"Six Days, Seven Nights" is throwaway fun, the kind of lightweight summer movie that's more rare these days than it should be. Go to Full Review Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times 01/01/2000
2.5/4
It's the kind of movie that provides diversion for the idle channel-surfer but isn't worth a trip to the theater. A lot of it seems cobbled together out of spare parts. Go to Full Review Jo Berry Radio Times 02/02/2024
3/5
It's enjoyable thanks to the attractive screen presence of Heche and Ford, but director Ivan Reitman fails to capitalize on his leads' chemistry. Go to Full Review Alistair Lawrence Common Sense Media 04/11/2022

A starry cast and idyllic location can't save this largely-forgotten adventure-comedy from feeling lost at sea. Go to Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews 03/03/2021

...a somewhat hit-and-miss endeavor that benefits substantially from Ford's remarkably loose, engaging turn. Go to Full Review Film Threat 12/06/2005

Blobaticus B Oct 27 SIX SEVEN SIX SEVEN SIX SEVEN See more Tracy S Oct 11 So cheesy. Loved it. See more J Aug 2 I saw this in the theatres, OK movie...good for a late night fall asleep to flick. See more Marcus T @MarcusT12 May 30 This movie kept my attention while I was watching it, but it limped along from one incident to the next without any real tension holding the story together. The two leads were likeable enough, but didn't have much chemistry together so it wasn't believable that they would fall in love. Not one of Harrison Ford's better movies. He is much better as an action movie hero than a romantic lead. Overall, I would say the script and the direction were weak. I wasn't expecting much, but I was hoping for more. See more Ralph R Jan 30 Six Days, Seven Nights is an easygoing adventure rom-com that benefits from its tropical setting, solid production, and the natural charm of Harrison Ford and Anne Heche. Their chemistry keeps things entertaining, and the film has a breezy, energetic feel that makes it watchable. The cinematography captures the island beautifully, and the music complements the lighthearted tone. It is the kind of movie that is easy to sit through, with enough fun moments to keep it from feeling dull. The biggest drawback is the predictability of the story. The plot follows a formula so closely that there is little room for surprises or creativity. Comedy and serious moments don’t always blend well, making some scenes feel unintentionally awkward. It never fully commits to being an adventure, romance, or comedy, which leaves it feeling a bit weightless. That said, if you go in just looking for a simple, visually appealing adventure with likable leads, it does the job well enough. See more D3Z 1 10/26/2024 As much as I appreciate what Harrison Ford was trying to salvage within Six Days, Seven Nights, this was not one of his best performances. The film ended up in a rather disappointing and bland with poorly written characters that shared little or no chemistry and a plot that is nonsensical. See more Read all reviews
