interesting submitted by jszchen on August 25, 2011, 9:28pm This was a very unique movie, being stranded on a desert island by yourself and what you do all those years

Worthwhile submitted by slugwhisperer on July 12, 2013, 6:10pm Makes me appreciate modern dentistry.

Cool submitted by Claireywang on August 9, 2017, 11:55am There were some things what I would say is highly unlikely to happen, and the part where he is stuck in the out of control plane he is thinking about a pocket watch and not the potentially dangerous situation is crazy. Anyway the whole film was touching,and when he loses the Wilson ball he names Wilson his reaction is very believable. There weresome really painful scenes and a lot of blood. I liked the film, but the ending was a disappointment. Don't watch it if you hate the sight of blood! Oh, also, if you finish this I hope you appreciate modern tech! Think about trying to light a fire with two sticks and then having a lighter as soon as you get home. See what I mean?

Wilson! submitted by markwells on August 27, 2017, 3:39pm Fun, entertaining, believable, (I could think of more adjectives), vehicle that Tom Hanks delivers almost single-handedly. A must-see movie. Grade: A.
