“All I know is that he is stranded on an island and becomes friends with a volleyball. That’s all I know”
No that pretty much sums up the movie
that emotional gut-punch though where Wilson decides to stay...
Yep that’s pretty much it lol. Came down to comment something similar
lol
That's all I ever remember from this movie
not really.. The real message is that universe will make you go through hellish storms, struggles, fights for survival, ... in his case. being stranded on island... the universe does all that in order to make you meet the ONE.
the lady in the end he met.. was always the one.. he would`ve probably never met her had he not gone through that unrealistic unfathomable pain filled fight for survival...
The irony that Chuck needed a dentist so bad while his dentist back home was stealing his girl.
MiegeMan that’s the most ironic thing I’ve ever heard...damn. I’ve never thought of that before.
A double layer of irony is when you realize this is the dentist who fucked up his tooth in the first place.
@@joshjames582 holy shit XD
@@joshjames582 Nothing worse than going to a dentist except going to a shitty dentist.
"Cast Away" because he was stranded on the island? Nope! Cast Away because he was tossed aside and forgotten by the one he held most dear.
Another good Tom Hanks movie is "Catch Me if You Can", based on a true story.
YES!
Echo this
don't forget Philadelphia
Is their a bad Tom Hanks movie?
Yes!!! I love this movie SO much
U know the actor ur watching is a legend when he makes u cry on a freaking Volleyball.
On Inside The Actor’s Studio, Tom Hanks was asked what he thought happened to Chuck after the ending. His response was “He turned around. He went back and made babies with that lady.”
Chuck is a smart man.
@@mycroft16 I read this in Brandon’s voice
@@Blitz-dm3kv The one with the package with wings on it just like on the etrance to her ranch and and then he saw the wing on the back of her truck knowing as she drove away who she was.
The Terminal. Tom plays a guy who's forced to live in an airport. It's kind of like being stranded on an island but with lots of people around.
The real life story of that is much more interesting. The real guy, Mehran Karimi Nasseri, was in there for 18 years.
@@Gnossiene369
Where did you say not to see the movie? He just dropped an interesting fact
It was ok but somewhat clumsy in the post 911 atmosphere
@@peterfarrabuhk123 What? for real. I didn't know it was based on a real person. 18 years....wow! Actually, some airports are better then houses.
There is actually a movie like that by steven king, its called the langoliers, there is a group of people that get stranded back in time and have to get back to the present time before these monster things eat the world up. The cgi is pretty bad but its still good.
“He’s a chump compared to chuck”
Ha love that
Your face at the "Four years later" lmao
"I hope he doesn't have to pull a tooth out", hard edit to the ice skate in his mouth 😆
I've never watched that scene in it's entirety. lol Cover my eyes everytime he picks up that rock.
@Goat Man Knocking it out is a bad idea too, more likely to just snap it making it impossible to pull. I've experienced plenty of nerve pain in my teeth. I shattered two of them, the nerves would be exposed, I'd be in agony then they'd wear away, rinse and repeat.
@@mattnar3865 Yup, I was in agonizing pain for a good few months of my life because of a tooth.
Doctor told me it's not infected so I left it at that. Nerves eventually died and now I feel great again.
I'd be afraid in a stranded situation more from infection, than pain.
I always thought that the whale was keeping an eye on him the whole way making sure he was ok.
same! doesn’t the whale blow water on him to wake him up?
Wow that is so cool to see it that way
I think it definitely was. Whales are intelligent and emotional animals, and they're definitely capable of keeping an eye on and caring for a human being in distress.
"Maybe my biggest fear is just the open water, deep ocean stuff, and so something like that is legitimately horrifying for me...". Looks at schedule for the week. Oh TITANIC! Oh boy. lol
The Abyss would be fun!
@@OnTheRocks71 Hopefully if he does that, it's the director's cut.
Near, far, WHEREVER YOU ARE...
If you haven't seen it, Jaws would be a good one to do too 😏
"Tom Hanks talks to a volleyball for two hours and it's still mesmerizing" pretty much sums up why Hanks is the best actor of his generation and on the shortlist of greatest actors of all-time.
Fun Fact: Robert Zemeckis filmed WHAT LIES BENEATH during the hiatus that it took for Tom Hanks to lose all that weight and grow his hair/beard for the 2nd half of the film.
WHAT LIES BENEATH and CAST AWAY were released only 4 months apart in theaters in 2000.
And they kept the same crew to film both.
@M 40 wasnt that a parody commercial for FedEx? Lol
4 months was all it took...amazing
M 40 Lol, if only that was true
Holy shit. I didnt know that!
