”After this week in paradise, they're going to need a vacation.”
Dazzle magazine’s Assistant Editor, Robin Monroe (Heche), is thrilled when her boyfriend, Frank (Schwimmer), takes her on a romantic island vacation where he proposes. Unfortunately, her fairy-tale beginning is disrupted when her boss insists she make a quick jaunt over to Tahiti for a photo shoot. Thrust into the hands of a playboy pilot, she’s unprepared for Quinn’s (Ford) caustic charisma and the crash landing they both manage to survive. Stranded on an uninhabited, remote island the two are forced to rely on one another for survival. It’s anybody’s guess whether they’re a match made in heaven…or in hell
Six Days, Seven Nights is a romantic comedy, action-adventure. It masterfully blends humor and heart with excitement and adrenaline. Ford is the quinntessential, arrogant, alpa hero. He can switch from tense to tender in a flash. The man is an absolute delight to watch! Heche is funny and fierce as the wide-eyed woman who finally meets her match in independence, passion and strength. The two play off each other incredibly well...strengthening the other’s comedic abilities. David Schwimmer is a riot as Frank and Jacqueline Obrador is adorable as the brainless, beauty Angelica. I give SDSN four hearts for making me laugh often and wonder what would happen next…including whether or not Robin and Quinn would actually last.
