Hot Shots! – Die Mutter aller Filme (1991)

Hot Shots! – Die Mutter aller Filme: Directed by Jim Abrahams. With Charlie Sheen, Cary Elwes, Valeria Golino, Lloyd Bridges. A parody of Top Gun (1986) in which a talented but unstable fighter pilot must overcome the ghosts of his father and save a mission sabotaged by greedy weapons manufacturers.

“Hot Shots! (1991) was another solo effort from Z.A.Z. member Jim Abrahams. In keeping with the tone of his other films, the humor is just like that of Airplane! and Top Secret! This time, Jim Abrahams takes on the Top Gun films and others of itu0026#39;s ilk. Charlie Sheen stars whilst Valeria Golino, Cary Elwes, Jon Cryer and Lloyd Bridges co-star. But like itu0026#39;s brethren the humor is real dated and some of the jokes donu0026#39;t work like they used to. But I wouldnu0026#39;t miss watching it again if it was on the idiot box. I wonder what the film would have been like if the Z.A.Z. team worked on it? Followed by Hot Shots! Part Deux.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eRecommended for laughs.”
