For me it's Tom Hank's best work. Just a man and a volleyball for better than two hours and I wasn't bored for a minute. This is not to say some folks won't be. Anyone who was, for instance, bored with Magnolia, may also not have the patience a movie like Cast Away demands. This is not to say the movie is strange like Magnolia, it's actually pretty straight forward, but it is a man alone on an island with a volleyball for over two hours. The fact that Hanks had me completely captivated the entire time was why I consider his performance in this movie, one one of the greatest acting performances I've ever witnessed.
