After a deadly plane crash, Chuck Nolan finds himself marooned on a desolate island. With no way to escape, Chuck must find ways to survive in his new home.
Obsessively punctual FedEx executive Chuck Noland (Tom Hanks) is en route to an assignment in Malaysia when his plane crashes over the Pacific Ocean during a storm. The sole survivor of the flight, Chuck washes ashore on a deserted island. When his efforts to sail away and contact help fail, Chuck learns how to survive on the island, where he remains for years, accompanied by only his handmade volleyball friend, Wilson.

[@stumagoo2342]

only Tom Hanks can make us all cry for a volleyball being lost at sea!

[@tombondcrispy6585]

Wilson!!!.....

[@MovieJoob]

Literally, I was feeling like a fool for getting teary at that moment but it was so damn sad!!

[@Silky808]

A god damn volleyball!!!

[@energeez]

Volleyball represents a part of his humanity, so your not just crying over a ball.

[@peterwyatt5702]

We weren't crying for the volleyball. We were crying for him. Tom Hanks' character's loneliness was immense, and therefore he humanized an inanimate object as his only source of hope to one day seeing civilization again.

[@daz_n]

Your reactions are so empathic Jade. Your emotion pours out of the screen 🙂

[@MovieJoob]

Aww thank you so very much!

[@sjd5750]

A bit of sad trivia: Lari White (lady at the end) passed away in 2018, at the age of 52 of cancer. She and her husband had 3 children..She was a Grammy award winning country singer..R.I.P., dear lady.

[@damon6126]

She had such a great voice and presence on stage. So very sad she was taken so young.

[@MovieJoob]

Oh that is awful! Much too young to pass away! 💔 R.I.P.

[@TheRepublican777]

The red head angel wing lady? She was a Grammy winning country singer? I never heard of her and I grew up listening to a lot of country music what songs did she sing?

[@NerdyWatchTV]

"I've got to keep breathing because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring." - This line gives me the feels every single time. 🥲 Thanks for a wholesome reaction.

[@burnout_2017]

Not sure if you noticed or not but there is no music played while he is marooned on the island, its purposely omitted to make him seem more alone in the middle of the ocean. Getting an effect with the lack of an effect.....brilliant

[@MovieJoob]

Oh wow! I didn't consciously notice it but yes it was very effective!!

[@rebo2610]

Did you notice there was no music at all during the island scenes? It only started again as he sailed away on his raft. I really like your honest emotional reactions. I've seen this a million times and don't always cry anymore, but when you cried when he lost Wilson, I cried again. ❤

[@CChissel]

This movie highlights what a great actor Hanks is, for most of the movie it’s just him, alone and with no music or anything and he entertains and gets us to care about a volleyball turned imaginary friend for sanity’s sake. So good!

[@MovieJoob]

Very beautifully put!! Even without all the bells and whistles that come with most films like music or costars he commanded the scene so well!

[@Karadjanov]

Exactly but let's not underestimate the writing as well. Recent times are a perfect example that you could have the most talented cast but if the writing is bad the movie will be mediocre at best.

[@CChissel]

@@Karadjanov That’s very true, not to mention the director who is telling Hanks what to do and how to do it, as well as the improv from the actor brings it all together

[@jackmessick2869]

The only other person to pull such a feat off was James Stewart in a film about Lindbergh crossing the Atlantic (I cannot remember the name of the film).

[@CChissel]

@@jackmessick2869 The Spirit of St. Louis!

[@MosaicRose99]

Tom Hanks said that although Chuck had loved Kelly, his true destiny was always Bettina. That's why he kept her package through the entire time he was on the island and why the angel wings became such a symbol. It was her symbol, his true destiny.

[@shrodingerschat2258]

I like to think that after the scene fades at the end that Chuck got back into his truck and drove after Bettina and they lived happily ever after.

[@RoSaWa386-33]

"A look into the psychology of survival" - exactly. Well thought.

[@MovieJoob]

Thank you very much!

[@mercyfulnate]

Can’t think of an actor having a better decade than Hanks did in the nineties

[@MovieJoob]

He owwwnneed the 90s. 🙌

[@jackmessick2869]

James Stewart in the 1950s.

[@drb6771]

Such an emotional movie, Tom Hanks on his A game as usual!! I cried when he lost Wilson! 😭😭

[@MovieJoob]

Absolutely!! I felt so silly for tearing up but it was utterly heartbreaking! 💔

[@charliepepper333]

Hi jade 👋. The theme of keep breathing because you never know what the tide will bring has helped me through some of my darkest days. Beautiful film. P.S. hit me up when the apocalypse hits..I got your back 😊

[@kolpants]

Thank you Jade, Jordan and Nick for bringing this reaction to us. It was very enjoyable to watch and I hope to see more.

