Cast Away

Tom Hanks stars in this entertaining film about a busy FedEx executive getting into an airplane accident in the ocean and becoming stranded on a deserted island. Hanks must survive on this island in hope that somebody will come around to save him. It cashes in on the success of "Survivor", the television show, but on its own feet, it's fairly good. Some scenes are rather gruesome (this isn't Swiss Family Robinson) but are effective.
