Movie Reviews of Airplane II: The Sequel
Movie Review: "Do you know what it's like to laugh like that?"
Summary: 5 Stars
"Yes, yes I do." The sequel to Airplane! has the same laugh a minute style as the original, which is surprising considering both films were written and directed by different people. The original was written, produced, and directed by Abrahams, Zucker, and Zucker (Naked Gun Films) and this sequel was written and directed by Ken Finkleman (Who's that girl, Grease 2). Any way both films are very funny. The sequel picks up with the same characters. Striker (Hays), now in a mental hopspital (because "he's sick..sick..sick" is still in love with Elaine (Hagerty) and tries to persuade her to help stop the XR2300 lunar launch because he believes the ship is faulty. The shuttle launches anyway and the scenes on board switch to Striker's court case which has to do with his flight "over macho grande" and his saving the Airplane! in the original film. Next the plane starts to "shimmy" and the pilots are knocked out by the ship's computer ROC (Like Hal from 2001). If that's not enough, Sonny Bono has brought a bomb (not a buh, a bomb) and plans to blow everyone up because of his impotence problem. Striker is helped by none other than William Shatner (in a very funny preformance) to land the shuttle. Many funny characters make return appearances, especially Lloyd Bridges as McCroskey. The DVD is the widescreen version which is nice but there are no extras which is disappointing but both Airplane films are must haves regardless."They're launching the XR2300! Do you know what that is Doctor?" "The muffler bracket on a 79' Pinto?" "No that's the XR2200, the XR2300 is the lunar shuttle!"
"Ted Striker." "Do you know him, Sir?" "Never heard of him. That's not exactly true...we were like brothers."
"Sir, these lights keep blinking out of sequence, what should we do?" "Get them to blink in sequence."
"Ted Striker's got more guts in his little finger than most of us do in our large intestine, including the colon!"
