Funniest. Movie. Ever. And that's saying a lot considering that it was made 25 years ago. If you don't know, here's the synopsis: After a flight crew succumbs to food poisoning, the only person capable of flying the plane is an ex-fighter pilot who hasn't been on a plane in years. Hilarious hijinks ensue as he tries to get the plane down on the ground. And I'm serious. And don't call me Shirley. |

The movie's freaking gold. I'm just pissed I can't find it. A month or so ago, I saw it at Wal-Mart for real cheap. I didn't have money at the time and didn't think about it again till just recently. It's not there, only the sequel is. What a drag... I managed to pick up Top Secret!, The Naked Gun, Hot Shots!, and Hot Shots! Part Deux for real cheap, though. (Same with Shriek If You Know What I Did Last Friday the 13th, which is a hilarious horror spoof movie with humor along the lines of the movies mentioned above. At one point in the movie, they're trying to decide on a movie to watch, and even mention Hot Shots!, Airplane!, and The Naked Gun.) I recently got BASEketball as well... I was expecting this movie to be real funny, but I didn't laugh much. I thought that Trey Parker and Matt Stone plus David Zucker would equal a hilarious movie, but it didn't, 'cos it was approached all wrong (I'm sure it's 'cos of the two nobody screenwriters). It shoulda been written by Parker, Stone, and Zucker... Probably woulda been funny that way. (edited by Abnormal Freak on 07-22-05 09:47 PM) |

I watched it about a few years ago when it came out on TV. When I mean a few years, that's like 3 or 4 years ago. The first time I saw it, man I couldn't stop laughing because it was just funny. | |||

Luigi-san, do you like movies about gladiators? Wish I'd seen the first Airplane! in the cheap bin, but at least I grabbed the sequel, BASEketball, and the entire Naked Gun trilogy. How does Top Secret! stack up to them? And don't forget Striker's drinking problem. On BASEketball: I'm just miffed they took out the Steve Perry montage during the fateful season. EDIT: In the name of stealing every other funny line in the movie: Joey: Wait a minute. I know you. You're Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. You play basketball for the Los Angeles Lakers. Roger Murdock: I'm sorry son, but you must have me confused with someone else. My name is Roger Murdock. I'm the co-pilot. Joey: You are Kareem. I've seen you play. My dad's got season tickets. Roger Murdock: I think you should go back to your seat now Joey. Right Clarence? Captain Oveur: Nahhhhhh, he's not bothering anyone, let him stay here. Roger Murdock: But just remember, my name is ROGER MURDOCK. I'm an airline pilot. Joey: I think you're the greatest, but my dad says you don't work hard enough on defense. And he says that lots of times, you don't even run down court. And that you don't really try... except during the playoffs. Roger Murdock: The hell I don't. LISTEN KID. I've been hearing that crap ever since I was at UCLA. I'm out there busting my buns every night. Tell your old man to drag Walton and Lanier up and down the court for 48 minutes.

Ive seen Airplane about 40 times and im more than willing to see it again. I love the clever humour: (May be horribly misquoted, im just looking to get a point across) "Mrs we're going to need to get him to a hospital" "What!?...A hospital?" "It's big white building where patients go, but thats not important right now" I saw about 15 minutes of Hot Shots part Deux on TV, for some reason I wanted to see the rest, but I could never find the movie anywhere.

This movie was hilarious the first time. Funny the next few times. Mediocre after that, and now it's just lame. I've seen it far too many times for the humor to be worth laughing over, which sort of sucks. Or maybe my sense of humor altogether has changed.. but now, sitting down to watch this movie is just a big waste of time. | |||

I saw half of this movie once. I thought it was ok, but my brother has seen it a million times and thinks it is hilarious. I didn't that it was THAT great. But it was good. | |||

Top Secret! has its moments of total funniness. The hilarious parts seemed few and far between, however, so I wouldn't put it on the same level as The Naked Gun, Hot Shots!, and Airplane! (although I haven't seen Airplane! in sooooo many years, I can't really say where I'd rank it). I'll have to watch it again, though, to see if my opinion changes any. It's worth $5.50 for the funny sections--parts of the movie that stuck in my head after my first time seeing the movie, when I was in the 3rd grade or so. I saw those parts and thought, "No way! I've seen this!" Memorable moments. |
