Hot Shots: Part Deux (1993)
This movie was awesome. Simultaneously, nothing about this movie was worthwhile or remotely close to being acceptable. Hence, I loved it. Here is the plot: (watch Rambo III). This movie seemed to be on the same wave length as "Airplane" and "The Naked Gun". Those were also completely stupid and amazing. The theory seems to be to just throw as many jokes on the screen as can conceivably fit into a feature presentation and see how many connect with the audience. if the answer is above 30%, you have just made a classic. Jokes that I liked: Charlie Sheen (He was so ripped in the movie it defied reason.); when Lloyd bridges destroys Saddam and his dog by freezing them with a fire extinguisher only to have them come back together ala "Terminator II" into a new hybrid dog/Saddam. This movie also proves to me that I will basically watch anything with Lloyd Bridges in it. Final description: four words: over the top stupidity.
Ratings
Snobs: Skip it
Saddam: Skip it
People looking for Leslie Nielsen: Skip it
Frat brothers: See it again
Can't be bothered to get off the couch: Let it play
On a scale of "Willow" to "Wall Street", I give Hot Shots: Part Deux 2.3 out of 5 stars.
