Like the Blue Lagoon, Airplane was also made in 1980.
This film is a big parody about all the the great movies that were made till then.
Ted Striker (Robert Hays) is a young man who's chasing his girlfriend,Elaine (Julie Hagerty)
in order to heal their dieing relationship.
Ted decides to get on the airplane to Chicago,where Elaine works on as a stewerdess.
At the beggining everything seems to be okay but then,all the passangers that ate fish for
dinner started to feel bad. that included the three pilots.
After the airplane almost crashed for 3 times,Ted,who was a pilot in the army,decides to try and
fly the airplane by himself.
With the help of the crew in Chicago,Ted succeeds on landing the airplane.
After this flight,in which Ted and Elaine worked together and remembered all their good times,
they decide to get back together.(offcourse)
Since my father is a pilot,I liked watching this movie. Every time I watched it,I discovered something else that I didn't see before. I've watched it with my friends and family and everybody liked it and thought it was funny.
