Description

spacecraft. After a mystifying disappearance, David returns, possessing vast,
undiscovered knowledge about the farthest reaches of the universe. With these
sudden navigational powers, David is able to take the fantastic flying machine
anywhere he desires, accompanied by both its wisecracking robotic commander,
Max, and an assortment of bizarre extraterrestrial creatures! Embark on a fun-
filled, fast-paced journey of fantasy and adventure as David takes off on the
flight of a lifetime! Also featuring Sarah Jessica Parker and the voice of
Paul Reubens.|The movie was filmed in Broward County, Florida, and, at the
other extreme, Norway.|Sarah Jessica Parker makes one of her first film
appearances in this 1986 flick.|Paul Reubens (Pee-wee Herman) stars as the
voice of Max, a wisecracking robotic spaceship commander. 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
