Major Hole In Plot

Rating: 3/10 (13 January 2015)

I can not ignore major, obvious holes in a movie's plot, especially when they effect the rest of the movie. These two questions will summarize my complaint: 1.) Why why were the I.C.E. agents talking to Navorsky when they knew he could not understand English? and most importantly, 2.) How did he know to stay in the airport terminal when he could not understand English?
The director (Spielberg) did not care enough about The Terminal to patch these holes. I think it's ridiculous to waste movie-goers' time. Besides this major complaint, I also found Hank's character dull and un-compelling. I am not knowledgeable in affairs of immigration and customs, but I find it difficult to believe that I.C.E would create such an uncontrolled situation by releasing this man into the terminal without employing an interpreter to inform him of his situation. It's too bad, because with an intelligent script re-write, we could have had something special.
