GREAT PHOTOGRAPHY OF THE OCEAN!

Rating: 8/10 (25 February 2004)

Recently viewed this film and was amazed at the great photography and how beautiful the Island was, Monuriki, Fiji; the beautiful waves and terrifying heights in which the waves towered over poor Tom Hanks (Chuck Nolan),"Catch Me If You Can",'02, who played an outstanding role as a man stranded on a lonely island except for a ball with a face painted on it with his own blood! This film started out in a nowhere place and kept your interest to the very end with travels to Russia and remote areas unknown. Helen Hunt(Kelly Frears),"What Women Want",2000, played a very brief role but important and her acting with Chuck Nolan was very dramatic and drew lots of tears. Kelly gave Chuck her grandfather's watch from his days working for the Southern Pacific Railroad with her picture and it appeared quite often in the film. In other words, 'Pictures Speak Louder Than WORDS'!! Tom Hanks is definitely a SUPER STAR and this film is worth the time to VIEW!
