Comment
The crew and passengers of a plane are struck down with an illness and an ex-fighter pilot who has had a breakdown has to land the plane. Basically a series of slapstick and visual jokes. Very funny or silly depending on if you like this sort of humour.
Contains one of the best one line jokes in films : "Surely you can't be serious?" "I am serious - and don't call me Shirley."
