Details

In the South Pacific island of Makatea, career-driven magazine editor Robin Monroe is on a week-long vacation getaway with her boyfriend, Frank Martin. An emergency work assignment in neighboring Tahiti requires Robin to hire the cantankerous pilot Quinn Harris who had flown them to Makatea on a small transport plane. While flying, a powerful storm forces Quinn to make an emergency landing on a nearby deserted island. The dissimilar pair avoid each other at first, until they're forced to team up to escape from the island -- and some pirates who want their heads.

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Hotwriter99 I honestly do not understand why so many hate on this movie so much; it's funny, has a decent amount of action, the right amount of sexiness, and the chemistry between Harrison Ford and Anne Heche is AMAZING! They are great together! You don't see Harrison Ford in that many comedies but he knocked this right out of the park; I laughed at every funny encounter. I will admit, David Schwimmer was my least favorite part of the whole thing; it was like watching Ross from FRIENDS in a feature film. But perhaps that was the point of his comic relief as it does fit with his character fairly well. Regardless, this movie deserves a lot more credit. It's a great movie to watch and you'll laugh, enjoy the suspense, and feel the sexual tension. In my opinion, that's a recipe for a really great movie.
gwnightscream Harrison Ford, Anne Heche, David Schwimmer, Jacqueline Obradors and Temeura Morrison star in Ivan Reitman's 1998 romance comedy. Heche plays Robin, a New York magazine editor who goes on vacation to Tahiti with her fiancée, Frank (Schwimmer). After their arrival, Robin is called in to work for a very important business deal. She tries to take a quick flight with help from cargo pilot, Quinn (Ford). They travel during a storm and crash on a remote island somewhere outside Tahiti. Soon, they find themselves on an adventure and fall for each other while trying to get back. Obradors plays Quinn's assistant, Angelica and Morrison (Star Wars Prequels) plays Jager, a pirate. I've always enjoyed this film, Ford is great as usual, he & Heche have good chemistry and Randy Edelman's score is also good. I recommend this.
mpurvismattp I've seen this movie quit a few times before but it's still got charm and I still really enjoy watching it. Ford and Heche show real chemistry and they also show good comedic ability in their roles. Schwimmer pretty much renews his ole role of "friends" Ross but it works here and Obradors adds a certain Je ne sais quoi if ya get my drift. Overall this movie has a lot going for it, I guess you would call it a romantic comedy but it's got good action, good humor, Danny Trejo as a no lines saying pirate (not one line, really people? Sorry Danny) and a good story that works well for what it is...a fun movie. This is a great film to watch with a date as it really caters to both sexes and should be entertaining to most who watch, so sit back and kick yer feet up and just enjoy the ride people.
a-leubecker This movie is largely remembered somewhat controversially as it was made when Ellen Degenerate came out of the closet and beat us over the head with her gayness. This is relevant because Anne Heche was revealed to be Ellen's Lover and was filming this movie at the time. Weather or not this helped or hindered the movie's popularity, we will never know for sure. As the movie itself is amusing at best, and forgettable at worst.This movie has plenty of comedic moments that are genuinely funny. Harrison Ford has great chemistry with Anne Heche and is clearly enjoying himself on set. Even the dude from Friends wasn't horrible as long as you keep in mind he's essentially playing his character from the show, Friends.The problems with this movie is the pacing and lack of character development. It moves oddly fast. It's called 6 days and 7 nights but they are only stranded for 2 days one one night. Also their romantic motivations are never clearly defined. I won't spoil it for you but I am left wondering why Harrison Ford's character made the decision that he did.In the end it's a mediocre comedy. It's not bad but neither is it good. But largely it's a harmless comedy, reserved for fans of Harrison Ford who just want to see Han Solo Fart around like Captain Ron