"I guess there's bit of a learning curve when it comes to coconuts" I want that on a T-Shirt. 7:33
"That was my worst nightmare!
...
Let's watch that again!"
Oh god the scene when he loses Wilson got me so emotional
This is the only film in history that has ever broken my heart over a volleyball 🥺
Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988) is an absolute must for any Robert Zemeckis fan, which was also produced by Steven Spielberg. It was actually his follow-up to Back to the Future, and led to the birth of the Disney Renaissance a year later.
jp3813 terrible movie haha
@@jacksullivan5762 Troll fail.
@@jacksullivan5762 Terrible take. Who Framed Roger Rabbit is OUTSTANDING!
"Wilson's the only loyal man in this movie" I'm dead 🤣🤣🤣
I saw this in theaters and I legit cried when Hanks started saying "I'm sorry Wilson! Wilson...I'm sorry!" I cried like a freaking baby. Mix that with the music and the legit struggle he had trying to get Wilson back. What a great scene.
So glad you liked it, Brandon. After “Cast Away” came out and was a big hit, the Wilson company actually released a Wilson volleyball with the blood face. I bought one and it stares back at me in my display cabinet every day. I just had to get one.
I enjoyed your discussion as well. For more Zemeckis, try the following: “Contact,” “Romancing the Stone,” “Flight,” “The Polar Express,” and “The Walk.” Just a few of his that I really enjoyed. 👍
He should save Polar Express for Christmas. Another fun Hanks performance(s).
I have a Wilson ball too😀
Might get one for my boat
We have Wilson in the office :)
Fun fact! Zemeckis filmed this movie in two parts with a break in the middle so that Tom Hanks could lose weight to show his transformation on the island. In that span of time, he filmed 'What Lies Beneath.'
Your reaction makes me feel as though I'm watching the film for the first time...I was overwhelmed, at multiple parts. Brilliant and genuine. Thanks, man!
When Wilson falls into the water all I can think of is, "RUM HAM!!!
Hahaha .. XD
I cant wait :D
Zemeckis has said in an interview that inside the package was a "waterproof, solar-powered satellite phone."
OH...... MY...... GAWD!!!!!! Really!!!???? This movie has moved closer to my top 5 of all time because of this bit, if it's true.
Never mind. Found out it was 2 bottles of Salsa Verde from the script. Lol. movies.stackexchange.com/questions/34227/what-is-the-content-of-the-one-un-opened-package-in-castaway
But yeah he jokingly referred to the package being a waterproof phone.
@@simpleysims Actually it's been stated several times that it definitely was a phone, I believe the salsa thing was just a joke
@@dobson. 👀
There's an old Fed Ex Super Bowl ad about this. He drops off that package to the woman and asks what's inside. She opens it and inside is everything he'd need to survive on that island. It's a classic! Please see if you can find it.
@Chloe Kennedy HAHa I love this answer.
Here is what was in the last package:
- Satellite phone
- GPS Locator
- Fishing Rod
- Water Purifier
- Seeds
v=NahyfTAVNqk
@@gazorbo. Hahaha!! Thank you!
@@gazorbo. Why would anyone put all that in a package and fedex it to someone though?
@@SoWhosGae Because... someone ordered everything to go on a remote camping/fishing trip in the wilderness?
Or someone was prep'ing their bunker for when they would finally come out of it?
Cast Away is such a phenomenal and truly special film; watching you react to it and especially the ending, which is metaphorically and symbolically amazing, just made me cry. Wow
My love for this film is neverending and it truly deserves the amazing attention it gets; it’s storytelling and Chuck’s completed arc is such a lesson of hope and teaching people to move forward no matter the hardships and challenges you will face.
It has and will continue to stand the test of time
If I was stuck on an island all I would to keep me happy for a few years would be your reaction channel. You are a Wilson.
This may be the nicest compliment I've recieved yet! Haha thanks!
I love how the title of the film is “Cast Away” and not “Castaway”. Castaway would have referred to a person who is stranded on an island. True enough, he was a castaway. However, he was also cast away-she moved on without him; she cast him away. He’s left with nothing and has to see what is over the horizon for him.
She did not cast him away because that shows a desire to rid herself of him. She could not reasonably collapse her marriage and her daughter’s established life.
@@FallenHellscape please know that I do not advocate that she should have done that. I wasn’t throwing rocks at her and the decisions she made.
My comment was more in reference to her decision to move on after he was presumed dead, which no one can blame her for.

I'd second Leon. Great performances.
I love how they feed him seafood when he gets rescued
You’re editing is great haha “I really hope he doesn’t have to pull a tooth out”
One of my all time favorites. So emotional, so beautifully directed and acted. Just a perfect movie imo.
