Just watched now after all these years, and damn its still as awesome as I remember, I even understood some parts that I didn't get it right when I was a kid! :D
Bet the DVD isnt even remasterd. LISTEN UP PEOPLE. IF YALL WANT THESE COMPANIES TO START TAKING PRIDE IN THESE CULT CLASSICS, DO NOT BUY THESE HALF ASSED RELEASES. HOPEFULLY THEYLL GET IT AND RELEASE THEM REMASTERED WITH, DTS, MULTIPLE LANGUAGES, AND SPECIAL FEATURES. CALL UP AND MAIL THE DISTRIBUTORS AS WELL.
They just don't make movies like this anymore. I want to start crying. I feel sorry for the younger crowd that will never experience the 80's & 90's entertainment culture. Somebody get me a Kleenex..
Same here when i was 5 when it came out, do you think the kid in this movie looks like Joey from Making Contact and does this remind you of ET at times?
@Johnlindsey289 Yeah, he does kind of look like Joey. This movie reminds me of E.T. as well as Explorers, The Last Starfighter and even The Neverending Story.
Wow, I just stumbled across this by accident, it's funny years later that I remember that the voice of the robot was different in the trailer than in the actual movie. You dont hear shit about this movie anymore, funny how things like that happen, this was a blockbuster. This movie, batteries not included, cocoon, etc it's like they never existed.
I was adiccted to this film as a kid. I watched it on t.v. a lot and rented it a few times. Great film. Totally pwns E.T. and Last Starfighter. That film should so be redone in 3D.
This was and is such a great movie. I have it on my top shelf along with my other favorites. As an adult it has a lot of deep themes and emotional implications of the parents loss, reunion, the brothers changing places, the scientists conflict between studying a goldmine versus giving a child his life back, etc. Plus as people have said, for its time the special effects are mind blowing. In my top five for sure.
damn i thought i would never find this movie.............I thought it was that fred savage movie called the boy who could fly......... That was okay but this one....... wow...... as a kid the imaginative theme was awesome
@VenisRoxas they are remaking the film it is suppose to come out next year read wikipedia website for more info i loved this film when i was 7 years old in 1991 and i am shocked that they are remaking this!
Remember seeing this movie when i was quite young, anyone know what happened to the actor who played David, he seemed to be acting alot in the 80's period, but after that?

