Viktor Navorski is a man without a country; his plane took off just as a coup d'etat exploded in his homeland, leaving it in shambles, and now he's stranded at Kennedy Airport, where he's holding a passport that nobody recognizes. While quarantined in the transit lounge until authorities can figure out what to do with him, Viktor simply goes on living – and courts romance with a beautiful flight attendant.

Very enjoyable, cute movie. Almost everyone can empathize with Viktor. I don't normally enjoy comedies too much, but this one wasn't the usual slapstick or toilet humor.

Surprisingly good. Tom Hanks is a brilliant actor. The soundtrack is also worth mentioning.

I don't know how many times I've watched this film. One more time I caught it on tv and I couldn't resist. Viktor Navorski is probably one of the sweetest characters in cinema and one of my favorite Tom Hanks performances. It's so sweet and warm, I always feel great after watching it!

Tom Hanks is a perennial favourite in our house, and his 2004 movie _The Terminal_ is one that somehow I missed along the way. I’ve now fixed that and it’s time to talk about it. Let’s start with the official descri More

Great watch, will likely watch again, and do recommend.

I should be able to recommend this just based on "Tom Hanks trapped in an airport", especially given how popular "Cast Away" was.

I really love what they did with him being foreign and trap in an American airport, but being hard-working a More

THE TERMINAL starts off uniquely non-spielberg, more attune to a Coen Brothers comedy by its performance and edit. Good news to me, not to be disappointed by Act 2 as the story progression shines through a classic Spielberg block and John Williams eastern inspired score. Tom Hanks never drops the ba More
