Hollow, empty, superficial and without honor.

Like an 80s feel good buddy movie, with disco instead of Motown, Damon instead of Julia Roberts. And instead of cracking predictable jokes and laugh lines with his buddy....we have a diary cam. So convenient to move the plot along.

It's amazing to me how people don't understand when the plot is being telegraphed to the audience through contrivances -- we're not in the hands of a talented screenwriter. This can be conveyed through action and subtlety i.e. Hanks on the island. Or though clumsy exposition and cardboard characters designed to move the plot forward and explain things to the audience the other characters would already know.

Forget all the implausibilities -- I am not a scientist. I just want a good compelling story about a man trying to survive. Instead, it has the tone and depth of a Friends episode.

That this averages over 8 stars has not only lowers my faith In IMDb -- I had to shut it off after an hour -- but in Americans, and humanity as a hole. Have you people lost your minds. This is rubbish.
