I rarely like movie remakes but the one they did on this movie with Jim Belushi was very good. 'I am the danger'...Hiesenberg NRA Certified Pistol Instructor NRA Certified Rifle Instructor NRA Life Member | |||

The first copy of this movie I ever acquired turned out to be a bootleg copy DVD. The giveaway was when I was looking at the cover artwork, and.... is that an F-15? I wasn't aware of the 1995 remake... apparently it was for Aussie TV. I have my own style of humor. I call it Snarkasm. | |||

Seen both. I prefer the Bogart film. Like Casablanca, Maltese Falcon, a reflection of another time and the sentiments of the writers. The 1995 version with Belushi, isn't that bad, it's watchable. Not to be confused with the other Sahara movie - the Clive Cussler adaption, with McConaughey/Zahn/Cruz. We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid." ~ Benjamin Franklin.

I was seriously disappointed in the Cussler Sahara. It was virtually unwatchable. Disappointing because I was always a fan of the Dirk Pitt series (at least the earlier ones, until he brought Pitt's kids into the mix). I didn't know about the Belushi remake of Bogart's Sahara, I'll have to try to find that. Bogart's version is one of my favorite movies (as is Action in the North Atlantic). | |||

I take it you're a Bogart fan. Look for a copy of "In a Lonely Place" - 1950. ********* "Some people are alive today because it's against the law to kill them". | |||

I liked it. I don't think that Steve Zahn was cased correctly as Al G. Rolan Kraps SASS Regulator Gainesville, Georgia. NRA Range Safety Officer NRA Certified Instructor - Pistol / Personal Protection Inside the Home | |||

I remember watching the Bogart version on tv over 50 years ago. It made me so thirsty. I think I drank water the entire time I was watching. | |||

Cussler's Sahara obviously has nothing to do wiuth the Bogart film. Sadly, it didn't have much to do with his book, either. I have my own style of humor. I call it Snarkasm. | |||

Yeah, kind of like casting Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher. I always pictured Al G as a big burly ex-Navy Chief sort of guy. | |||
