Paul S This movie was so much fun to watch, and despite its simple story, it did an amazing job of keeping you hooked from beginning to end. I definitely recommend it for adventure fans! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/15/25 Full Review Audience Member movie was great. Vincent deserves an interview for telling us what really happened at the island Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/06/25 Full Review Nathaly S I love the sound. The sound of loneliness, the sound of sanity drifting away, the sound of time coming undone, the sound of hope echoing through the sea. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/26/25 Full Review Samuel N I don't care what you people say, that damn volley ball was some a better actor than freaking Tom Hanks. I cry every time he floats away! :'( Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/24/25 Full Review Blu B All Time Classic. Phenominal performance by Tom Hanks. His physical acting and emotion he pours into this from start to finish is first rate. This is such a unique type of flick that fits the director perfect. The cinematography is excellent. The direction is pretty subtle and tame honestly. It's pretty basic stuff lots of time but this is such a visually heavy film for 80% of the runtime that you can follow this pretty much the entire way from the moment he gets on the plane to the end. It frontloads all the dialouge for the most part in the first 20 minutes and pulls a fake out basically. The editing is masterful too. Everything Hanks does follows a logical flow and it never feels like things just happen. It really is quite an accomplishment. It's very well paced too and the music is really good. Which is crazy because for most of the runtime there isn't really any score at all but you don't really notice it honestly and it never feels dry. This is a slow burn movie the entire way and it's crazy how again it never feels dry, boring, or meandering. Because not much happens in this action wise. It's all about watching Hanks become a survivor and exploring isolation. The ending is also in a sense very anticlimatic. Instead of wrapping things up, it feels like it just keeps going with exploring the "what happens after the credits roll". It's difficult to describe but even though it's anticlimatic it feels very in depth and interesting to see a side of returning after being lost. Finding a reason to keep going effectively and how the process of being lost effectively happens all over again. It's really in depth stuff and Hanks does an incredible job conveying those feelings the entire way. Everyone should give this a try once. It's what you expect, a surivivor story on a island but it's much more as well. A true character study.
