A tough as nails New York magazine editor (Anne Heche) is surprised when her boyfriend (David Schwimmer) pulls the romantic stunt of spontaneously buying tickets for a romantic South Pacific getaway. The trip seems to be shiny and happy until they find out that a grizzled curmudgeonly pilot (Harrison Ford) is their sole option for reaching their final destination, the remote island of Marcata. Along the way the bickering couple finds themselves stranded on a desert island, threatened by pirates, and ultimately, falling in love. A fun romantic comedy with good comic performances from Ford and Heche. [More]

  • Six Days, Seven Nights
  • Big-screen favorite Harrison Ford stars in this nonstop adventure hit about a dream vacation that turns into a hilarious tropical nightmare! A gruff, rough-hewn cargo pilot living in the islands, Quinn Harris (Ford) hates tourists ... though he's not above making a fast buck from a sharp-tongued New Yorker, Robin Monroe (sexy Anne Heche -- VOLCANO, WAG THE DOG), when she's desperate for a quick flight to Tahiti! But this already uneasy relationship suddenly takes a nosedive when his weather-beaten old plane is forced down in a storm! Now, stranded together on a deserted isle, Quinn and Robin quickly discover all the perils of paradise. As this mismatched pair find themselves facing danger at every turn, you're sure to find their misfortunes fueling one of Hollywood's most entertaining action-comedy hits in years!

    Ford is at least 400 years old and he has still got it...the sexual tension starts and grows, a nice, easy slow burn but it's palpable and believable.
