CAST AWAY (DIDIER BECU)

Rating: 7/10 (11 November 2003)

There are two ways to see this movie, the good and the bad way.... Let's start with the good one...if a movie depends on the acting of one actor then he has to be brilliant, especially for a movie that lasts 3 hours and the choice of Tom Hanks is (again) brilliant as he is a superb actor. The story of a succesfull businessman who lands on a desolated island is intriguing (especially when he lost his mind...just imagine what you would do!!!). Of course it's all a bit too Hollywood to be real but still a tour de force for Hanks who once again plays in the sort of movie the whole world talks about. And then the bad thing : hmmmm this whole movie is sponsored by Fedex, and you wonder why they haven't put some commercial trailers in it.... shameless to the point. But all by all more than just a good movie!!!
