Product Description David Freeman (Joey Cramer), a 12-year-old boy, is mysteriously abducted by an alien ship and returns to Earth eight years later, still only 12. He now possesses great navigational powers that enable him to fly his space ship anywhere he desires. Along with the robotic Commander Max (voiced by Paul Reubens under the name Paul Mall) and Mascot Puckmarin, the boy encounters an adventure of extraterrestrial proportions.
Amazon.com Disney's 1986 Flight of the Navigator combines a strong ensemble cast and classic '80s soundtrack with dazzling special effects for a high-flying sci-fi adventure. While searching for his little brother in the woods, 12-year-old David Freeman (Joey Cramer) falls down a ravine and is knocked unconscious. After what seems like minutes, he returns home, only to discover that eight years have passed since he was declared missing and presumed dead. Even more mystifying is that David hasn't aged, nor can he account for the time lapse. Meanwhile, NASA officials stumble upon a futuristic spacecraft and are determined to assess what David knows about it by locking him in a top-secret lab for scanning and testing. His only chance of escape is in the spacecraft manned by Max, a wisecracking robot. Cramer gives an earnest performance, which overcomes an imperfect script, while enough one-liners and imaginative animation will keep families engaged. Watch for Sarah Jessica Parker in one of her first film appearances. Rated PG for language. (Ages 6 and older) --Lynn Gibson

Excellent Movie February 8, 2010 G. Rainey (Indianapolis, IN) I remember this movie from when I was a kid. It is absolutely timeless, my 7 year old daughter loved it just as much as I did. Highly recommend it for your collection if you have children.
Flight of the Navigator November 16, 2009 Shannon Hernandez (Odessa, Texas) Arrived promptly, and promptly watched! One of my favorites as a kid, and a movie sure to please even your own children!
Flight of the Navagator November 11, 2009 Maureen Anne Jakobcic (Michigan) My kids (now in their 20's where so excited that I found this it was one of their childhood favs/ Now their kids can enjoy it.as well as themselves again.
Video October 30, 2009 Beth H. Dwyer (Golden, CO) I bought three copies of the movie at Amazon's price, as I have loved this movie since my kids were in grade school, and now I am giving my grandkids' families the movie. My husband and I watched it this weekend with 6 grandchildren, and he and they were enthralled. As for a review of the video itself, it was flawless...no scratches, etc.
DVD Replaces VHS October 11, 2009 C. F. Mullins (Springfield, OH) This is a story about an eight-year-old boy, a space-ship and time travel. That is the easy part. The government is involved. They have the space ship for awhile in the beginning. It soon develops that they actually had it in the middle, not the beginning. It gets pretty tangled up. It was pretty tangled up before anybody realized that anything was wrong. By the time we get to the end, or what seems like the end, it seems like things will never get straightened out. The boy can go home but not at the right time ... not anywhere near the right time. The right time, of course, was back in the middle where everything started. It might be possible to take him home to the right time, but can an 8-year old human survive the trip "backwards" ? It's a long shot. Should he risk it ? I'm sure this sort of thing would never be allowed "today". It's a classic Sci-Fi tale for dreamers of all ages.
