Movie Reviews of Airplane II: The Sequel
Movie Review: But They're Not On an Airplane!
Summary: 2 Stars
I was extremely disappointed with Airplane II: The Sequel. The first one was great, and I'd watch it over and over again. But since I've seen the sequel, it hasn't been as funny. The sequel's pretty unoriginal and the replayed humor detracts from its predessor it's the same love story, and a smattering of redone scenes. (Rember the old woman who hung herself?) I wouldn't buy this one. In fact, I wouldn't even spend the money to rent it on DVD; save yourself a few bucks, rent it on VHS.Movie Review: Missing so many scenes!!
Summary: 2 Stars
Okay, we all know this isn't the best sequel out there but it has its moments. However I find it SHAMEFUL that this version is missing many scenes that are shown on TV. (Simon in escape pod, Sonny Bono's reason for being on the flight, The Sarge explaining potential bomb damage, Striker reading 'Modern Electronics', the list goes on!) Why leave out scenes on a DVD is beyond me.Movie Review: Airplane2

Very dissapointed, but then sequels are very seldom better than the origional. I can highly recommend the origional, one of the funniest flying movies ever

Movie Review: Airplane2
Summary: 2 Stars
This movie is not what I expected. All they did was copy the same jokes from Airplane!. I think that Abraham Zucker&Zucker could have done it better.Movie Review: Shameful failed attempt at duplicating a classic
Summary: 1 Stars
Are you easily amused by recycled jokes that aren't up to par? If so buy this movie. If you demand quality then watch only the original Airplane. Instead of fresh new comedy this sequel attempts to RECYCLE old jokes from the original. Examples: More decaff coffee jokes, tossing cigarettes that blow up in the background, the scene where everyone lines up to slap sense into the woman who is having a breakdown. Who wrote this [stuff] script? A check of the credits reveals that apparently the original authors of the original Airplane (Abrahams, David and Jerry Zucker) may not have even contributed to this film. Paramount should be ashamed of this. The lowest low is when an attempt is made to recycle the infamous opening of Airplane, when the recorded voices are heard arguing over "the red zone is for loading and unloading..." This occurs at 32:20 into the film if you must see a bad, awful attempt to recycle a joke.
The original "Airplane" is a slapstick comedy classic. This sequel is a classic example of why hastily slapped together sequels rarely work.
