Heche was convincing as a ditzy press aide in that movie, and it's good to see her given more screen time. She knows what to do with it, too, holding her own with Ford in the comic banter that ensues when Ford's plane crashes on a spectacularly beautiful South Pacific island that looks to be the size of Michigan. Much has been made about the relationship between Ford and Heche in Six Days, Seven Nights. What I liked most about the movie was that their conversation almost seemed improvised, as if the individual who wrote the script sort of left blank spaces for the actors to pencil in whatever lines they wanted to. The dialogue between Ford and Heche is the best part of the weak script, and it's nice to picture the actors making up dialogue as they go along.
Critics are people who look at movies and say that the glass is half empty, rather than half full.
However, there's just enough in this particular glass to give a positive recommendation to Six Days, Seven Nights, a movie that manages to be fun and entertaining in spite of itself. Relax, kick back, and pass the popcorn. Inc. All rights reserved.
