If memory serves, this 1980 disaster-film satire delivers about 10 laughs a minute—at least it did when I saw it upon its release when I was 18. Multiply that by 87 and you have an abdominal workout. You don’t need to know the source of Airplane!’s parodistic riffs—1957’s Zero Hour!—to ROFL at its ceaseless stream of puns, visual gags, slapstick shtick, and grossly inappropriate innuendos and scenarios that make the Three Stooges look like the height of decorum. If you don’t like one comedic gambit, wait five seconds and another humorous thing will tweak your funny bone. It’s quite the tour de farce. by Dave Segal
