Tom Hanks puts in a sterling performance as a stranded passenger in Steven Spielberg's amusing tale - improbably based on a true story. He's entirely believable as a confused traveller who arrives at New York's JFK airport from the nation of Krakozhia, only to be told that "America is closed". It transpires that during his flight, there was a military coup in his homeland and the US refuses to recognise the new government. So, with an invalid passport, he can neither enter the country or go anywhere else. But at least he can rely on trolley dolly Catherine Zeta-Jones for tea and sympathy.
