Synopsis: Airplane! (1980)

The spoof comedy that set the gold standard for all that followed it, AIRPLANE takes shots at the slew of disaster movies that peppered cinemas in the 70s. When the passengers and crew of a jet are incapacitated due to food poisoning, a rogue pilot (who has a drinking problem and is afraid of flying) must cooperate with his ex-girlfriend turned stewardess to bring the plane to a safe landing. No disaster flick cliche is left unroasted, and the musical score itself takes a less than reverent look at overly melodramatic compositions.

    Pros: Hilarious, Classic

    Cons: Dated, Sometimes too sophomoric

    Airplane is a classic farcical disaster comedy. This is a simple movie that is easy to watch, and filled with a mad string of comedic situations. There is a ton of word-play, sight gags, bathroom humor, and satire. While it's not exactly an art m...ovie in the sense of "Mulholland Drive" or "Amelie", it has a beauty and perfection of it's own. If you've never seen it, you'll recognize any number of lines, and will surely enjoy your time. Read more Less
