Exciting, bittersweet film with a clear message.

Rating: 10/10 (2 January 2001)

Tom Hanks will probably win an Oscar for his portrayal of Chuck Nolan. I was very impressed with this movie. I was expecting a remake of Robinson Crusoe, but this is more of a love story than an adventure (albeit a very bittersweet love story). The message, clearly stated by Hanks, is that you must carry on no matter what, because the sun will rise tomorrow, and you never know what the tide may bring.
