What Parents Need to Know
About Flight of the Phoenix
Parents need to know that this movie has intense peril and violence, including a very vivid plane crash, gunfire, and explosions. There are graphic images of wounded and dead characters. The movie includes some strong language (many uses of the "s--t") and smoking. A strength of the movie is the portrayal diverse characters who are strong, brave, loyal, and committed and who work well together.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what you can learn from the different ways that people respond to stress. How many different ways do you see in this movie? Who blames other people? Who works to solve the problem? Why does Elliott want people to say "please?" What was the right thing to do with the injured nomad? Do you agree with the statement about the difference between religion and belief?

Couldn't have been much better
I think this movie could've been for kids (just a bit of violence and lots of argueing). My little bro who's 11 loved this movie. Super exciting, suspensfull... I love the plot. And even though the whole story happens in one same spot it never got dull. I like the characters. The movie couldn't have been much more entertaining

Not too bad
This not the same as the original and not as good but Dennis Quaid plays his part well. There were no women in the original but Amanda Otto did not detract from it at all. In fact that was part of the reason we went to see it. There is not much violence in it and hardly any swearing which is music to my ears. So, all in all it is a very entertaining movie.
