Back when spoof movies was smart and funny. Airplane is about a fly crew and many passengers of an airliner fall sick, it's up to an ex-war pilot to land them safely. A spoof of airline disaster movies. The writing in this movie was so clever and so new back then that it still sticks today. The jokes worked so well in this movie because it has a point not like spoof movies today that is people getting hit in the head or sex jokes and all that rubbish.

I've looked at dozens of "Best Comedy Movie Ever" lists on the internet, and this hilarious movie is on almost every one of them. And if it isn't? Then that person must have been in a coma when ranking them. This is THE most quoable comedy of all time - bar none. That's because there are dozens of funny lines in this one. The writing is so good, even former basketball player Kareem Abdul Jabbar is funny ... no small task. The scene that accompanies the song "Stayin Alive" will forever be eteched in your memory. And I've heard people say "And don't call me Shirley" more than I've heard them call my name.

Revolutionising American comedy cinema, Airplane! was the blueprint for every scattershot spoof to follow. The jokes flow so thick and fast that you can't help but be worn down by their sheer quantity but you'll find it impossible to take a disaster movie seriously after seeing this film!

Ferociously funny parody of air disaster flicks. Nielsen stands out with his "Don't call me Shirley." line. Outstanding on all levels.

The key to enjoying this film is to bask in its silliness and bad puns. The endless stream of sight gags and name confusions keep coming and keep this film from feeling stale or boring.

Hilarious jokes and fantastic characters make Airplane a landmark in comedy films.
