Average user review:| Every thing you ever wanted to know about air travel |
Airplane has a great cast including Robert Stack (playing himself), Lloyd Bridges (glub glub), and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (just as defensive as ever).
This movie is unique. It is the first; I have seen displaying one liners with serious intent. It was not just slapstick or Abbot and Costello. This particular film uses the "Airport" movies as the basis of most of its humor.
It worked well enough for sequels and other films to be made in the new genre. I keep it with the Leslie Nielsen Collection.