PHILADELPHIA!! Tom Hanks, Denzel Washington - a deeply emotional and gritty role for Hanks in that.
Also... The Pelican Brief, The Client ... great movies you won’t regret watching!
Honestly out of all the reaction channels that rose in popularity recently, I must say that I especially love yours. Your reactions are always so genuine and real. You do crack jokes here and there and I love it, but the movie is always the priority for you and I can appreciate that among so many channels. Keep this up!
Also... Who would've thought that people could get emotional over a volley ball :D
Well said. I think his reactions are the best. 'Genuine and real'.
That plane crash scene was so horrifying. Those other people on the flight... That guy saved Chuck's life by giving him that life-vest.
Worked at a movie theatre when this came out, great film! I remember a late session Friday night it was the last session in at 10:30pm and a crew of mid teens came in to see something else but were 30min late for...I recommend they give this a go..they hesitantly decided to see this tho it didn’t seem to appeal...saw them after the film and they were like that was amazing, were excited and just mind blown! the first 30 min they said they were thinking about leaving as it’s a bit slow but stuck it out..they couldn’t be more pleased with the film, they were buzzing! great story telling and story development with good execution is a joy for all.
I love this movie! I was so sad when Wilson was lost 😫😫
Wilson's "death" makes me cry every.single.time! I'm crying now!
my favorite thing about this movie is that the overarching theme is hope. that's what the package represented: hope that he would get off the island one day and be able to deliver it. that's also why he used the symbol on the package to decorate his sail. this movie is brilliant! I knew you would get the themes and enjoy it as much as we all do. we stan Tom Hanks 😉thanks for another amazing reaction Brandon! 😃
I appreciate that you avoid swearing. It really adds to your chill, wholesome vibe while you express yourself while watching the film. Keep it up!
Brandon Likes Movies is going to be the reason fetch finally happens.
Fetch lives!
He probably doesn’t get that reference. ;)
I should start wearing pink on Wednesdays too
He should watch that movie too! Lol
One of my initial reactions included wondering whose tone-deaf idea it was to serve seafood at his welcome back party.
They were just razzin' him
Please do “12 Angry Men”
... and then ...
“Treasure of the Sierra Madre”
Two timeless classics that hold up well and will not disappoint.
And Muppet Treasure Island!
Those 2 are great
I support this message
@@koatam - Haha! How could I forget? All together they are the Holy Trilogy of film!
Two of the greatest movies ever made, I had a friend who said "I don't like black and white movies", showed him those two, and he completly changed his mind.
I'd say that one of my favourite Zemeckis films that I don't think you've watched here yet has to be CONTACT. On top of every other fantastic quality to the film, it has some wonderful sound design that I can still hear when I think about it 20+ years later. It is an excellent piece of science fiction based on a novel by Carl Sagan. I think it would make for a great reaction video too.
One of my favourite films. Thought provoking ending.. #Static
Wow I never heard of it! I’m definitely gonna check it out!
I fell on some coral once when my family was visiting Hawaii, I can attest that it is unforgiving.
starrkitty1 OUCH!😬
If you are afraid of water like that, you should face your fear and watch "The Abyss" if you never seen it. But if you do, please watch the director's cut !
Great movie!
+1
@@Some__Rando not even a raft bro it's two divers right in the ocean treading water the whole time. You might be thinking of something else. I know there was a sequel that i never bothered to watch but the first film had no rafts.
I remember Tom Hanks giving an interview shortly after _Survivor S1_ came out and he talked about how that show and _Cast Away_ filmed at the same time and he was curious to see which one the press would latch onto and create a bigger spectacle over. Personally I enjoy _Cast Away_ and never got into _Survivor._ I think at the time the press made a bigger spectacle of _Survivor._ At least it seemed that way. I think _Cast Away_ is more memorable and long-lasting though.
That shot of the plane going down to the bottom of the ocean is fucking petrifying when you realise how big a plane is and how insignificantly tiny it looks going down into the abyss. The bit where they’re heading towards the water as well still leaves me short of breath no matter how many times I see it. Absolutely excellent filming!
Hey I just wanted to recommend a movie with Tom Hanks that his acting gives me the chills, the name is “Captan Phillips” is quite intense because is based on a real story
Logical next step after Tom Hanks stranded on an island, Tom Hanks stranded in an airport: The Terminal.
IM SORRY, WILSON!! That's the saddest scene in film history.
I remember going to see this at the cinema when it was first released with my parents and my brother. The audience were shocked when it said he'd been there 4 years and some of them jumped when the spear got the fish in that same shot
My all time favorite performance by any actor ever and my 16th favorite film of all time. Hanks nails it from start to finish. Happy to see you continuing the streak of reacting to all my favorite films. Great stuff as always.
