    Airplane isn't just the greatest comedies ever made, airplane is a comedy that dosen't follow cliches, dumb stupid fart jokes or any other themes that other comedy films present. I enjoyed this movie very much and iam very likely that i will see this movie more than a hunderd times because upon the first viewing this movie is hysterical, funny, hailrious and plays with the genre a little bit, don't get me wrong this is a spoof of other worldy disaster movies that dosen't tell any fart jokes or any immature every five seconds, Aiprlane tells the jokes and slapjacks by visuals and tells that really well and presented like in planes unaturtal events will happen on planes no matter how big or tragic it's still only a motion picture. The movie follows traumatized vitenam hero Ted Striker (Robert Hays), after suffering from the deep and horrible days of world war 1 and dealing with a rocky relationship with Elaine Dickinson (Julie Hagerty) who just wants to live her life without Ted because Ted is never actually never with her alot and Elaine wants to get away from Ted in order to start a new fresh life in Chicago. Ted dosen't agree with her going to Chicago so he take his own personal matters into his own hands and trying to get back Elaine, suddenly the plane's passengers gets poisoned from the raw fish which sets two co-pliots dead, so it takes Ted from depression and misery into driving the plane to save the sick passengers to safety. Airplane is thrilly entertaining, hailrious and treats the spoof genre right without making immature jokes every five seconds it's that 50's color style movies that have slapjack comedy in them and this movie succeds at being a entertaining laugh-out loud comedy that supports any type of character that are presented in the movie. I highly recommend Airplane! it's a movie with a lot of hailrious momments and flaws that are not bad for a slapjack movie and this movie is definitley for you.

    This is the best movie ever in the history of humanity! I wish they would make movies like this now - just something hilarious, entertaining, interesting, etc. without being politically correct or any other hogwash of that sort.

    If this movie was made today, this scene would’ve guaranteed an R rating! Do not watch if you’re under 17 years old!

    One of the most quotable movies of all time. If my flights were this interesting I wouldn’t mind the long TSA lines, crowded planes and cramped seat! Lol..

    For an adult the movie is funny but it definitely wouldn’t fly under current PG standards. Considering they show full breasts it would probably be considered R by today’s standards.

    What else can I say? If you don't like this movie you are mentally deficient. To the guy who suggested Elaine was smoking a joint in that cockpit; I suggest you put down your pipe. Not everyone that smokes something, smokes weed. Also, the joke is you smoke a cigarette after sex, not weed. This scene was right after she had to re inflate the Auto-Pilot with the manual inflate tube located just below the belt line. If you watch the scene again, it wouldn't make sense if it was anything but a cigarette.
  • Very bad movie!

    This is not a PG Movie. Double meaning jokes and some nudity. We did not finish to watch it. Very bad movie.
