Notorious "shock jock" Max Hudson (Steven Weber) is at the radio studio in middle of his daily broadcast when his wife Jeannette is killed at home. Though the police are persuaded that Jeannete's death was accidental, Monk (Tony Shalhoub) suspects that Max is a murderer, despite his "perfect" alibi. In his efforts to break Max down, Monk agrees to guest on his radio show--where he nearly becomes a murderer himself when Max begins cracking cruel jokes about the detective's late wife Trudy. As it turns out, the key to mystery is in the paws of an extremely well-trained dog. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
Shot almost entirely on a two-and-a-half-story recreation of a full-size operating airport terminal, this romantic comedy from director Steven Spielberg revolves around an Eastern European man by the name of Viktor Navorski (Tom Hanks), whose plans of immigrating to New York were hastened by a violent coup in his home country. Unfortunately, Viktor finds himself on the wrong end of a nasty technicality while en route to America: His passport was issued from a country, which, during its upheaval, ceased to exist in an official capacity. Unauthorized to leave Kennedy Airport upon his arrival and unable to return home, Viktor finds himself exiled inside the terminal's international transit lounge. Though airport official Frank Dixon (Stanley Tucci) views Viktor as an annoying bureaucratic glitch, other airport employees -- including a beautiful flight attendant by the name of Amelia (Catherine Zeta-Jones) -- come to see him as a welcome, if unofficial, addition to their numbers. As the days stretch on into months, the terminal transforms from an intimidating atmosphere of forced assimilation into a country within itself, complete with culture, ambition, status, complex diversity, and the need for love. The supporting cast includes Diego Luna, Chi McBride, Kumar Pallana, Zoe Saldana, Eddie Jones, and Jude Ciccolella. ~ Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide
