Disappointing

Rating: Null/10 (3 January 2001)

I am sorry to say, especially with all the hype thrown at this film, that I did not like this film. Mainly the problem is the film tried to go somewhere, but left me hanging on where. Most of the actions Hanks takes on the island the film doesnt fill us in on what he is trying to accomplish, and by the time you figure it out, he is on to his next action. At the beginning they could have had him talk to himself filling us in on what he's trying to do. It does get a little better when he talks to Wilson. They just didn't fill in enough for the viewer, they left too much up to the viewer to figure out. And the ending once again, just leaves the viewer in the middle of nowhere trying to figure it out. All in all, disappointing.
