Airplane! Ratings & Reviews
- Daniel Gustavsson11 oktober 2024Amazing comedy. Completely hysterical. They don't do it like this anymore!
- qmechan23 januari 2025Oh no! The fish is deleterious! Each viewing leaves me quite delirious. My sides are already sore. Could I laugh even more? Surely, you cannot be serious.
- Shmooflix25 november 2024Masterpiece. A canonical item from the Essential Movies' collection of mankind.
- cultfilmliker6 dgn geleden“…and win just one for the Zipper.” I mean, it’s the best parody film ever. Love how much you can see the ZAZ influence in the Wayans’ parodies. There’s no Scary Movie without this, and I’d be lost without that (only slightly kidding) Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s fake fourth wall break is one of my favorite things in cinema The sound effects in the bar scene are superb in the theater “My orders came through. My squadron ships out tomorrow. We're bombing the storage depots at Daiquiri at 1800 hours. We're coming in from the north, below their radar.“ “When will you be back?” “I can’t tell you that. It’s classified.” A blink and you miss it joke of Stryker having a vulture on his shoulder while he talks to Kramer I’m seeing for the first time! And I know the film pretttttty damn well lol Gonna start tagging every film with a The Wizard of Oz reference, starting with this one Watched at Warren Regal East with my mommy Featured in Slapstick Fantastic
- matvil831 mei 2025A must see movie... I almost forgot how funny the movie was. Hope you enjoy watching it like I did.
- Recordedsnake24 februari 2026Airplane! is a great comedy. Packed with rapid-fire jokes, ridiculous sight gags, and perfectly straight-faced performances especially from Leslie Nielsen, it delivers nonstop laughs from start to finish. Silly, clever, and endlessly quotable, it’s a must watch for comedy fans.
- svei21 februari 2026It’s a little goofy.
- bbecker429 februari 2026I absolutely adore this movie. A true example of a movie we could never get again. Its so cozy to watch, nothings too serious, and its great to know nearly every single thing you see is real, a practical effect. Still quotable nearly 50 years later. You're likely to catch a new line or joke on each rewatch. Perfect runtime.
- Patrick Oyler3 februari 2026All time classic
- edwardsstuff27 januari 2026most jokes are pretty weak. the autopilot was pretty funny. no one watching this for the story. some say the guy in the taxi is still waiting.
- Richard Thornton22 juli 2025Comedy rarely ages as well as this has. Hollywood can’t make a movie like this today to save their life.
- Rui Godoy18 juli 2025Classic humor 🤣
- Yabber24 december 2025I like my Movie how i like my Women, Gay and Manly
- Callum19 december 2025⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – Airplane! — Comedy at 30,000 Feet and Still Climbing I first caught Airplane! back in the ’90s on a battered VHS from my parents’ collection, and it left a mark that’s never really faded. This is comedy with absolutely no restraint — sight gags, wordplay, deadpan delivery, and escalating absurdity stacked so densely that you barely have time to breathe between laughs. Every scene has something going on, often multiple things at once, and half the joy is realising you missed a joke because you were laughing at the previous one. What makes Airplane! so enduring is how little it cares about subtlety. It commits fully to the bit, treats complete nonsense with total sincerity, and trusts the audience to keep up. The cast plays everything straight, which only makes the ridiculousness land harder. It’s parody done with precision — not just mocking disaster films, but understanding them well enough to twist every convention inside out. Even decades later, it still feels sharp. Some jokes are very much of their time, sure, but the sheer volume and creativity mean the film never runs dry. You don’t remember it for a single line or gag so much as the experience — that overwhelming sense of silliness, of being carried along by a film that refuses to slow down or explain itself. Airplane! is pure joy. It’s a reminder that movies don’t always need depth or drama to be great — sometimes they just need to be fearless, funny, and utterly uninterested in taking themselves seriously. 🥤 Pairing: A large fizzy drink with too much ice — light, ridiculous, and guaranteed to leave you grinning long after it’s finished.
