Yes, It DOES Have An Ending...

by jasonmv1701 , Jan 19 '01
Pros: Stellar writing, directing acting. Just a fine film.
Cons: Some people want an ending.
I'm not surprised that many people didn't get the ending to "Cast Away." It leaves you with little real closure and, after taking you on a wild ride, has you scratching your head. But that's the point. The point to the film is not the island, and how...

And The Oscar Goes To...

by Darkmaze2001 , Dec 24 '00
Pros: Great story and amazing special effects
Cons: Some scenes might be a little slow and dull for some people.
I went to see Cast Away the day it came out with a few of my friends. It was either Cast Away or Dracula 2000, and I am so glad that we made the right choice. The movie is directed by Robert Zemeckis, the same man who brought us Forrest Gump and...

Cast Away

by lanier51 , Jan 27 '01
Pros: The movie has a good theme, but you have to pay attention to the beginning.
Cons: The ending is to quick after returning home. The final package?????
Cast Away was a must see movie for me. In all my 34 years there has only been a few of these. I really enjoyed the
theme and the setting of the movie. As far as Tom Hanks goes I don't think I ever saw a movie of his that was a flop. The island...

Row, row, row your boat...Cast Away...I'M THANKFUL FOR W/O

by kld718 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Sep 27 '02
Pros: Hanks, Hunt, thinking movie
Cons: long, a few boring parts
I wasn’t too sure about watching this movie because I had heard that it was pretty boring, but I took the chance anyway and rented it from Netflix. Sitting down with a friend one night, I was pleasantly surprised with this movie. Yes, there were...

Pros: Great acting
Cons: hated the ending
This movie came highly recommended from my brother and sister. So we rushed right out and saw it...And loved it. I hated the ending but loved the rest. Make sure you take your hankies because you will need it.

A must see

by shoei , Feb 28 '01
Pros: Always something happening
Cons: Ran out of popcorn (didn't mind)
This movie was excellent. I would pay 10.00$ to see it again, even thought it was long i didn't notice, because there was always something happening. It was fairly realistic, think about, it what would you do? It had everything that a good movie...

Yeeheeahahhahahahah, I rule all, dommoerron, sanasaki, HEHEH

by xeno3998 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Dec 31 '00
Pros: Well done script, highly realistic and profound movie, nice and long
Cons: very graphics and not recommended for the tykes, my popcorn felt mushy
A great holiday movie would be a tough thing to come by should you go to the local cinemaplex oh...say, now! This is on of those years that the movie industry both cherishes and detests. This is a year where there are numerous movies passing the $100...

Hanks is Cast Away

by Q-Tip , Dec 22 '00
Pros: Special Effects, Cast, Story
Cons: Ending
The much anticipated Christmas release this year was Cast Away, and believe me, it was worth the wait

Tom Hanks stars as Chuck Noland, a big-time FedEx employee. He is on his way home for New Years with his girlfriend, Kelly (Helen Hunt)....

Leaves Slower Movie-Goers Feeling They've Been On an Island the Past 4 Years.

by jmaslinisahack , Jan 07 '03
Pros: This courageous, double-endinged movie is just what a disillusioned cineast needs.
Cons: Helen Hunt is lovely, but ultimately unnecessary.
It was the ultimate in knowing self-satire when Tom Hanks characterized himself to Meg Ryan when she believed she was in love with another man (albeit, a man she had never met), in "You've Got Mail" as a "fatty." It is even more fitting and fatefully...

Cast Away; And I thought Survivor was good!

by JHershey , Dec 30 '00
Pros: great plot, Tom Hanks does a fantastic job of portraying the emotions of being trapped on a deserted island
Cons: advances time very quickly, doesn't tie up all plot details by end
I did not think that this movie was going to be good. Everyone that ever is in or produces a show or movie about being stranded on an island always have a good ending, and the strandee, always has a good time being away from civilization. This movie...

More Than Just a Three Hour Tour

by daisymae76 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jan 07 '01
Pros: Tom Hanks, strong emotions
Cons: wished it ended better
I really didn't think it would be very interesting to sit through a couple hours of watching a man alone on an island. There would obviously be little dialogue and action. But I have to say, I loved this movie. I was glued to the screen the entire 2 1/2...

Cast Away - Another Triumph for Tom Hanks & Robert Zemeckis

by silentrascal , Apr 13 '03
Pros: Brilliant acting, direction, and a great score grab and keep you in the story.
Cons: Ending is ambiguous, makes you want something to happen that just can't.
It seems to me that when director Robert Zemeckis teams up with actor Tom Hanks, the end result is gold. First it was the excellent film "Forrest Gump", and now the two are back together in "Cast Away", and the result is exactly the same. The combined...

Cast Away got me casted

by nashreviewman , Jun 19 '05
Pros: Awesome Idea For a Movie;Brillant effects;Kickin Plot!
Cons: The Behind the scenes shows a secret!
I rented this movie at Hastings on one lonely night as I knew nothing about this film, just that fabulous Tom Hanks was apart of it! As soon as I popped this movie in I was already starting to enjoy it. It showed the life of Chuck and his relations ...

Forrest Gump Gets Shipwrecked

by Donny_Steele , Jan 08 '01
Pros: Tom Hanks
Cons: Just one con, the professor and Marianne never showed up.
After a sudden plane crash, of which the cause is never revealed, Tom Hanks washes up on a deserted island and gets stuck there for a few years living off of Fed-Ex packages that wash up on shore from the plane, which was owned by the 10am or free...

"Wilson" and the mysterious unopened FedEx package helped

by msabigail , Jan 06 '01
Pros: Excellent acting, unpredictable.
Cons: none
This is one of those movies that you will think about for a few days after seeing it. Tom Hanks deserves an oscar for his superb acting. I saw this movie because it was highly recommended to me and sure enough worth the time and every penny.
