A film I felt didn t work. I won t get into the why . I was right about their next collaboration. But I had no idea just how bad it would be. And only about seven or eight times have I thought about tossing it aside before finishing it.
CAST AWAY belongs on that list.
Tom Hanks plays a man named Chuck. Chuck is a workaholic problem-solver for FedEx who, because of the importance of his job, can fly off to Russia without so much as packing a bag. She wants marriage, she wants kids, she wants a life with him. But Chuck won t commit. Soon enough Chuck is on a plane that crashes into the ocean and washes up on a deserted island.
