"WILSON????!!!!????"

Rating: 4/10 (2 July 2001)

This movie is so ridiculous, I am going to have a really hard time making fun of it. All I have to say is that five minutes in, my friends and I were taking a sip anytime the (enter name of delivery company that rhymes with "Red Rex") logo is onscreen. That was the prologue.
This movie *NEVER ENDS*. The prologue alone is about five hours long. But finally the plot kicks in and things pick up for a while.
Tom Hanks washes up on the island. He wanders around for days and days. When he isn't wandering around, he yells at the animals in the forest to be quiet. They don't listen to him.
And then, when things couldn't get more crazy, when I couldn't be laughing my rear end off any harder, we meet Wilson.
Wilson is the most interesting character in the movie. All told, he has more screen time than Helen Hunt's character but not as much as the "Red Rex" logo.
You want to see Tom Hanks looking like a Neanderthal and getting into heated arguments with a volleyball? Here's your movie.
You want to roll around on the floor laughing at Tom Hanks looking like a Neanderthal and getting into heated arguments with a volleyball? Let me just say (since that was the same spirit I saw it in) that it is going to take one heck of a movie to beat this one.