[@MovieJoob]

Awww thank you so incredibly much!! This made my day ❤️❤️❤️ We appreciate you for watching!

[@zmani4379]

Nice reaction - my favorite Tom Hanks movies include Splash, Bachelor Party, The Money Pit, Big, Joe vs the Volcano, Philadelphia, Apollo 13, Catch Me If You Can, The Terminal, Bridge of Spies, Sully, The Post, Elvis, and he’s coming out w Asteroid City I think Hanks was nominated for this - but I don't remember if Wilson was also ...

[@vkdeen7570]

there are very few movies that ever made me teary eyed in the cinema the lion king orginal was 1 (but i was very very young) and when i was older castaway was another. such a beautiful movie with a great message. glad u enoyed it jade

[@djentyman4002]

Another A+ reaction! If you haven’t checked it out already, please watch Apollo 13. It also has Tom Hanks and Gary Sinise who played Lt. Dan in Forrest Gump

[@MovieJoob]

Thank you so very much!! And oooh thank you for the suggestion!

[@WaywardVet]

I'll leave a comment, because algorithms and stuff, but all i have to say is... ...WILSON!!!

[@Lue_Jonin]

As a wilderness survivalist , this movie was always interesting to me..... I specialized in cold climate survival.... this stranded on a tropical island scenario is nearly foreign to me... I was on Guam for a couple years in the military, got to know the coral reef and surrounding ocean pretty well... Still, wouldn't want a survival situation in that environment. Awesome reaction video as always. 👍 ❤ 🎥

[@MovieJoob]

So interesting, as an Australian I’d prefer my chances of surviving in the heat/tropics than the cold but I’d do terribly either way honestly!

[@Lue_Jonin]

@@MovieJoob In cold climates, with snow, "water" is far less an issue compared to the desert or dry climate environments....also bugs, snakes ect are less a factor in cold climates. ❤ ✌ 👣 I've hiked,backpacked, for more miles than I care to remember in the desert heat and dryness....reaching the water sources becomes a life threatening condition..... Nothing more alarming than running out of water.

[@klauspoetsch1841]

I think you would be a very good survivalist, if you have no other choice! 😉

[@solvingpolitics3172]

Can't wait for Cast Away part 2, Wilson's revenge.!

[@jamesmeechan6983]

He did not have depression and loneliness cause he had Wilson to talk to

[@shannonmanning6166]

You're adorable when you cry. So not fair.

[@williamjones6031]

1. It's a good thing he wasn't strapped in that plane. He would have died. 2. Can you imagine how much back pay this guy is going to get? He's not a rank and file worker either. He's an executive. 3. To make himself look like an average out of shape middle aged man Tom Hanks didn't exercise and allowed himself to grow pudgy. Production was then halted for a year so he could lose fifty pounds, work out and grow out his hair and beard for his time spent on the deserted island. 4. Talk about using realistic tactics to survive. 5. Wilson is exactly what he needed to maintain sanity. 6. In a recent interview Hanks says that Chuck went back to Belinda Wings. Inside the opening scene package included her divorce papers. 7. When he's talking to his friend and says, "I had power over nothing...." is what gets to me. 8.Tom Hanks is the best actor of my lifetime. I'm 62 years old. FWIW Morse code for SOS is dit dit dit dah dah dah dit dit dit.

[@mestupkid211986]

They gave that man a fucking SEAFOOD BUFFET on his return. How fucked up is that

[@woooster17]

My favourite line is where Kelly says “you’re the love of my life” That always hits me hard.. If we’re lucky, we all find someone who feels that way for you..or you for them. Sadly, we cannot always have that person. Great film this.. I can’t believe it’s 23 years old

[@GeraldWalling]

This was based on a true story. They took a little liberty with it. The FedEx employee did crash and wound up on an island.

[@GodfatherCZ1]

Hello :) great reaction as always , little dose of fun facts : 1. Director Zemeckis once mentioned , that a solar-powered watertight satelite-phone was in the last unopened Fedex package :) dont know if it was a joke or not but it is fun to think about , never give up and open all packages if it is you , surviving on remote island somewhere :DDD . 2. The screenwriter W. Broyles actually spent a week on the beach trying to survive by himself , that is the reason why it feels so realistic + brilliant acting of Tom Hanks of course :)

[@george217]

Now try "Road to Perdition ". Hanks as an Enforcer/Hitman...

[@kieronball8962]

Great reactions to an incredible movie, Jade.

