Amazon.com: As superfluous remakes go, Flight of the Phoenix could've been better, and could've been worse. It's a passable popcorn adventure, especially for those unfamiliar with the 1965 original, which starred James Stewart, made headlines for the crash-landing death of stunt-pilot Paul Mantz, and now stands as a minor classic of its era. This flashy remake stars Dennis Quaid in Stewart's role, adds a woman to the list of plane-crash survivors, and showcases Giovanni Ribisi, who gives a cleverly eccentric performance as the model-airplane designer who proposes to rebuild a crashed cargo plane into a single-engine escape from certain death in the remote Gobi desert. Both films are essentially identical, but this remake is somehow less believable (due to shortcuts in a haphazardly written screenplay) and much more spectacular, owing to the advantage of impressive special effects. Otherwise it's a routine dose of survivalist entertainment from the director of Behind Enemy Lines, never convincing enough to be genuinely compelling, but certainly never boring. --Jeff Shannon

A group of air crash survivors are stranded in the Mongolian desert with no chance of rescue. Facing a brutal environment, dwindling resources, and an attack by desert smugglers, they realize their only hope is doing the "impossible"--building a new plane from the wreckage. This remake was often enjoyable and even uplifting.

An oil crew and a transport aircraft come together with the Gobi desert
to make a film about survival against the odds.
A model air plane designer is the unlikely hero of this drama
with a pilot who has lost hope.
Using the tools at hand without water and despair eating at their souls,
they work together as an unlikely team to build a single hull
aircraft that takes them out of the desert.
I liked the film and thought it inspiring even if is is a remake

They must have hired a seven-year-old to write this script, because any eight-year-old can google "Gobi Desert" and discover that the Mongolian desert is cold. The average temperature in July is 65 degrees F, which means the survivors of the plane crash would have frozen at night. Although there are a few sand dunes, most of the Mongolian desert is rough, hard-packed terrain. Heat, sweat, sand storms? I don't think so.
If the writers want us to suspend disbelief, we can do that. After all, ... Read More

What's the problem with this version of Flight of the Phoenix? It can't be the original with James Stewart. And that's okay. The problem comes in when everyone tries to compare this version with the original. Quite frankly, nothing can compare with the original, the acting is just too good to be surpassed.
So I suggest not comparing to the original, and judging this Flight of the Phoenix on its own grounds. If you do, it's actually a pretty fun, entertaining film. Dennis Quaid plays Dennis ... Read More

This is one of the best made films I ever saw. The acting was perfect
especially Dennis Quaid and GiovanniRabisi. The photograpy was magnificent. Story line was excellent. How can this only get three stars??? Considering the nothing but stupid action films that are being released now, it shows there are still words in a movie instead of beastly plastic figurines. I highly recommend this film.Saw this in blu-ray. If you take the time to listen to the making of the film by the men who actually took the ... Read More
