    Airplane!

    ★★★★

    It's a classic movie filled with jokes and gags anyone will recognize, a testament to how it changed the world of comedy as a whole. Surprised not to see a single "Striker? I hardly know her" joke, though.
    Pacing of the jokes felt a little bit off towards the middle of the movie, but it's completely understandable given the necessity to advance the story doesn't offer as many opportunities for the occasional joke.

    I will also add that it's clearly a dated movie, so some of the jokes might offend the viewer, depending on their boundaries and limits.

    A very entertaining wild story (or set of stories, I should say) with great performances that, as usual for a Tarantino movie, will make you ignore the contrast between the everyday dialogue and the surreal scenes you just watched thirty seconds ago.
    Really liked how it was shot as well, the long camera sequences without cuts were top notch.

    I'm surprised at how I've never seen clips from the Bruce Willis storyline considering how many memes and snippets I've seen…

    This movie proves Robin Williams should have had more opportunities to play non-comedy roles throughout his career, because he absolutely knocks it out of the park. It is a captivating story that will leave you on the edge of your seat throughout the movie

    ★★★★★

    An original movie containing a great metaphor about difference, and building a deep incredible atmosphere with unique characters and great set design, adding to the unsettlingness of it all

    Being completely honest, there's a big chance I'm giving this movie a few extra points for being one of the few in my native language that I loved, but acknowledging this fact will not be enough to deter me from giving it 5 stars.
