Parody of airplane disaster films in which a former pilot gets his nerve back when he has to land a plane on which everyone has food poisoning.

Surely you have seen this movie.

Surely you've seen this movie many times, so why buy another DVD? Unlike other movies that include deleted scenes and interviews as a separate part of the DVD. DCMS includes these features as part of the movie, while your watching a part of the movie, suddenly everything will stop and you will be flung into a deleted scene or interview. Surely, if this is the first time you have seen the movie it would be distracting, but if your like most of us (who have watched the movie many times), surely it creates a whole new experience. Think you know all the gags in Airplane, think again, the directors will point all of them out to you, I was surely shocked by how much I missed.

Airplane! DVD

Such a classic! If you like slapstick, physical humor that makes fun of a whole genre, you can't be without this film. It redefined Leslie Nielsen's career and essential birthed the genre of mockery film-making. It's rather adult but once my son was 17 I just had to share it. It's a bit dated (it helps to have lived through the 70's to get some of th jokes) but it's still a riot.

After all of these years, still the funniest movie I've ever seen

The title says it all - saw it when originally released - laughed my head off in the theater - even though I was aware of how completely stupid it was. Have watched it many times since and found it funny every time. Bought this just to be sure that the above was still true and yes it is..."Ham on white, hold the Mayo."

The Complete Airplane! Saga Finally Gets Released Together In The USA!

(I should note that this is NOT necessarily a review of the version of Airplane! on this Amazon page. This release [currently unavailable here, sold exclusively at WalMart] and review should give you a heads-up on a possible alternative purchase of these comedy classics. A picture of it's cover is in the Customer Images located on the top left of this page)

This box-set that was released May of '08 could have been alot cooler. This is the first time (at least for Region 1) BOTH Airplane! movies have been released as one product in ONE case as far as I know. However, instead of 2-for-1 sets like Paramount's "Wayne's World" & "Chris Farley" groupings, that were two movies put on one DVD-9 (dual layer-single sided/one movie per layer), all they did with this one was put the original 2000 discs in one dual spindle keepcase with a new cover/slipcase. And it does NOT contain the extras-filled "Don't Call Me Shirley!" edition of the first movie either, just the original bare-bones first release. Extras here are just the original commentary track & trailer for the first film, "Sequel" is nothing but movie. I was hoping for a better presentation, but I bought it mainly for owning Part Two (as I already own the "Shirley" edition). As for picture/audio, it's what you'd expect from an eight year old digital transfer, not as good as "Shirley"'s. So I guess if you don't have any version of Airplane!, this set under $10 is nice & quick, but look for the "Shirley" edition first for an outstanding copy of the original classic.
(RedSabbath Rating:7.5/10)
