Finch - C C - Nov 7, 2021
Watched almost half of it so far. What can you say -- it's a Tom Hanks movie. Maybe a tad reminiscent of Cast Away. Except Wilson the volleyball talks back and has limbs, is named Jeff, and can lift up motorhomes that need a tire changed.

This was inevitable. Hanks is the ultimate antihero survivor--on a deserted island, in an airport, in earth's orbit, and now in some future dystopian wasteland. He is the perfect cinematic avatar for the lone common man pitted against formidable odds.
