Tom Hanks is great

Rating: 8/10 (20 November 2006)

If anyone still doubted Tom Hanks talent, "The Terminal" came to prove Hanks is one of the best actors ever! After masterpieces like "Apollo 13", "Philadelphia", "Forrest Gump" and "Cast Away" he comes up with another excellent performance. This time he is great as a man whose a fictitious country is in a kind of war (or something like it) which keeps him from coming back home and stepping out of JFK airport. Once he doesn't speak English he cannot communicate with others, and his creativity is the only instrument he has to make people understand him. With very good facial expressions and body language, Hanks makes Navorsky, his character, get our full time attention. If the film is centralized in Hanks, I tell you: this is fair!
