I don’t think you understand the movie. Jack was an imaginary friend that Rose made up because she was bored. She eventually started hallucinating and believing that he was real. He couldn’t get on the driftwood and survive because he didn’t exist outside of Rose’s head.

Then it takes them a day to drive from Chicago to St Louis?
It was two days, not a week. Neal Paige left the office in New York at 6:00 pm on Tuesday evening and arrived home on Thursday, Thanksgiving Day. So it was only one day off for travel (Wednesday).
And they drove from St. Louis to Chicago, not vice versa. At one point they are stopped by a Wisconsin state trooper, indicating that they overshot their destination, causing the delay before they rode in the back of the milk truck to Chicago after the state trooper impounded their burned up car.
There are a couple of plot holes in the movie, but you have missed them.
In the 1988 film Desperate Measures, convicted felon Michael Keaton escapes from anesthesia/surgery by drinking an amp of naloxone. Naloxone is not absorbed orally. He should have gotten some far more readily available naltrexone tablets.
Did anyone else watch V in 1983 and then go to med school 15 years later and think back to the scene where Willie (the alien played by Robert Englund) is injured and Dr. Juliet Parish is going to give him some morphine and another alien tells her morphine is poisonous to them and wonder why they spent all that time trying to invent a toxin that would kill the aliens when they could have just used morphine?
PS: Apologies for my politically incorrect use of the term alien. The lizard people clearly preferred to be called “Visitors”.
Wizard of Oz. The whole movie was pretty much unnecessary. Let's say Dorothy landed in Oz. Glenda could simply have sent her home by telling her to click her heels. Glenda (or anyone else) could have told the others to go to the Wiz to cure their Ills. Wicked witch East was dead so Munchkins were OK. WWWest was basically powerless with Glenda and presumably South around (never seen Wicked so don't know backstory).
Instead practically everyone except Glenda was almost killed at some point.
Halloween. Why does Michael walk instead of run? He doesn't want people to think he is a hobby jogger? If I was chased by him I would jog backwards chuckling at him and call him a hobby walker and shout gobble gobble mf.
Another very really extremely ironic one which should be mentioned is Forest Gump. We all see him from childhood as a Bolt like sprinter. He outruns the bikers, he outruns the planes blowing things up in Vietnam(while carrying Bubba), he outruns a football field and makes everyone else on the field look like they are standing still.
Yet we see him become an ultra runner and he looks like a really good ultra runner. How is that possible that he can develop Bekele like endurance when he was shown up to that point to be more of a fast twitch like Bolt. When he started running across America it started as a run across the street, which he continued across the town, then across the State then the country and did it multiple times. The pace he went out at is hard. Realistically if he was a sprinter like he was shown to be then he would have stopped before town with exhaustion. It doesn't make sense. Coleman isn't going to suddenly run 26:17 because this film is literally like that happening. Am I the only one with running knowledge which picked this up.
He always had endurance.
Paraphrased:
Gump: From that day on, if I was going somewhere I was RUNNING!
Barbershop patrons: that's some kind of running fool.
If he had endurance how was he able to be so much faster then all the other guys on the football team and then the bikers and planes in Vietnam. You can't literally be fast and slow twitch. The killer in Halloween is slow twitch as fukk.

Why didn't I hallucinate that he got on the wood?
Shitty special teams. Check the video, he didn't even outrun the side judge.
A bunch of kids jacked up on over-sugared breakfast cereal bonked before they even put in a good effort.
Bunch of slope pilots pumping amphetamines, who knows where they were shooting?

This isn't a plot hole. This could have just as well occurred off screen.
I don't think most people here know what a plot hole is.

Besides the point in no way does the film indicate 26:17 talent. But even if he ran 26:17, that isn't a plot hole, and may be entirely logical in the world of that particular film. The film never sets up rules that would make his level of endurance impossible, therefore, no plot hole here.

This isn't a plot hole, just a poor decision by Jack. Do you know what a plot hole is?
The film also establishes that it is being told through the words of a really old women, and visualized by her audience. This may or may not look like the piece of wood Rose was on when she was younger. No plot hole here.

What??
This also flys in the face of everything he can or can’t do in the comics.
Technically if wanted to reverse time wouldn’t he have to reverse the “direction” of the Universe? Not just the Earth. All he is doing by reversing the Earth’s direction for a bit is increasing the number of hours in that “day”.

The movie never establishes that superman cannot change time by flying around the world really fast in any direction within the physics of that movie universe.
The actual spin of the earth may have nothing to do with the change in the time.
Therefore no plot hole.
Nobody on here seems to know what a plot hole is.
A plot hole is something that defies logic already set up by the film. A plot hole is never just the absence of a plot point (because things may appear off screen) or something that defies our own law of physics (its a fictional world in fictional movies, with rules that are either established or not). Until a rule, logic, or plot device is actually established in the actual film (not just what we assume) and something defies that logic or previous plot point, then no plot hole. Also, mistakes by characters (like Jack not climbing onto the furniture in Titanic), are not plot holes, but simply bad decisions by a characters. Characters must be allowed to make good or bad decisions. Bad decisions aren't all plot holes. Just like Superman's ability to fly like he can is not a plot hole, him being able to reverse time is not a plot hole.
One example of a plot hole is in Ant Man. The film establishes that when the character shrinks or grows larger, then he keeps the same mass. The film clearly establishes that rule and follows that rule for several scenes. Later in the movie, several times the film clearly breaks that rule, clearly increasing the objects mass when they are blown up or decreasing their mass when they shrink.
