Critical reviews

“With a pleasant blend of quirkiness and charm, this is an M. I. T. we can all get into.
— Alynda Wheat[13]
”
“Heche is very likable here. She plays some of the same notes she played when stranded with Harrison Ford in Six Days Seven Nights, or playing Amanda in last year's Everwood guest arc, but also crafts a credible character, and slips into her central role comfortably. Six Days Seven Nights is a 1998 Romantic comedy film interspersed with elements of the adventure film Everwood was a Prime time television Drama that aired in the United States on The WB. Heche and Tupper explore a fiery love scene, and Benrubi's big Ben is the cuddliest TV character since Jorge Garcia's Hurley on Lost. Lost is an Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning American serial drama television series.
