Also known as: Flammer over Sahara, Aventuras en el Sahara
Description: Strangely, the film Sahara flopped at the box office. Watched it in the early 90s, often shown on TV. Very, very good movie: while there is action, and adventure, and romance, and love. I would not mind to get hold of a home collection.
However, budget is quite large. Brooke Shields in his youth was very beautiful, even without makeup she is amazing.
Review: Who does not love car racing in the desert , besides such a huge and exhausting in the heat, as the Sahara , but not in our time , and in a romantic 20th , specifically – in 1927, when the brand was considered a supermodel ” Pacari ” ? Who does not adore adventure , full of dangers and unexpected turns of fate , the more that 17 -year-old Dale , a wealthy heiress who died suddenly the state of the automotive empire of King Gordon , impersonating the young man to take part in the rally ? Finally, who would not admire love against the backdrop of Kilimanjaro snow or among the sand dunes , if, in addition to the American passion for ” the pretty child ” ( remember the movie , famed young Brooke Shields ) is experiencing irresistible Arab sheik Jafar , who easily steals the girl ? Even answering all the affirmative , you will not feel deprived of risk as a result of a big disappointment. As they say, obrydaeshsya ! Funny that Shields defeated itself in the dispute over the infamous prize ” Golden Raspberry ” getting it not for women , but for ” the male part of the role ” when it is present on the screen with a mustache . Painting with considerable at the time budget of $ 25 million failed miserably at the box office , collecting only $ 1.4 million

Very like a Disney kind of movie and probably best for youthful audience on a lazy sunday, because it’s totally unconvincing in plot, characters and practically every scene.
Still the camera and landscape and certainly Brooke Shields are of glossy beauty, but honestly the real stars are the classic cars 😉
For a one-time watch not too bad.
