The island scenes are great

Rating: 9/10 (13 July 2001)

Tom Hanks is Type A FedEx exec stranded alone on South Pacific island after plane wreck; Hunt is the girl he leaves behind. I guess the off-island stuff was necessary, at least to some extent, but I didn't find it in the least engaging except for the very end. The bulk of the movie, with Hanks alone on the island, is lots of fun and beautifully filmed. Wilson goes down as one of the more unique movie characters.
