"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
2/5
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

David D @David2026 Jul 17 A fun romp of a film, probably representing the last time Harrison Ford could carry this of. A good couples evening in. See more nick S @Nick_S Jun 28 Cheesy and forgettable. Lots of star power but not much story power. A few funny lines here and there, though often delivered in inappropriate moments that sucked the wind out of the drama. The pirates were the keystone cops of pirates. Schwimer was given the same role he played in Friends. All up barely passes for entertainment. See more Par H @Parhwy Feb 20 1998 was wild. What a casting trifecta: Heche, Schwimmer and Ford, as well as Temuera Morrison. Whomsoever nailed this together was huffing Y2K memes using Netscape Navigator. It is all-too easy to criticise this film. Directing Schwimmer to not be Schwimmer: fail. Heche and Schwimmer kissing: fail. Beautiful scenery improved by the story and actors: fail. Make Heche and Schwimmer likeable: fail. Make a better film than the Star Wars Christmas Special: fail. Make Ford wear a headset in his aeroplane: fail. This is the first time I have seen this film. I watched it on free-to-air having seen it in the TV guide a few hours before it aired and, honestly, it is the first time I have known of its existence. I wish I could turn back time by six days, seven nights. See more Blobaticus B @RT14398142 Oct 27 SIX SEVEN SIX SEVEN SIX SEVEN See more Tracy S @RT31760335 Oct 11 So cheesy. Loved it.
