THE TERMINAL (Theatrical Release USA 2004)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.7|5.0 Starsìììì

The Terminal—another classic from Steven Spielberg, one of the best film directors of our time—becomes a WOW! BRAVO! film from its beginning scenes to its ending scenes. Loaded with that certain human-ness that sets great movies apart from good movies, this film has it all…perfect choice of casting for its storyline, the movie relies on Tom Hanks as its main character. Stanley Tucci acts as the protagonist. It could not be a better choice to balance the character Tom Hanks plays. This is a must have for the home video library.
