Product Description
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!

The African Queen meets Swept Away in this sometimes labored romantic comedy by director Ivan Reitman. Fortunately, he cast an old pro in Harrison Ford, as Quinn Harris, a South Seas charter pilot who must ferry New York fashion editor Robin Monroe (Anne Heche) from one island to another--a hop that falls flat when they fly into a mammoth storm that causes them to crash on a deserted island. The pair resent and resist each other, until they are forced to team up to escape from the island--and some modern pirates who want their heads. If that part of the story is unconvincing, you can always focus on the smoldering comic chemistry between Heche, who displays strong comic instincts, and the ever-reliable Ford. The script is just an excuse for these two flinty characters to strike increasingly romantic sparks off each other, which is always enjoyable to watch. --Marshall Fine

- Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2025One of the best comedy movies. Excellent seller and product. Brand new, unopened DVD. No scratches, the outer box is in pristine condition and plays well.

- Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2024There was nothing to dislike about this film, it was all fun and then some. Harrison Ford is kind of like an older playboy who is having a little fun on an Island. While transporting people back and forth and making a little money to support his drinking habit. Playing around with his little side-kick young hottie. Then Anne Heche comes in with her new DR Beau and fiancee enjoying life thinking she is going to be the next Barbara Walters comes along and puts more laughter into the film she is hilarious when she feels like she is trapped with Harrison Ford and needs to be somewhere and her phone isn't working, and one things leads to another and she is constantly blaming him for everything, in return he is blaming her. Things get twisty and a little danger but all is good and its a very funny movie. I loved it and probably will watch it again like the 10 time or so.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2010When I saw the following review, I laughed out loud.
"Second rate movie with a third rate plot. Ford is beginning to show his age. To make matters worse -- Heche's character is totally uninteresting; a real airhead. Now why would a middle-aged man, who supposedly is wordly, go for a young woman, who between the ears is nothing more than a wind tunnel? How much more entertaining and intriquing this movie could have been if the woman's part was played by someone closer to Ford's age and sophistication! It would have given Ford's character a run for his money, and we would really see the sparks fly. (Ah yes, but this is Hollywood -- no guts, and always choose the easy way out). The pirates were a bit much. Could have been a good flick, but got wasted away -- as usual."
My guess is this review was written by a woman closer to Ford's age, who considers herself to be `sophisticated', and someone who could give Ford's character a 'run for his money'. Whether Harrison, or Quinn, can actually be considered `sophisticated' is another question, which I won't address.
Instead, let's address the question of why a middle-aged man would go for a young woman who may have nothing to offer in the intellect department. Is there anyone out there, other than sophisticated older women, who have any questions about that? Well, maybe we should discuss it, just in case. When a man looks at a woman, various factors are at play. There is the learned response, and there is the programmed response. The programmed response is the result of millions of years of evolution. It says that one should mate with someone who is likely to produce successful offspring. A young mate is more likely to produce successful offspring, and it would be nice if the offspring were nice-looking, so it's safer to pick a mate who is nice-looking. Simple, isn't it? Men may be able to ignore this programming and choose a sophisticated older woman as a companion, but if they do, they are ignoring their evolutionary programming. Young people will say that the old should recognize that their day is done, please fade away, etc, but the fact remains that the programming is still there.
Let's not forget the fact that Quinn starts off with a twenty-something playmate, and winds up with a thirty-something New York sophisticate. That is progress, right? Maybe he did realize that middle age was upon him, and it was time to find someone more his age.
As to the movie, I love the scenery, and I like the fact that the middle-aged man finds happiness - or at least, the prospect of some quality sack-time.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a week!
I liked the movie although I thought Harrison Ford wasn't stretched too much by the script. Anne Heche put in a good performance alongside Harrison Ford but the script was weak at times. David Schwimmer was playing "Ross from Friends" in another movie which annoyed me. Overall a fun, action movie that is light hearted entertainment. Worth a viewing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lots of fun
Lots of fun. An honest, very funny movie. No gratuitous mindless violence, or gratuitous mindless violent sex. Just a good old-fashioned romantic comedy , like from the 40s or 50s. Not the kind of Hollywood slop you would expect today. Anne Heche is very funny, and adorable. She has an excellent comedy sense and timing. Hold on? Oh, what’s that? Just review the product Phil, and don’t try to be a film critic! Ooops, I’m sorry. OK.
The package arrived on time, and there was a disc inside. The disc worked. Would recommend, because it was a package with a disc inside, and the disc worked
