- a comedic film which starrs actors such as Leslie Neilson, Robert Hays, Lloyd Bridges and a few other famous names. It is about a series of unfortunate and yet hilarious events which occur on an airplane after an ex-pilot from the war tries to get over his fear of flying so that he could impress the girl he loves. I wonder if it would be inaccurate to call it dark comedy too since I think the hilarity of the scenes in the movie are actually comic relief from the seriousness of it. These situations involve everything from thunderstorms to food poisoning, absence of a pilot and co-pilot, and loss of one of the engines.
I would recommend this movie to those who like comedy films especially those which usually involve a series of chaotic and dark situations.
