Description:
Viggo Mortensen stars as Jimmy Kowalski, a Desert Storm veteran with racing in his blood, dark secrets in his past, a pregnant wife at home, and a vintage 1970 Dodge Hemi Challenger to deliver. But when his wife is suddenly hospitalized, a desperate Kowalski speeds cross-country with police from four states, a vengeful trooper [Steve Railsback of HELTER SKELTER and ED GEIN], and the FBI in hot pursuit. Now with the help of an outspoken radio DJ [Jason Priestley], the man a nation hails as ‘the last American hero’ and the Feds label a ‘possible terrorist’ rockets toward a final roadblock where the speed limit is the floorboard, and life, death and freedom all come together at the VANISHING POINT. Christine Elise [ER], Keith David [ARMAGEDDON] and Peta Wilson [LA FEMME NIKITA] co-star in this explosive Fox-TV remake of the legendary cult classic that fans call ‘the ultimate car chase movie’!

Awesome movie. A must see. Usually the remake sucks compared to the orginal. This time just the opposite. I loved the original, but the story was just a little better in the remake.
Rating:  - Please Don't Waste Your Time With This Version
Words cannot describe how badly this version stinks. There is virtually no connection to the original masterpiece. Negative Stars!!!!!! They should be ashamed of themselves for putting the title "Vanishing Point" on this utter piece of garbage.
Rating: - Why re-cut a classic movie?
The 1997 version of Vanishing Point re-edits the original 1971 movie footage to replace an excellent black actor Cleavon Little (R.I.P 1939-1992) with Brett Priestly (Beverly Hills 90210) as Super Soul, note 'Soul' and inserts into the story line a pregnant wife, mobile phones and a heavy metal soundtrack, enough said.
If you watch the original Vanishing Point, remember just like other classic movies its a movie of its time, enjoy...
Rating: - Vanishing Point Revisited
Well, it wasn't as good as the original (they never are).First of all, they completely changed the storyline by making ole Kowalski out to be some sort of domestic terrorist trying to get home to his pregnant wife.If that wasn't bad enough, they totally screwed up the ole man in the desert (lots of beans) and put a bikini on the naked chick on the dirt bike.The only good change was the addition of the Charger police car, though they could have made that part of the chase last longer.Overall, ...
