Inspired by the true story of an Iranian man

Rating: 7/10 (13 December 2019)

This was inspired by the true story of an Iranian man stranded for years at the Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris. Search it and you will see. I guess Spielberg decided that an Eastern-European man at the JFK airport would be a more interesting story for the mostly American viewers.
Tom Hank is a fabulous actor. He saves the day anytime. He was able to be his great self who can make you laugh and cry at the same time. Cast Away and Forrest Gump are examples that bear witness to that.
7/10 from me. It could have reflected the real story and also been given more purpose and meaning (the plot as a whole).
