NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

SimonJack The only thing that this film has going for it is the scenery. The idea for the plot of "Six Days Seven Nights" was a good one, if not original, about people being stranded on an island. Unfortunately, the screenplay goes way overboard in the action area with its wild encounters. With a weak script and weak characters, the actors can't save this film. Harrison Ford and Anne Heche seem to reflect the lack of anything of substance in the film, let alone any chemistry for romance. Other things detract from the film - its crude language, pushing of sex, and violence. With all that Quinn Harris (Ford) and Robin Monroe (Heche) face in this film, couldn't the writers and director have squeezed in a couple more oddities? Say, an erupting volcano, or a giant gorilla attack? As others have noted, Harrison Ford, like most actors, had poor roles in films that were turkeys. This is probably one film he'd like to forget.

Wuchak Released in 1998, "Six Days Seven Nights" is a lost-on-a-deserted-island adventure/romance starring Harrison Ford as a small-plane pilot who is stranded on a remote Pacific island with a New York magazine editor (Anne Heche) after his plane crashes during a storm. Not only do they have to survive and find a way back to civilization, but they also have to deal with a band of modern pirates! David Schwimmer plays the woman's fiancé while Jacqueline Obradors plays the romantic dalliance of the pilot. People compare the movie to "The African Queen" for obvious reasons, but "Six Days" seems more farcical. There's also a little "Flight of the Phoenix" (1965) added to the mix. Harrison is charismatic as the stalwart, but slightly alcoholic loner/pilot while Heche is intelligent and likable. Unfortunately, some of their bickering comes across forced in an eye-rolling way, but the movie makes up for it with a surprisingly potent dramatic scene near the end. Beyond that, the movie is quick-paced comic book fluff that never gets boring, but also never goes deep or realistic enough for my tastes. Nevertheless, I'm a sucker for stranded-on-deserted-island flicks. The contrast between Heche and Obradors' characters is interesting: Robin (Heche) is attractive in an intelligent plain-Jane kind of way while Angelica (Obradors) is alluring in a bodacious babe way. The fact that the latter is air-headed and morally dubious removes her from the realm of possibilities, as far as a lifelong soulmate goes. Her ditziness is particularly a turnoff. She's babelicious, though, and the movie tastefully shows it. The film is short and sweet at 98 minutes and was shot at Kaua'i, Hawaii.GRADE: B

Scarecrow-88 Summer movie fluff has spunky and sexy New York pop culture magazine editor Anne Heche flying off with beau David Schwimmer to a resort island for a little week vacation. The pilot is played by Harrison Ford, a handsome yet aging bachelor whose closest relationship is with a stunning island sexpot known for her stage performances which wow the male tourists happening to guzzle cocktails at the hut bars. Because he is defiantly "set in his ways" (he voices his opinion even if it isn't exactly popular, can be a bit rough around the edges in the conversation department in his lack of mincing words, and has the tendency to offer less-than-polite remarks when antagonized) and argumentative when it comes to someone challenging his sense of liberated "relationship purgatory" (he's alone, isn't tied to someone who could throw a monkey wrench in his freedom to go wherever he wants and do whatever he wants), Ford and Heche have a bit of friction (his type doesn't often find his way into the orbit of her NYC social class). So Heche is soaking up the sun, drinking some fruity alcoholic drinks, and enjoying her time with Schwimmer (even agreeing to marry him after his proposal) at the resort, her magazine calls, requesting her to fly to Tahiti for a particular article, certain to make the lead of the week. So she offers $700 bucks to Ford if he will fly her to Tahiti, and he reluctantly agrees. When they encounter a major storm, a bolt of lightning strikes the plane, and Ford must land it on a deserted South Pacific island. Once there, Ford and Heche must find a beacon in the hopes of summoning a rescue crew, but they soon encounter pirates who kill the owner of a yacht and take his possessions! Stranded on lush, tropical environs, the two stars bicker a bit (it is all playful banter), try to avoid clear and present danger (totally intentional tie of Harrison to that movie), and find a means to get off the island. They fall in love, comment on each other's looks, try to keep from freaking out when troubles arise, and go into MacGuyver mode building a plan from old WWII plane parts found within the island. I have to say that Heche looks fantastic and Ford by 1998 had kept himself in impressively athletic shape. Ford has a natural movie star charisma a film so undemanding as this can depend upon. I enjoyed seeing him so relaxed and free of the usual intensity; sometimes an actor of his stature can get away with a film like this which just plucks from other better survival island movies. Heche seems perfectly comfortable in a film like this as the lead (she would rarely get another chance to be featured in such a Hollywood high profile fluff piece as this), and her skimpy bikini outfits certainly convey how much effort she put into getting into shape. Turn your brain off junk food this movie is.Schwimmer is a lot of fun as Heche's fiancé, conflicted about the island hottie who offers her body to him while he's concerned about his missing girlfriend's welfare. His nervy energy is amusing. The pirates subplot is a bit tacked on and truthfully unneeded...it seems like this was applied to provide a little peril for the leads. I felt that those who wrote the film were in dire need of padding to accompany Ford and Heche's arguing and eventual romance.

Catharina_Sweden This is one of those movies, that are so bad that they become good! I mean, as soon as you hear what it is going to be about, you realize how it is going to end (they will fall in love and end up together). You will also guess, roughly, what is going to happen on the island: the man and woman are going to go through some mishaps and adventures, that force them to cooperate and save each others lives. And in the process, they are going to get their eyes open as to each other's good qualities. True: you can just tick the mishaps and adventures off: there is the earthquake, and there are the pirates that give Mr Ford an opportunity to show the girl what a master fighter he is, and there is the old crashed plane that gives Mr Ford an opportunity to show what a master engineer he is, and there is the snake in Miss Heche's panties (wherever else..?), that gives Mr Ford a chance to get into her panties quite literally, and there... Well, you get the idea! :-)The fact that the man and woman should be from entirely different worlds and have - up to then - quite the opposite goals and life-styles is also a prerequisite, that you guess at before the movie has even begun.To sum it up: this movie is VERY predictable, and it contains ALL the clichés... But is it a bad movie..? NO! The movie-makers know how to push your buttons, because all those clichés are exactly what push your buttons whether you want to admit it or not! ...and the thought of spending a week on a desert island with Harrison Ford makes a woman's imagination working overtime..! :-) It is very good as pure entertainment goes!
