Airplane! Movie Review

Airplane! is a 1980 comedy that takes off in all the right ways!

This movie is about a group of people on an airplane that are all dealing with different situations, as hijinks ensue.
This movie is really really funny and one that I would strongly recommend watching. There are a ton of run on jokes in this flick, and they all land perfectly.
The actors in this film seemed like they really enjoyed themselves while they were making this. I can't think of a single bad performance in this entire movie. The Captain of the plane (Peter Graves) is probably one of the funniest characters alongside Ted Striker (Robert Hays) in this entire movie.
I can't really think of any problems with this film and that's a good thing in my book. Yet, there is always room for improvement, but this movie doesn't have much to improve upon. The only thing I could think of that might be considered a negative against it, is that it can feel a little long at times.
If you love comedies, then Airplane! is a must see film. It's just one of those classics that are worth seeing at least once in your life! So, you should go and take off, and see this film.

final score: 3.7/5

This was the second attempt to see this film as the first time, someone booked the entire theater for a private screening. I'm going to take from a summary from IMDB to summarize the plot: " As a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults) Ruby is the only hearing person in her deaf family. When the family's fishing business is threatened, Ruby finds herself torn between pursuing her passion at Berklee College of Music and her fear of abandoning her parents." The acting was phenomenal, the cinematography was beautiful, and the story was human. The way this film is crafted is nothing short but excellent. I will not that not everything is 100% accurate, but for narrative reasons, I understand the choices they made. The actors have amazing chemistry together. Everything feels natural between them and they all bring their characters to life. No per...
