Entertaining drama, but it was a bit cliched in its character archetypes, and it felt too long. My boss told me the running time was 2:10, but from beginning of the film to the beginning of the closing credits was only 1:53. Thing is, it felt like 2:20. Or more. It dragged a bit too much.

Still, it was okay. I'd recommend it for its plot.

Incidentally, if you want to read about the true story on which Viktor Nivorksy's tale is based, read it here at snopes.com.

Caught this on the plane last night.

Nit. Viktor lives at "Gate 67", but whenever Amelia returns, we see that gates are labelled with the concourse as well as the gate number (C43).

I'm assuming this is at JFK. Is there a "Gate 67" at the United terminal in JFK?

It's never specified which New York airport this is at, and indeed the terminal itself was a massive set.

Regardless of which airport, or even if it's a fictional airport, the gate numbering nit still stands. He should have been living at gate "C67" (or pick another letter), or Amelia should have been arriving at gate 43 (no 'C').

BTW, I didn't even recognize Ms. Zeta-Jones! I kept asking myself who was playing Amelia!

It never mentioned that it was JFK however when Victor stands by the exit doors, the maps of the airport are of JFK airport, not LGA or EWR

Also, United only flys to LHR, LAX, SFO, NRT, and IAD from JFK, so her flight to Rome and to Crakosia. Also, flights to Canada do not arrive at the International Terminals. Canadian flights(such as the ones on AC to YOW, YYZ, YVR, and YUL on the board in the movie) clear customs in Canada before arriving in the United States and they land at a regular gate. Also, AC only flys to YVR and YYC
