Accents Anyone?, 10 November 2005
2/10
Author: adamgibson2 from United States

This movie gets some good laughs for the hilarious accents and the airplane chase scene. The scene involves two toy planes suspended over scenery drawn on a conveyor belt. The belt moves below the planes as they wiggle from side to side on their wires. The escaping pilot then deliberately crashes his plane into a tree and everyone walks away. Looks like they spent all of their special effects money on accent coaches and Hedy Lamar. It gets even funnier after the Border Patrol agents go after the "aliens" to save the from crocodiles and water moccasins in the "jungle" of Florida. Castro must have watched this movie before he decided to throw the Yanks out.
