STILL the funniest comedy ever made and still holds up after over 25 years! This movie changed so many things about comedy in film. The two starring actors weren't even part of the jokes for over half the film, background voices became hysterical additions to the foreground dialogue, and barrages of purely visual gags would hit the viewer in rapid-fire fashion. This spoof of 70's airport dramas has given birth to The Police Squad series, which ranks right behind Airplane and Airplane 2 as the funniest films ever made. Just sit back, relax and don't worry about engaging your brain too much...revert, not to childhood, but to a period between then and your adult years, and enjoy! It's clever and silly and it makes you laugh. The best comedy ever.
