Film 271/365, Day 303/365 – Hot Shots! Part Deux

Lots of fun from a film that doesn’t take itself at all serious.  It’s a good film to watch again and again because they pack as many jokes as possible, the props, the extras, everything has a purpose, they even squeeze them into the credits.  It is a good easy to watch film with enough laughs.

Synopsis:  A team of commandos are sent into Iraq to rescue the team that were sent in to rescue another team.  But when they are caught another team is put together to go in and rescue them.  This time they call on a retired war veteran, Topper Harley, who has found a new life that he is reluctant to give up.

Film 81/365, Day 85/365 – Hot Shots!

Very much in the same style as Airplane!, Hot Shots! does not disappoint.  It is packed full of excellent one liners and endless plays on words and whilst it isn’t anywhere near as good as Airplane! it is still a good way to waste some time.  Don’t forget to check out the credits for even more jokes.

Synopsis: Topper Harley, the son of a disgraced navy pilot, must conquer his issues to ensure that a mission to destroy a nuclear power station in Iraq goes without a hitch.  The problem is there are people already betting against and will make sure that the mission is unsuccessful.
