"Zemeckis pulls off his best directorial effort yet, and that's quite a statement considering the films he already has under his belt." Jon Popick PLANET SICK-BOY "Tom Hanks does an incredible performance in this role, as you would guess." Scott Chitwood MOVIE HEADLINES "Has all the hallmarks of a great motion picture: well-developed characters, solid drama, non-traditional adventure, and an intelligent script." James Berardinelli REELVIEWS "One thing is bound to come out of Cast Away -- a deserved best actor nomination for Hanks." Robin Clifford REELING REVIEWS "A film brimming over-the-top with realism and features one of our most treasured (and likable) actors, Tom Hanks, in an incredible, virtually silent performance as a survivor." Erik Childress EFILMCRITIC.COM "Can a movie that spends about 80% of its runtime alone on an island with one man actually not be boring? You bet." JoBlo, JOBLO'S MOVIE EMPORIUM "Tom Hanks is in nearly every frame of Cast Away -- for more than an hour of the film, he's literally the only human being on the screen and yet you never grow tired of watching him." Rene Rodriguez MIAMI HERALD "Movies that are supposed to be about the 'journeys of the heart' very rarely have real heart. Cast Away is a major exception." Mary F. Pols CONTRA COSTA TIMES "A blockbuster with the soul of an art film, Cast Away is an enormously gratifying surprise ending to a generally disappointing year at the movies." Lou Lumenick NEW YORK POST "Hanks has little besides his body at his disposal, and the actor still creates one of the most poignant and tragic characters ever committed to celluloid." Chuck Rudolph MATINEE MAGAZINE
