Classic Pixar. (4 more)
Superb entertainment for all the family.
Irresistible characters.
Great fun, lots of humour and a must watch, even now, over 22 years after first release.
Tom Hanks as Woody.
The film sports a provocative and appealing story that's every bit the equal of this technical achievement.

Great
Tom Hanks at his finest. This movie was an exciting one to watch. The acting was great and the cinematography beautiful. The story played out masterfully with plenty of naval combat scenes and intense moments. If you like war movies this will definitely entertain you. Worth a watch!

Listen just for Tom Hanks' mellifluous voice
Tom Hanks turns out to be as authentically genuine a writer as can be. The stories in this book range from the hilarious to the deeply touching.
They move in period, location, and manner, but all demonstrate a joy in writing, a pleasure in communicating an intensely American sense of atmosphere, friendship, life and family that is every bit as smart and engaging as the man himself.
While the stories are witty, it is more so because of the man himself. They may not be Pulitzer material, but it truly is a pleasure to read his book while thinking about this imaginative man.

Movie Metropolis (309 KP) rated Cast Away (2000) in Movies

Truly meme worthy, Cast Away features one of Tom Hanks’ best performances in front of the camera. The only reason it didn’t make the list is because Life of Pi features similar films, and I think that is the better film.

One of Hanks' Best
I don't know anyone who doesn't love this film. It's a modern day classic - funny, sad and ridiculously heartwarming. Forrest is one of the most loveable protagonists and is played brilliantly by Tom Hanks, but yet it also provides some of the best supporting characters in Bubba and Lieutenant Dan. I love that it ties in with historical events and It's one of the few films I could watch over and over again and not get bored of. They don't make films like this anymore.

'Woman who is already in relationship hears a man's voice on radio and travels across country to follow him and his small child around.'
Would make a much better thriller. She should have thrown him off the empire state building.

I think this is one of the few films that Tom Hanks is just unbearable to watch! It has nothing to do with Hanks himself and everything to do with his character. Obviously that changes over the course of the film, but it definitely is hard in the beginning. The person that stood out to me the most - other than Philip Seymour Hoffman who I love more than life itself - is Julia Roberts. I feel like this is a role that's very different from anything she's ever done and I really enjoyed watching her in it.
