Rating:  - * Whitney Houston-The Greatest Hits ... This CD contains most of all the songs I love by the great sounding voice of Whitney Houston. If you love her voice and her music, I recommend this CD. Rating: - * The best of Whitney ... I liked that there were 2 CDs - one to dance to and one to relax to. I listen to the dancing one more, but both are very good. Let's not forget, this is Whitney! Rating: - * Whitney ... I just love Whitney Houston and this is a great cd. I wish they would have put a few more songs on the red disk that are on the blue disk. I am not to keen on the blue disk, I don't get into remixes much. But if you do then it's a great buy. Rating: - * Excellent ... It's an excellent CD. It gathers all the best Whitney Houston songs in a double CD. I had one and lost mine, that's why I bouth another one. Rating: - * GREATEST HIT ALBUM - THE BEST EVER ... I have loved playing this album non-stop. I am surprised it is not scratched. Great album with cool down and throw down. |
It's three movies in one, beginning when punctuality-obsessed Federal Express systems engineer Chuck Noland (Tom Hanks) departs on Christmas Eve to escort an ill-fated flight of FedEx packages. Following a mid-Pacific plane crash, movie number two chronicles Chuck's four-year survival on a remote island, totally alone save for a Wilson volleyball (aptly named "Wilson") that becomes Chuck's closest "friend." Movie number three leads up to Chuck's rescue and an awkward encounter with his ex-girlfriend Kelly (Helen Hunt, in a thankless role), for whom Chuck has seemingly risen from the grave.
It's fascinating to witness Chuck's emerging survival skills, and Hanks's remarkable physical transformation is matched by his finely tuned performance. With slow, rhythmic camera moves and brilliant use of sound, Zemeckis wisely avoids the postcard prettiness of The Black Stallion and The Blue Lagoon to emphasize the harshness of Chuck's ascetic solitude, and this stylistic restraint allows Cast Away to resonate more than one might expect. Even the final scene--which feels like a crowd-pleasing compromise--offers hope without shoving it down our throats. You may not feel the emotional rush that you're meant to feel, but Cast Away remains a respectable effort. --Jeff Shannon
