As real as it gets

Rating: 9/10 (22 March 2002)

What a splash in the face. This movie was amazingly put together and Tom Hanks delivered a performance like no other. He was nominated for Best Actor for his role in this movie. At first, Castaway takes you down an easy-going slope of normalcy and everyday life that we easily take for granted. After that, it's pure survival that becomes so astonishingly gripping. It makes you sad, and it may even make you cry. Zemeckis and Hanks made another great movie together since Forrest Gump. Don't miss out on this movie, especially if your a Tom Hanks fan. The cons? I had a few minor ones. Like, how big was the island? I also didn't like how this movie ended but that is for you to decide. My rating: 9/10