​oh lovely! then i also highly recommend "lock, stock & two smoking barrels"

[@bigdream_dreambig]

21:14 Yep. The movie that makes you cry over a volleyball. 🏐😭 --- 🙈🤷‍♂😁

[@MovieJoob]

Straight up!! I was so heartbroken over the dang volleyball!! 🥺

[@3DJapan]

Good point asking if he can drive. I'm sure he would remember how but his license would be expired so he can't legally drive.

[@glyngasson8450]

They had to stop filming for 6 months to allow Hanks to get skinny. There were 4 people on the set whose only job was to wipe away everybody's footsteps on the beach

[@MovieJoob]

Oh wow! And omg I didn't even think of the crews footprints, wiping them would be a genuinely important job!!

[@glyngasson8450]

@@MovieJoob there were over 200 people working on the film, so they had their work cut out

[@SnaFubar_24]

Great movie, great reaction! I never understood how a director/screen writer could keep a straight face with a jet engine on the ocean surface still running though. 🙄

[@rbloomquist69]

What a great movie. Amazing how Tom Hanks lost so much weight for the movie

[@MovieJoob]

He did look so under nourished I can’t believe he did that in a short span of time!

[@gravedigger8414]

Such a beautiful movie and such a lovely reaction from you. If I can make a wish: please give us a few more minutes of your thoughts after the movies.

[@heatison11]

You have the most heartfelt reactions

[@MovieJoob]

Awww thank you so much!!

[@hardyharr9377]

Hes an engineer, thats why hes so resourceful. Being an engineer we a literally taught to look for any possible solution. Keep trying until it works basically

[@saulharris6417]

Thank you Jade again you have turned another movie that I enjoyed into an emotional rollercoaster . I really don't know what it is about the way that you open my eyes to see movies that I remember as being good to seeing the emotional side and making them great . Thank you for your beautiful reaction and will be looking forward to your next review

[@RLKmedic0315]

When asked "What was in the unopened package" the director replied "A solar powered GPS enabled satellite phone" 😆 lololol

[@the_last_centurion]

They cut the end scene from the movie. It showed the woman opening the parcel he left at her door. It contained medical supplies, a hunting knife and a satellite phone. 😂

[@skylinerunner1695]

Oh man, that is hilarious, dude!

[@Ksouel]

A lot of people end up thinking he has bought the Wilson ball at the end to make another Wilson, but I think he's actually returning the items he opened and used to the people they were supposed to be delivered.

[@jackson857]

The Pacific episodes 5 and 6?

[@MovieJoob]

Coming soon!! So sorry just got side tracked with films but I'm continuing 🙌❤️

Youngins, in real life, there's no sexy, quirky girl at the end. Not for men. If you fuck up, you're fucked. Be smart. Just word for the wise.

[@saaamember97]

Add the movie "Sully" to your Tom Hanks viewing list. The true story of "The Miracle On The Hudson."

[@MovieJoob]

Haven't heard of it but thank you so much for the suggestion!!

[@3DJapan]

Did you not notice the wings on the back of the truck at the end?

[@CaesiusX]

26:53 IMO it isn't _gaslighting_ for others to try and tell her that she needs to move on, even though she had a feeling he was alive. Do you? 🤷🏼‍♂️ Outstanding reaction. *EDIT:* Did you not catch the wings painted on the back of the woman's truck? You didn't mention it (not here in YT edit anyway). But going to see her was an option most audiences expected him to go towards.😊

[@tombondcrispy6585]

There was also a statue of wings In the ladies yard

[@MASE247]

WILSON!

[@jasondo3001]

Tom Hanks directed a movie called THAT THING YOU DO about a 50s rock band, it’s the only film he’s directed since and it’s very entertaining.

[@bigjay123]

Later on FED-EX went back to put a HUB on that island.😁 I've been on a Deserted island for 4years And I come home to crab legs and sushi. Who's brilliant ideas with that...

[@patchesadamd]

You should watch Captain Philips next! It's a great Tom Hanks movie!

[@jeremybr2020]

I always thought it would be funny if the woman at the end of the movie was home when he brought her the package he had been holding on the whole time. And her response is....."Oh my goodness! Is that my satellite phone I ordered 4 years ago?! Wow, I can't believe it! Oh! And also my vintage zippo lighter. And with every purchase of a lighter it comes with a free flare gun. Don't really need that. Its hard to imagine a scenario where I would need one of those, am I right. But hey.....you never know. Sir? You're looking a little pale. You OK?"

