The Terminal



Directed by: Steven Spielberg

Category: Comedy and Drama
Duration: 2 hrs. 08 min

An immigrant (Hanks) fleeing the war that ravages his tiny Eastern European homeland finds himself stuck in the terminal of one of New York City's airports when the time of his landing coincides precisely with the point at which the war causes his nation of origin to no longer exist, meaning that his passport and paperwork are no longer valid. As a man without a home, he takes up residence in the terminal itself, befriending the staff of the airport, and falling in love with an airline flight attendant (Zeta-Jones).


This is another masterpiece by Steven. Something which i think similar to Love Actually. the similarity is the many small stories happening within a movie instead of the usual one story line. it might sound stupid to some of you but i personally think Steven has his own way of directing the movie. you should catch it. Catherine remains a sweetie to me * aww~*. and of course she never fails to cast her charm on me.

however, this movie does tell people that guys, *pointing to the male species* still don't win last. They don't have the last laugh in real lifes even in movies. After so much of waiting and searching, Mr Nice still don't win. This phenomenom is always a chicken and egg situation. Girls like bad Guys. True? i don't know. To me it's just practically showing the world that guys is having all the fun. Happily married, yet with another mistress outside. These guys are just having fun as much as there are single guys lying around in the streets. Where are the girls?

Just as much of being around with bad guys for a while. they tells you that they wanted a good guy. a nice guy who treat them nice in the end. and they only tells you after so much shit and chores they been through. i have a friend who still likes her ex-boyfriend after how much he mis-treated her.

which i simply can't understand.

Is it too much sex in the morning? qouted from catherine in " The Terminal ". or is it the thrill they got from bad guys? so much cheap thrill they have which they overlooked the simplicity of Mr Nice. or is it just that the singaporean ladies know what they want in life, know what they had to have in life , know what they must have, etc.

i was talking to a friend. He was always grumbling about this and that. which i shoot him that the problem probably lies with him not SHE(s). He said, the girl will get guys as long as she willingly to lower her collar button to cleavage or willingly to lost her undies to her ankles. and the guy will get girls only if he drives a car, looks executively clothed or has card holders that holds credit cards instead of cash notes.

Sounds pretty stereo-typing. lets just not doubt that the problem probably lies with him.
