Secound time around and I can say that the first is by far the best out of both. Same old gags but still not a bad film and didn't fail to make me laugh.

Both Airplane movies are awesome. These are full of dad jokes and hilarious situations that are parodies of other serious movies. I remember watching the first Airplane movie as a kid, back in the 80s. I didn't know the name of the movie until I accidentally came across it a couple of days ago. I'm glad I did. :grin:

With the original creative team gone, Airplane II: The Sequel is a cheap joke that goes nowhere. Essentially it’s the same movie redone with a sci-fi twist; the story follows a space flight that goes out of control while on its way to a lunar colony. The comedy re-does all of the same sight gags and jokes of the first film, only this time they’re forced and contrived. Still, the parodies of Star Wars, Star Trek, 2001: A Space Odyssey, E.T. and other major science-fiction films of the ‘70s and ‘80s provide some good laughs. Airplane II: The Sequel has its moments, but it tries too hard to copy the original and ends up being a mess.

Surprisingly good cast. The gags could be seen coming a mile away - it's like they took the original and did the same jokes in different words. Still funny and enjoyable.

**A sequel that should never have been made because the first film did everything there was to be done.**

After the success of “Airplane”, there was an immediate desire to make a sequel. However, the creators of the first film had serious doubts about this because they felt that they had run More

Well I suppose a sequel was bound to happen after the success of the first film, but sadly this isn't a patch on that. Essentially, this is exactly the same film only we substitute a lunar space shuttle for the aircraft. "Ted" (Robert Hays) has been certified (by "Perry Mason" himself - Raymond Burr More
