls flat after 1 hour.
You can only be on an island that long.
I told my date at the time, they should have introduced ghosts, monsters, weird hatches, etc.
Well, 4 years later, they made LOST.
Lost is what Castaway could have been.
Instead of a documentary, they could have made a very entertaining cast away movie.
Nonetheless, Zemickis and Hanks, I know both wanted a mature look at a very well-used topic. They partially succeeded, I guess.
Good film, but could have been so much better.
7/10.
LOST (TV SHOW) 10/10
