Yeah, I loved this movie. The symbolism was a bit heavy handed, but I loved it's Zen stillness. I believe there is a 40 minutes section of the film that has no dialogue. A happy, but not pat ending. The arc of Hanks's character is gigantic. His difficulty in assimilating back into civilization is right on the $.Lots of people find this movie extremely slow, plodding and dull. While I can understand that, I think the movie captures the feeling of loneliness and desolation perfectly. People that like to be alone seem to enjoy this movie.
