Chuck Noland is a FedEx systems engineer whose personal and professional life are ruled by the clock. His fast-paced career takes him to many different locations, causing him to be away from his girlfriend Kelly. Chuck's life is abruptly changed when, after a plane crash, he becomes stranded on a remote island. Now, stripped of the conveniences of everyday life, he first must meet the basic needs of survival, including water, food and shelter. Chuck, who is the consummate problem solver, eventually figures out how to sustain himself physically. After four years, fate gives Chuck a chance to fight his way back to civilization. He does so, but only to find an unexpected emotional challenge greater than all the earlier physical ones. His ability to persevere and to hope are a product of his life-changing experience.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Good Movie submitted by jarroyo on August 1, 2012, 12:37pm When I first heard about this movie I thought it would be boring; a man living alone on an island. It was surprisingly pretty good and interesting. I think Tom Hanks did a great job portraying a man who has to survive alone.

Potent submitted by drsmcl on July 14, 2015, 1:20pm A fantastic movie that thrives off of Hank's spectacular acting. There's no music for the first half of the film; the silence speaks volumes.

tom hanks is great submitted by Jackie77 on August 20, 2015, 8:40pm This moving was way too boring for me. Just a man on a raft in an ocean. Not much else. Was heartbraking at times when he was seeming to lose grip with reality. Especially when he lost his only friend mr. Wilson, the volleyball. Tom did a superb job acting however.

impressive submitted by Adam Graham on August 31, 2018, 11:30pm So impressive that Hanks did a whole movie by himself

Some cool scenery and a bad tooth submitted by tbbrown76 on July 14, 2020, 11:08am When a volleyball is your best friend you've been away too long. Highly recommended.

A- submitted by markwells on June 20, 2022, 6:23pm I thought if the ending had been more succinct this would have been a masterpiece. It's still a great movie. Grade A-.
