The African Queen meets Swept Away in this sometimes labored romantic comedy by director Ivan Reitman. Fortunately, he cast an old pro in Harrison Ford, as Quinn Harris, a South Seas charter pilot who must ferry New York fashion editor Robin Monroe (Anne Heche) from one island to another--a hop that falls flat when they fly into a mammoth storm that causes them to crash on a deserted island. The pair resent and resist each other, until they are forced to team up to escape from the island--and some modern pirates who want their heads. If that part of the story is unconvincing, you can always focus on the smoldering comic chemistry between Heche, who displays strong comic instincts, and the ever-reliable Ford. The script is just an excuse for these two flinty characters to strike increasingly romantic sparks off each other, which is always enjoyable to watch. --Marshall Fine

Great Movie.......2007-05-01

Movie arrived in great time from seller. I was very happy! We love this movie and recommend it to anyone looking for some good entertainment.

Light-hearted adventurous romantic comedy........2007-02-14

This is a well-cast movie. The actors and actresses work well together; they were perfect; there were no weak points.

This movie is so much fun to watch, that I'm surprised not to find Harrison Ford and Anne Heche playing in other movies together. The chemistry they emit is refreshing. Anne Heche seems to have an innate ability for her timing with humor. She's good, very good. The viewer can't help but be roped into the action segments. You are there.

Also, it was wonderful to watch the athletic prowess that Harrison and Anne showed at work, play, and in the adventurous portions of the movie.

six days and seven nightd.......2007-01-18

one of the last good comidies that isnt outragously stupid.

Six Days, Seven Nights.......2007-01-10

I really loved the movie because how Harrison Ford and Anne Heche played so well together. David Schwimmer was very comical also. It had humor, action and adventure. It would be a very good buy to add to your movie collection.

My Theory.......2007-01-05

I have this theory about movies that you see on an airplane. I don't know if its due to the boredom or a lack of oxygen, but sometimes when you see a movie, while on a long flight, that might otherwise leave you cold, you find yourself being charmed. So it was with Six Days, Seven Nights. And the great thing about it is that it never wears off! I can still watch this movie and, even though I KNOW its not very good, I really enjoy it. So, I don't know, maybe if you breath into a bag the first time you play it you'll get the same sensation. Its worth a try.
(By the way, shouldn't it be Seven Days, Six Nights? I mean, come on, what travel agent doesn't count the day you arrive and the day you depart?)

More of Anne Heche, please..........2006-06-24

Six Days Seven Nights, brings to the screen the story of an unlikely pair that gets stranded on a South Pacific isle, "Lost-style."
Harrison Ford, Anne Heche and Jacqueline Obradors (both of whom are GORGEOUS!), David Schwimmer (who is in his familiar "Ross" role), and the rest of the cast, carry out their performances very well, though the plot could have been a lot better.
The major setbacks were in relation to their unrealistic encounters with the pirates and the unrealistic way and ease by which they fixed up their plane, took off, and then landed again. It was a bit much...
Overall, the setting, the acting, and the music are very good, while the plot, the humor, and the dialogues could have been better.
Though by far not a masterpiece, Six Days Seven Nights is a movie worth watching, as it will provide for an evening's entertainment. 3 1/2 Stars

Tropical Romantic Memories.......2003-10-06

Great Album! A super mix of various tropical themes uncluttered by vocals expressing a variety of moods. Very good background for carribean themed parties or just soft listening.

Edelman gives his six days and seven nights of fame........2002-10-08

Randy Edelman continues to impress me scoring hit after hit and this one is a perfect example of that. Edelman goes hawaiian with this score (due to the setting of the film) and throws in an impressive orchestral sound to accompany it. The theme first appears in "Into the Mist" and has that trademark Edelman sound with soaring strings and cymbal crashes that put the icing on the cake. The theme itself is the love theme of the film and is pretty. It occurs a lot throughout the score in various places, but is not overused. The other motif is a hawaiian dance tune, complete with guitars, synthesizers, orchestra, and lots of percussion. It makes you want to get up and dance like an idiot (I wouldn't try it). This thematic material occurs most noticeably in "Maketea", "Pink Kawala", "Fixing the Old Beaver", and the odd sounding "Lunching with Peacocks", which I read somewhere sounds like "Lunching with Alka-Seltzer" (listen to the beginning of the track to see what I mean). The other tracks to point out are "Crashdance" and "Pirates" which has the same percussion work as "The Race" in "The Skulls" soundtrack also composed by Edelman. Tailing off the soundtrack is a song by Taj Mahal which is one of the dumbest songs i've ever heard. Your best bet is to stop after track 20 and skip track 21, unless off-beat music with lyrics that you cannot understand are your thing. All in all, a fine work and a job well done by Edelman, who is one of my favorite composers today.

Very pleasant, but no "party" tunes here..........2001-12-20

There is apparently some confusion regarding the type of music contained in this recording. This is not a "Jimmy Buffett" style, have a good time, party album. Most of the twenty instrumental tracks, are straight orchestral pieces. Perhaps seven of the tracks have what I would call a "tropical" influence, characterized by a "jungle" or "island" drumbeat with the melody played above by various instruments. Except for the too short, "Pink Kawala" there are no dance tunes here.

What makes this collection interesting is of course the "tropical" influence, the mixing of different instruments and rhythms, with the traditional orchestral sound. The results are mostly positive. It would have been nice if there a few more upbeat "parrothead" party type tunes, but that was not what composer Randy Edelman had in mind. Choosing to go with an orchestral approach, with some modern touches. It seems that synthesized sounds are used a good deal in the rhythm tracks, which kind of gives the music a "robotic" groove at times. There are instances where the music sounds just a bit too clean and "unnatural".

There are no strong repetitive musical themes, and the overall package is a pretty good combination of styles. Tracks like "Crashdance", "Fixing The Old Beaver", Subways and Skyscrapers", "Maketea", "Pirates" and "A Ray of Hope" are among the best to be found here. Nothing really outstanding, just a pleasant change of pace. Like a vacation!

Just plain grand !.......2001-03-29

After the movie at the theater, I had to get the VHS. Now that I have a DVD, I had to get the disc, and finally, not least the audio CD. It's just plain grand litening to these tunes while working, driving, falling to sleep, whatever ! I even recorded the film soundtrack on audio cassette, makes also great entertainment while working...

Down to Earth.......2002-01-28

I found this movie to be very down to earth, entertaining and witty. There was laughter, and there was tears. It was just like I expected with all the circumstances involved. It just seemed so real for the town size, and location. Russell Crowe and others did NOT dissappoint me. Well acted etc. I just loved it.
