As far as drama goes, this is among the best. I should be able to recommend this fundamentally based on "Tom Hanks trapped in an airport", especially given how popular "Cast Away" was.

I have to admit that yet, Viktor doesn't simply succumb to despair. "The Terminal" is something special. His story resonates deeply, reminding us that even in the face of adversity, our innate desire for connection and purpose can prevail.

The production design is incredible. As far as drama goes, this is top-tier. End of story.

The story is full of small moments showing **** adjusting to his limited new environment: trying to feed himself, helping a few others whether they want help or not, finding ways of amusing himself or keeping busy and, inevitably, slowing becoming involved with a flight attendant he sees often. Most movies need a bad guy and, as if his situation wasn’t giving our hero enough headaches, the security head played by Stanley Tucci periodically plots to get our stranded traveler arrested so that huge will be relocated and therefore someone else’s problem.
