All-Around Great Movie

Rating: 10/10 (21 March 2005)

There were several reasons about why this movie was awesome. First of all, I get really tired of seeing redundant movies. I want to see a movie every once in awhile with substance like this film had. I have an older daughter, 12, who watched it with me. I didn't have to explain too much to her. She understood how clever Victor (Hank character) had become, once he was approached by the acting Airport Commissioner, and how he was even more empowered when he began to grasp the Englsih language. Another reason it was great is that we got to see the commitment Victor had to his dead father. How many of us wouldn't have bolted for the door. I also appreciated how Mr. Spielberg showed that many times, the "man" is always trying to get us down, and that many times, we can "stick it to him" with intelligence.
