REVIEW: Ocean of an Old Man

22 May 2009 02:51:19 PDT

India Tom Alter is in good form, but unlike Tom Hanks in Cast Away, isn't shown as having any skills to survive on an island where there is almost nothing left. The dialogue is minimal, and the lingering silences are taken to great heights by Tapan Vyas' ...

Written by Rob
Tom Hanks: Yeah, Colin found a Sean McGinly script called The Great Buck Howard, which Sean directed, and it’s going to premiere at Sundance. John Malkovich plays the great Buck Howard.

Written by Jaq Greenspon

Written by dailysalad
Tom Hanks gives a very good performance as Charlie Wilson. Wilson is not a very demanding part, but Hanks gives it his all nonetheless, becoming the character. He stops being Tom Hanks about 10 minutes in. Except when he cries. Julia Roberts looks fantastic and does a nice job delivering her li...