[@TheBigTamale]

Kelly is suspect...🤔

[@numbersasaname2291]

Everyone cries about Hanks “losing” Wilson, but Wilson wasn’t lost - he left. Wilson shows up when Hanks needed him most, and he stayed with Hanks until he knew Hanks was going to be okay and Wilson wasn’t needed anymore. That’s when he left; he swam away because his part in Hanks’ life was over. (Like the friends and important people who have come and gone in our lives, but when they were in it they were exactly who we needed at that point. - And if anyone says this doesn’t happen, either they are lying or they are not self-aware.) In each instance of seeming bad luck, that bad luck actually proved to be good luck - though not immediately obvious. For example, in the aircraft when Kelly’s watch went to the other side of the cabin and he thought he was going to lose it (bad luck), it was him unbuckling and being down on the floor that saved his life as the seat he had been sitting in exploded when the force of the plane going into the water hit it. And this goes on throughout the story. (This is a later in life realization as it needs hindsight perspective to see the points in the past which, at the time, we thought were bad luck actually turned out to be better for us.) In many ways, this draws from Hanks’ character in “Sleepless in Seattle” (traumatic loss, depression) and takes another look at the question he ponders in “Forrest Gump” - do we have a destiny or are our lives like a feather being carried by whatever breeze happens to catch us next?

[@MsCatmando]

The whale doesn't want to harm him unless it's a killer whale or a shark. He's probably dehydrated and delusional. You start to hallucinate as well

[@Radwar99]

Another great Tom Hanks movie you'd really enjoy is Catch Me if You Can with Leonardo DiCaprio, it's based on a true story.

[@MovieJoob]

Thank you so much for the suggestion!! 🙌

[@LCCWPresents]

Peak Tom hanks. Only really a couple good roles after this film.

[@dracoargentum9783]

21:49 My personal Head canon is that the Whale is now saying "Hooman! Hooman! I brought Boats! Hooman!"

[@harpothehealer]

Great reaction I had that kind of feeling returning somewhere after 5 years. For me it is about change. We all change every six months or so as we grow. A lot of people forget that. I remember coming home from war and after an hour back I really didn't want to be there. Everybody was nice but everyone had changed not just me, that is the point I think .

[@bigjay123]

That's why you wear all sports and outdoor stuff watches, shoes, clothes, carry your 'Bug-Out' backpack.

[@bobhartzog4254]

Not sure if this has been said, but you missed the wings painted on the tailgate of the lady's truck at the end. I believe he followed that truck.

[@jasonm8017]

Yes, can he drive? He’s basically a feral creature with no drivers license. I guess it’s like ‘riding a bike’? I let my dog drive me to work once, didn’t go well.

[@victorramsey5575]

This movie is great from many reasons, but my favorite scenes are with the whale/rescue. Large sea creatures know where the shipping lanes are in their neck of the ocean. Whales and dolphins like to swim with boats for fun. I know this from first hand experience. And there's more than a few stories of whales (and possibly manta rays) guiding and pushing smaller vessels into shipping lanes to be rescued. These creatures are mans best friend in the ocean. Manta Rays are my favorite. They actually enjoy human contact and are totally harmless to us. We need to protect the oceans for future generations. #4ocean

[@jackmessick2869]

It's called Cast Away, not Castaway. It's all about casting away your former life, and going on a new adventure with the wings lady. He was so obsessed with time at the beginning; on the island, time became meaningless.

[@RayHardman7567]

Best thing about this movie is that after being rescued, he still considers Wilson his best friend. On an unrelated note, is this Tom Hanks month or something? In the past week or so, I've seen like 10 Hanks movie reviews.

[@watevatube]

You say you're not a survivalist, and would die but if you were faced with that situation I bet you would surprise yourself and what you could do and what you could endure.

[@MovieJoob]

True, human survival instincts are so strong! But I am very untalented 😂

[@watevatube]

@@MovieJoob trying not to argue but... Talent is irrelevant when you are starving, I guarantee you would learn what you needed, a don't think you'd give up. all it takes is some persistence.

[@G_Demolished]

After the way this movie starts, I always wonder if that plane went down because someone at FedEx was rushing the maintenance mechanics.

[@ciaranconlon84]

Small detail but you can see him in coping mode after he washes up because he is collecting the packages and sorting them, presumably by destination.

[@unklesalty3732]

Now re-watch the movie with the knowledge that Kelly was cheating on Chuck. Though they don’t outright say it, all the clues are there.

[@Gabriel_Moline]

My favorite movie! I don’t like the first part, or the last part, but the middle is really good!🌿

[@ninjavigilante5311]

How can u say u don't like certain parts but not the whole movie? Even though you say it's your favorite... makes no sense

[@pjdexter168]

To anyone who's interested in what was in the box he delivers (to the woman in the truck). The original script had Chuck open it and read a letter inside, which read... "You said our life was a prison. Dull. Boring. Empty. I can't begin to tell you how much that hurt. I don't want to lose you. I'm enclosing some salsa, the verde you like. Use it on your sticky rice and think of home. Then come home -- to me. We'll find the spice in our lives again. Together. I love you. Always. Bettina.