Also fun fact: I once knew the actress that played the farmer who gives Hanks directions as the end of the film. She was a friend of my dad's, and her name was Lari White. It was fun to hear her stories about working on this amazing film.
You rank this movie your 16th favourite, very specific. What's your top 5?
Also, awesome that you knew that lady!
I freaking sobbed when he lost wilson. When an actor gets me to cry for a ball, you know it's really good. Please react to Contact for another aresome Zemekis movie.
If you haven't seen Saving Private Ryan, you need to.
Next week 👍
@@salmonero6472 Excellent.
I WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT THIS, YOU BEAT ME TO IT! Extremely glad I wasn't the only one wanting him to watch this.
Who hasn't watch Private Ryan lmfaoooo
I think it's a tad overrated tbh. Of war movies that came out around that time I prefer 'Enemy at the Gates'.
I was so excited for this review. When it came out, people said....meh.....stuck on an island. And then I watched it and fell in love with it. It was then when I said Tom Hanks is amazing. I now watched everything he is in.
Your PG swearing really heckin’ makes these videos.
Freak yeah, I love it as well 😁
I’ve never heard “fetch” used in that way before.
I actually really appreciated that.
“Stop trying to make ‘fetch’ happen!”
I love this movie and I'm so glad you liked it. I feel like, at the time it came out, there was so much parody around it (especially Wilson) that it wasn't as appreciated as it should have been as a genuinely great movie.
I lived in Nashville, TN when it came out and the entire audience went nuts when Kelly told Chuck about the Titans' Super Bowl loss.
Only just started the reaction but the lack of music while he’s stranded real adds to the isolation
Ryan Tepper dude I noticed the same thing when I first watched it and I’m good with subtle details so that really got me!
Good grief I never noticed it before. That was a great decision by whoever was in charge of sound.
Two of my all time biggest fears: #1 The large wide and deep ocean, #2 losing teeth.......
Beautiful. Even after 20 years and a dozen viewings, I still get so emotional toward the end of this movie. While no one has an experience like Chuck Nolan, many of us have experienced an arc of love, complacency, loss, mundane life, and sudden unpredictable events that change everything for either good or ill. The movie could so easily have just had him get back together with Kelly and live happily ever after. If that happened, it is a decent but forgettable movie. But life doesn’t work like that, and this movie had the courage to be honest about it.
Probably one in my top 3 filmmakers. Robert Zemeckis is just utterly brilliant at making films
You're so wholesome. You're voice and way of speaking sorta reminds me of Bob Ross. Very calming and uplifting. Thanks for being you.
The ocean and all thats in it has always been one of my biggest fears, so that plane crash scene is straight up nightmare fuel.
I love this movie and Hanks is an incredible actor!
He is truly an extraordinary actor
Im excited for "The Hateful Eight" reaction.
Since I've found this channel, I've become addicted. Love the Breaking Bad reviews especially. However I'm so confused that with such a huge dvd collection how you've failed to watch so many popular, pop culture heavy, Oscar worthy, notorious, trilogy movies 🤯🤯😳🤯😳. This isn't a criticism I'm just taken aback.
I guess that means he should start recommending movies and TV shows to us! 😁
I've wondered this too. How did he miss so many ?
He answered this in his very first video, if I recall correctly a lot of the movies in his collection behind him are unopened and are what he is reacting to
I've seen so many movies in my life, I used to have wall of DVD like Bradon, and yet there are many classics that I never watched simply because of timing, them going under my radar, pushing its viewing to later, etc. Once a movie starts being less relavant, but not old enough to be a "vintage classic" it's easier to lose track of them. Then there are the movies that are so hyped up that you kinda get scared to watch because you want to reserve them for when you're sure you're gonna be in the mood for it because you're not so sure about them since it doesn't seems like your type of movie, even though you know you're probably gonna love them anyway.
@@JimmyMcTrill ahhh I must of missed that video but now I know, thanks.
Man, you always make me rewatch movies I haven't watched in many years. You're excitement is really contagious.
He never opened up the last package because it was to keep him sane, if he knew what was inside of it he would go insane but with him not knowing whats inside, it lets him think and imagine aswell as get curious. Details like that is why i love this movie
Nice, for me it was that it kent him sane not because of curious of what was inside but because he knew he was giving up hope if he opened that package. He had to keep hope he would get the chance to deliver it.
Here is what was in the last package:
- Satellite phone
- GPS Locator
- Fishing Rod
- Water Purifier
- Seeds
v=NahyfTAVNqk
This movie will always be one of my favorites. Every scene was captured so well.
