blast away

Rating: Null/10 (30 January 2001)

after all, it's not just about a drifted man like robinson crusoe story...
basically the movie is divided into three segments:
the first part is the 'normal'-modern life of chuck. very related to us, hardly use his feeling, all things revolve around logic and routines.
the middle part (and the tiresome one) off course is the drifted part. where he was sucked back into stone age. where he has to recollect his basic nature as human being, not as a civilized person.
and the last part is the reunion; not with his girlfriend, but with his lost humanity.
like painting, the style and the gradient is much like forrest gump; telling us about how uncertain life is. but this one tells you more transparent message.
the most touching moment is when chuck telling himself that 'i'm so sad that i lost her. but i'm very glad she's there with me all the time..' it is indeed a mature way to deal with loosing someone you love.
cast away is more a spiritual story than just an adventure movie. it is indeed a must for everyone who's been questioning about our everyday life. it is a reflection of how you deal with difficulties in life and how you handle towards god's plans.
a parallel course with 'alive', but with more deep enlightment.
a must-see for anybody who wishes to recollect their value of relationships, with others and with god.
