A Wise Film

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 2002)

"Cast Away" is an interesting film in the first place for a lot of reasons. One being the ever so famous Tom Hanks as the star, 2nd being Robert Zemeckis as the director, 3rd for having an intriguing plot that makes one wonder what really is the fuss behind a Fed Ex guy stranded on a deserted island due to a plane crash.
I really enjoyed watching this movie. It's indeed a worthwhile experience. "Cast Away" is a film with wisdom. It shows a lot of metaphors (sometimes with humor) to the truths we go through in life, and the one thing that it points out couldn't be more clearer to me by the time I finished watching the film. This film made me appreciate what life has to offer for me and eventually taught me more reasons why we shouldn't give up in life.
Tom Hanks and Robert Zemeckis's 2nd collaboration (Forrest Gump being the first one) in this film is an excellent idea. They're both geniuses in their fields. The rest of the cast and crew of "Cast Away" also did an excellent job.
Definitely a worthy movie to buy in DVD. Go watch "Cast Away" if you still haven't! You'll laugh and maybe you'll cry during the sad scenes, but most importantly, you'll learn.
