Um þessa kvikmynd

The persons and events in this film are fictitious - fortunately! A masterpiece of off-the-wall comedy, Airplane! features Robert Hays as an ex-fighter pilot forced to take over the controls of an airliner when the flight crew succumbs to food poisoning; Julie Hagerty as his girlfriend/stewardess/co-pilot; and a cast of all-stars including Robert Stack, Lloyd Bridges, Peter Graves, Leslie Nielsen, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar... and more. Their hilarious high jinks spoof airplane disaster flicks, religious zealots, television commercials, romantic love... the list whirls by in rapid succession. And the story races from one moment of zany fun to the next.

Einkunnir og umsagnir

While Airplane is definitely a comedy of it's time and has some problematic jokes such as a pilot's clear "interest" in a young boy; it's still a fun movie with tons of classic comedy lines like "And don't call me Shirley". What's funny is how very little (if any) foul language is used in this film, but it's still loaded with sexual innuendos (which I don't think most young children would pick up on), drug "glue" abuse, and one very abrupt and unnecessary topless scene.

One of my all time favorites. Back when everything wasn't so PC.

I wouldnt recommend. ALL Thumbs DOWN!
