Acerca de esta película

Steve Martin and John Candy star in John Hughes' classic tale of holiday travel gone awry. Neal Page (Martin) is an uptight advertising executive trying to get home to Chicago for Thanksgiving. When his flight is rerouted to Wichita, he reluctantly partners with Del Griffith (Candy), an obnoxious yet loveable salesman. Together, they embark on a cross-country adventure that includes various modes of transportation, hilarious mishaps, and unforgettable rental car shenanigans. Planes, Trains and Automobiles is "a screwball comedy with a heart" (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times). Now with all-new bonus features, the "Those Aren't Pillows!" Edition is a perfect holiday treat that lasts all year.

While PT&A may present itself as a comedy (and most people probably remember it this way); this film is actually more of a dramatic tragedy. Aside from a few funny bits here-and-there, most of this film is Steve Martin having the worst (and undeservingly so) luck imaginable, while not being able to escape the gravity of a perpetual disaster of a homeless, alone, widower (John Candy). It's almost like a Twilight Zone episode minus the comeuppance which makes this film so unsatisfying.

Bought the movie off GamePlay, tried hooking the laptop to tv via hdmi and then I tried to do the stream, and both ways it would start not even get the 1 minute mark and then say "Try Again Later". So the movie is good, the service of which the movie is coming from pretty much sucks. Have a good night.

If you want to start your holiday season with a bang then watch this movie and you will have one more reason to give thanks, happy thanksgiving to you all!
