CAST AWAY
A Filmfreak 8/10
Directed by Robert Zemeckis
Screenplay by William Broyles Jr.
Cast includes : Tom Hanks, Helen Hunt
Basic plot outline: Hanks plays a workaholic who gets stranded alone on a desert island after his plane crashes. Away from his loved one (play by Hunt), and his haywire lifestyle, he now has to learn to survive surrounded by the wild, and a few washed up FedEx packages.
Review: From the Filmgod who bought us classics such as the Back to the Future Series, and Forrest Gump, comes yet ANOTHER film masterpiece. Top this off with Hollywood Legend and Mr Nice Guy Tom Hanks in the starring role, as well as one of the best screenplays to hit the Big Screen in a long time. This movie is GREAT! Tom Hanks truly deserves his oscar nomination for Best Actor, and I DEFINITELY recommend it. It's subtle, its funny, and it's brilliantly pieced together.
