In keeping tradition with his resilient characters, in The Terminal, Tom Hanks played a guy who lost his country, who can't even speak or understand English but learned the language by himself using guidebooks, and found employment as a trolley collector and carpenter while trapped inside the terminal of JFK airport. Hanks is definitely the go-to guy for these roles because his name alone and what that brand stands for already translates to feel good movies. An underrated masterpiece from Steven Spielberg, but definitely one of his finest. The Terminal is a  movie that you want to see again and again because of the character's personal journey - his quest to succeed even though there are hurdles along his way. There is catharsis by watching his sheer determination to beat the odds every time he's knocked down, because he always finds a window of opportunity using his sheer wit and skills, which makes him a true survivor and that's why everybody loves Navorski.

56/100 I don't know. I feel like it should be higher, but I can't give this any more than this current rating after watching it. It's objectively good, but subjectively...it's pretty mediocre. Part of the problem here is the actual plot, which is pretty bad when you step back and look at it. There's not nearly enough here for two hours, leading to a movie crammed with subplots while stretching its main plot out in a desperate bid to fill the runtime, to the point where I feel the movie could've benefited from being a good half hour shorter. There are also some leaps in logic here, such as the airport being somehow unable to procure a translator all this time. The terminal itself is also disconnected from reality, feeling like a fantasy realm home to Spielberg's trademark sentimentalism more than an actual location. Speaking of sentimentalism, it's a double-edged sword here with how…
