Info

In the South Pacific island of Makatea, career-driven magazine editor Robin Monroe is on a week-long vacation getaway with her boyfriend, Frank Martin. An emergency work assignment in neighboring Tahiti requires Robin to hire the cantankerous pilot Quinn Harris who had flown them to the island on a sea plane. While flying, a powerful storm forces Quinn to make an emergency landing on a nearby deserted island. The dissimilar pair avoid each other at first, until they're forced to team up to escape from the island -- and some pirates who want their heads.

Six Days Seven Nights Audience Reviews

Unlimitedia Sick Product of a Sick System

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant
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.
mpurvismattp I've seen this movie quit a few times before but it's still got charm and I still really enjoy watching it. Ford and Heche show real chemistry and they also show good comedic ability in their roles. Schwimmer pretty much renews his ole role of "friends" Ross but it works here and Obradors adds a certain Je ne sais quoi if ya get my drift. Overall this movie has a lot going for it, I guess you would call it a romantic comedy but it's got good action, good humor, Danny Trejo as a no lines saying pirate (not one line, really people? Sorry Danny) and a good story that works well for what it is...a fun movie. This is a great film to watch with a date as it really caters to both sexes and should be entertaining to most who watch, so sit back and kick yer feet up and just enjoy the ride people.
AaronCapenBanner Ivan Reitman directed this romantic comedy-adventure that stars Harrison Ford as Quinn Harris, a boozing and grumpy pilot hired by beautiful New York executive Robin Monroe(played by Anne Heche) to fly her to Tahiti for business reasons, but unfortunately are forced down on a seemingly deserted island by a storm. While trying to repair the plane, and gather supplies to survive their stay, they find themselves(you guessed it!) falling for each other, even as an unexpected danger arises... Well cast at least, with two most appealing performances by Ford & Heche, and the location is also quite beautiful, and while it is certainly innocuous, it is also utterly predictable, though it's about as amiable as can be under the circumstances. Not bad for what it is.
thekarmicnomad The premise for this movie is so old its worn down to the metal - that doesn't mean this film is automatically going to be bad.However it is.All the elements for success were there; great - well known actors, a beautiful setting and a wedge of money.Unfortunately there is zero chemistry between any of the main players, in fact they seemed positively awkward around each other. So when their relationships and lives slipped I was neither surprised nor interested.Although this is a rom-com I feel the actors didn't really put the effort in. It felt like they were only hanging around for their pay cheque.The camera work and production are very average not even taking advantage of the beautiful surroundings.You know what is going to happen ten minutes before the characters so you have to stifle yawns and nod politely as a story you have heard countless times before is retold - badly.
