It only seemed like four years.

Rating: 7/10 (2 January 2001)

Tom Hanks is a consummate professional who will go to whatever extreme necessary to be his character. His only flaw in this film is picking the script. Is it possible to sustain audience involvement for 60 minutes of one person on a deserted island - no people, no animals, not even snakes, lizards and bugs? Four years is a long time to watch a movie.