"Second hand pain" that's my new phrase 😂
Apparently when Zemeckis asked Silvestri to do the music he asked him to do a score that portrays a feeling of being alone. So for the entire time (with some exceptions) he’s on the island there is no music but before and after that there is. My high school music teacher told us about that and I watched it that night. I love Cast Away! ❤️
Your low-key hilarious my guy!! Also I appreciate that you don’t cuss.
bruh...im sure he cusses, but he doesnt want his video to be age restricted.
Thank you so much 😁
@@jeffbuckley4453 how do you know? I got the impression this guy was a Mormon or something lol
Cast Away is one of my favorite movies. I watch it about once a year every year. So glad you liked the movie too and thank you for doing this reaction. I didn't even realize the soundtrack was missing for a good portion of the film, even though I see it once every year, haha. It adds so much strength and emotion when it does come in though and I never even realized it. That's amazing to learn or notice something new even though I've seen it so much by now.
Your review is. 100% on point, this is one of my favorite movies to watch during the holidays, plus , you feel like your with the guy the whole time , it was a crazy good movie , never has a movie been made like this , I just wish we got more in the end, I want more!!! 😄😁
Interesting sound design is how the soundtrack cuts out when he's isolated on the island; but when he breaks through the surf and leaves the island for the first time it comes back in.
Another great Robert Zemeckis film involving a plane is "Flight" starring Denzel Washinton. That would be a great one for a future reaction.
Yes, I love Contact!
"Flight" is OK, but I'd go straight to "Sully."
@@Tampahop hmm they are both great movies. But Sully was a little boring in my point of view. I was in a bad situation when I watched "Flight". The message of the that story helped me a lot.
I concur!
completely unrealistic though
Cast Away is one of my favorite films of all time - always moves me. Tom Hanks was sublime and the perfect choice for this role - one of the few actors that can get you to care and stay completely engaged willing him back to civilization ;)
This movie always reminds me of that quote: "Necessity is the mother of invention..."
Love this movie, Tom Hanks is amazing! Another good “survival” movie with Tom is Captain Phillips, worth watching!
Please add GOOD WILL HUNTING to your list. Amazing movie
24:36... “Give this guy a raise!” A hahahahaha hah!!!!
Man you are really putting in the work. I Can only imagine how many hours you‘re busy editing these days. Much appreciated 👍🏻
Thank you so much!! I'm just happy everyone is enjoying the videos 😁
Hey Brandon! i was watching your videos for a while now and i gotta say, its always a delight to see your reactions. Mainly because your humble persona really draws you in and lets you appreciate the movie even more after hearing your thougts. I also noticed that you actually stay quiet and really pay attention to the scene and not blabber around like other commentary youtubers. Stay true to yourself and keeep up the good work. ;)
The original 12 angry men, please. Love your reactions and your channel!
The actress at the end is Lari White who many of us first knew from CMT and country radio as a great singer. She had some nice hits in the 90s. She died of cancer at the age of 52.
"Oh No!!...Tom Hanks just ate it raw!" Quote That
The woman at the end is actress Lari White, who also had a successful singing career. Unfortunately, she passed away from cancer 2 years ago at the young age of 52.
If you like Zemeckis, please see Used Cars, Romancing The Stone, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, and Death Becomes Her.
He Directed Romancing The Stone so people would Take The Back To The Future Script Seriously and buy it!!!
I LOST it at "4 Years Later" 😂😂 your reaction was all of us
My new favorite channel. I like your honest reactions mixed with your knowledge of film. Great work.
Fantastic movie! Tom hanks is phenomenal and this is one of my favorite performances from him. Glad you liked it, very excited for seven samurai and breaking bad!
“What Lies Beneath” is another great BZ. movie with Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer.
Love that one!!
nah...that movie was LEGIT lame....
lol nope
Cast Away is so good! one of my favorite movie for sure. As for someone that Likes Movies Brandon I'm surprised that haven't seen so many good movies till now. I enjoy your movie reaction :)
Came for the “what’s up friends”, stayed for the reaction
It's amazing how compelling this movie is. And the ending holds the honor of making me cry more than any other moment in cinema ever.
If you haven't seen Nightcrawler, I would really like to see you react to it.
Really good suggestion.
All time performance from Gyllenhaal. His best.
Your reactions continue to be pure. Thank you for being real. Keep being you! And more Tom Hanks movies are always welcomed.
I think you’ll be that type of person who would appreciate Netflix Dark, just a thought.
I just keep loving your movie reactions. You've made my year a bit more bearable....thank you!
