Review of Airplane!

Stupid and Dated, But Still Gives Me th

Airplane was probably the first Big Budget Spoof, and is still a classic. Many of the spoofs are dated, and probably will make no sense to anyone under the age of 40 (Here to Eternity, Coffee Commercial, etc.), and some of it is very politically incorrect, but the movie is still worth a look. The Saturday Night Fever spoof is way too long, I'll admit. But this movie still gives me the giggles each time I see it. From the opening sequence, to the "Don't call me Shirley" lines there are plenty of cheesy laughs. And Leslie Nielsen did steal the movie with his deadpan delivery, which is why his career skyrocketed after this movie.