This movie sucks balls. Even when I was 8 years old I thought it sucked. The Neverending Story was way better. However, it is not quite as bad as that "Mac and Me" movie that was probably the worst pile of deuce ever made.
i remembered watching this when i was a kid.... not sure if this was the movie where when he returned home, he found out his brother, who wears glasses, grew up hence looked older than him.
What a beautiful film - real classic from the 80s. I enjoyed Flight of the Navigator more than E.T. Joey Cramer showed brilliant acting. I loved character Max and his sense of humour. It was great to see amazing and so talented Veronica Cartwright.
oh my god...I´m from spain and I remember that I watched this movie when I was 5 or 6... now im 23 and im at least 10 years looking for the title of this movie cause I only remembered some scenes and I wanted to know the title. After watch the first scene I knew it was the movie I saw when I was a kid...
Why oh Why does Hollywood have to mess with great classic like this. Is there any original thought and creativity anymore. Next thing you know they'll be remaking Rocketeer starring one of the Jonah's brothers.
@jayce79 You'd be right in saying they totally have Lost it. Remakes are the rage now, everyones nostalgic today, because there are no New Ideas, everything's been done. We're in the 2000s now, at the end of the Calender.
Well in essence , there really nothing wrong with Nastalgia or even a remake , that really screams for a great remake. But except for a few projects and filmakers , Unholy - hollywood has just jumped the shark in my opinion. Hopefully one day we can get back on track. I hate to be negative and blacklashing. I mean why in the world does this movie need a remake instead of a great sudo-sequel like Neverending Story or Terminator 2 or so on? Just Why?
@jayce79 Im not saying theres nothing wrong with Nostalgia. Im saying thats partly the reason why Hollywood do re-makes, Its like everone says classic one-liners from the A-Team, so Hollywood thinks yeah, lets bring that back. Thats kinda how it seems. I myself dont mind remakes. As long as they have more or less the same Look and feel. But if they change it too much, its not the same, and just fails new "Knight Rider," perfect example.
Oh , Indeed , Knightrider is a great example of a hit 80's show that just can't be recreated. Not like people want really. And not with the same hokey fun and tounge 'n' cheek one liner's that original had. But even that is a classic television show to the screen , not exactley the same thing , but not that much better than what were talking about. It just seems about 85% of Hollywood has just become so genairic and have lost all the original creativity.
@jayce79 Im just trying to read over what you've said that makes sense. I think you're missing my point here, or maybe I need to make it clearer. In terms of re-makes and lets just stay on "Knightrider" for a moment, I like to think that its possible to blend abit of both, obviously drop all that (as you've said) "hokey fun" and "Tounge 'n' cheek" humor, obviously this era is witty today, and the styles, but surley keep the Look of the car at least, just sharpen up the design alittle bit.
@jayce79 I mean everything seems bout Sex, stylish, and relationships today, thats total mainstream, and all thats in the new Knightrider, still hasnt helped the series. Even the Hoff himself walked away from it (I know he's only in the what was it pilot?) I mean thats a sign there that he wasnt liking what they were doing with it. If he was really optimistic bout the revival series, he'd have had more involvement in it.
@RaikenXion You are right - they only make shows about relationships, sex. Oh and dont forget vampires. What's up with that? Whatever happened to the good ideas in Hollywood. I think you , me, and other 80's children could write a better show or movie.
Oh and Chuck? Gimme a break. Then they cancel Flash Forward!! Least they kept V
@jayce79 At the same time your right, Knightrider is one of those shows that belongs in the 80s, I mean the Idea of a talking, technological car back then worked, because the 80s, you had computers, and stuff that basically just looked naff, but then they thought it was cool. Not saying "Kitt" was shit, but just the whole sci-fi thing, robots, and space. So guess that Idea worked then.
@jayce79 Today, people arent bothered bout if a car can talk or have technological gadgets, but more performance type stuff, alloy breaks, and whats in the engine, and if it has a good sound system. Hollywood will keep making money from remakes and revivals, cus they know thats where the money is, they will always follow the consumer. And because yeah, nobodies passionate about an idea anymore.
This is like the first Disney movie to use curse words. The grown up version of the little brother said 'shit' at one point and we were all blown away.
I'm a freshman in college now, and I've loved this movie all my life. But, you never hear anything about it these days. I looked it up on wikipedia, and it says it only grossed like $18 million in theaters. Why didn't this movie do very well? It's amazing, especially for its time. The spaceship in it looks more convincing than some of the spaceships or other special effects even in some of today's movies!
@baconpie2112 'only grossed like $18 million in theaters. Why didn't this movie do very well?' Well, dont forget the time period - over 20 yrs ago. 18 million was probably worth more back then. I found a neat calculator that said 18 million then is equiv to over $35 million today.
You are right tho, this movie rocked. They dont make them like this anymore. Though the A-Team movie looks neat...
@baconpie2112 I didn't even hear about this movie until I stumbled upon it at work. I work at an Apple repair shop and I had to test if this Macbook I had fixed would play a DVD, I saw this DVD from a Newspaper and I put it in, I had to watch it for about 5 mins then I was gonna eject it cause I was thinking "ok good, it works...hey...this is...pretty good" and I watched the entire movie at work in secret, great film :D
OH MY GOD!!!! This was my FAVE movie growing up ..... this and The Goonies hahaha. I allways called it "Fright of the Alligator" coz I couldnt say it, and I wanted the little alien as a pet! lol
Just in case anyone was interested (I know I was!) what the song playing at :48 is, it's 'Finally Found A Home' by Huey Lewis & The News. Of course it wasn't in the actual film itself! Just a little bit of trivia for ya!
Whenever my brother and I got sick my mom would put this on (she still does lol) it's so awesome....

Great movie. "Hey blimpo, oink, oink, too many twinkies, huh huh!" I loved that Pee Wee Herman voice.

Just in case anyone was interested (I know I was!) what the song playing at :48 is, it's 'Finally Found A Home' by Huey Lewis & The News. Of course it wasn't in the actual film itself! Just a little bit of trivia for ya!

This is when trailers and voices did not HAVE to match. Its happend in many early trailers and even sometimes today.
