The Terminal

Viewed: 1.16.05 Rental
Anyone in it: Tom Hanks, and Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Plot: An eastern immigrant finds himself stranded in JFK airport, and must take up temporary residence there.

Comment: I cannot stand Tom Hanks. He is always the same in a movie, I hate the way he “acts,” drives me crazy. However, I wanted to see this movie because I read about the actual man this movie is based on from a “Bathroom Reader” book. The guy still lives in the terminal! Anyway, the movie is only based on his expereince living in the terminal, and that is about all the similarities the two stories have. The other thing it had going for it was that Steven Spielburg was behind it. The story is told pretty well, and is calmly enjoyable to view.

Score: B+
