We know, though, that the world he left now seems strange to him and that it will take a long while for him to reorient himself and decide where he will go next. 'Cast Away' has been criticised by some for having an unsatisfying ending. It is long and the opposite of feel good, but utterly riveting, thanks to the bold risk-taking and Hanks giving a performance for the ages. But once he gets home, the movie falters. Admire both Robert Zemeckis and Tom Hanks, and honestly feel that 'Cast Away' is among the best work of both. There are some moving and beautiful moments on the raft, especially the glimpse of a whale's eye peeking just above the water. A film that remains a masterpiece even with its various minor flaws, Cast Away is an engaging and emotionally powerful tale of the power of the human spirit and. But the film is more impressive than involving and begins to seem more of an acting exercise than a saga about the triumph of the human spirit or the importance of love and family. Noland is an engaging character, and Hanks is undeniably one of the world's most engaging actors. He shreds his leg on coral and has to extract an abscessed tooth. For 45 minutes, we are alone on the island with Noland. There is no music and almost no dialogue. There may be crystal waters and azure skies, but this is no Blue Lagoon, and Hanks is no Brooke Shields. This movie is a moving exploration of what happens when everything we hold on to is taken away from us. What finally makes it possible for him to leave isn't what he relied on in his old life but the hope he has learned on the island. He knows the tides and the seasons well and plans an escape, knowing he'd rather die out on the ocean than stay on the island. Four years later, the side of a cabin bathroom washes ashore, and Noland has what he needs to create a sail. But he leaves one package unopened as a symbol of his identity - the man who gets the packages delivered. A volleyball, stained with his own blood, becomes a companion.
When he finally realizes no one's coming, he gets to work, using items from the packages as survival tools. He expects to be rescued and sorts the FedEx packages that wash up. But his plane crashes in the Pacific, and everyone else is killed. In CAST AWAY, Chuck Noland ( Tom Hanks), a precise time-watcher who works for Federal Express, is called to duty on Christmas Eve and promises his girlfriend ( Helen Hunt) that he'll be home for New Year's.
