Much better than I originally thought.

Rating: 7/10 (15 February 2014)

I never really enjoyed this movie when it first came out but after watching it again over 10 years later I have found a new appreciation for it. I think initially I was too young to appreciate a film that consists of one man and a desert island for an entire 2 hrs. After I overcame this initial view I discovered that Cast Away is actually a really good movie. Tom Hanks truly is one of the best actors out there. He has the ability to catch your attention and keep you entertained with limited assistance.
There still are the major cringe factors in the movie and also the scenes of heartbreak. And I never will love the ending but it really is a great movie that was very well done.
