Castaway in an airport terminal

Rating: 6/10 (25 April 2018)

Although the premise of this film is slightly ridiculous and it's full of completely unrealistic situations, it remains a very entertaining watch. Steven Spielberg brings his typical blend of great plot, pacing, characterisation and moments of emotion that will have you cringing in your seat. It's the kind of film that forces you into a good mood and you can't help liking it despite the flaws. The film really displays what a versatile actor Tom hanks really is. Although slightly annoying a times he pulls of the role decently. The simplicity of the story, the interesting range of characters and quirky moments are what really makes this film.
