Airplane wannabe is half flop, half winner., 13 September 2000
6/10
Author: ktmphd (ktmphd@webtv.net) from Bay City, MI

This is a late arrival in the host of movies that are Airplane wannabes. It is worse than some and better than some, but you cannot fault the writer, as he has few moments go by without some pun, pratfall, double entendre, visual or verbal joke or play on words, some of which are brilliant and some of which redefine the terms juvenile and sophomoric.

The leads, with the exception of Marc Singer, were (and still are) relative unknowns. But in spite of it all, it is a fun and funny film and you'll need to watch it two or more times to catch all the jokes, puns and take offs on other films.

Rent it and enjoy, but don't expect it to be another Airplane or Naked Gun, because it ain't!
