Review of Top Secret! (1984) by Gordie J — 11 Feb 2008
One of the funniest movies of all time, and I'm not exaggerating in any way. Some of it is a bit dated, but this is one of the true great spoof movies. This genre gets a bad rep nowadays, thanks to the likes of Epic Movie and Date Movie.
And watching this, those movies look even worse. There's not a single scene that is free of a hilarious quote or sight gag. And once again it shows just how much PG rated movies could get away with in the early 80s, as there are even a number of gags that by today's standards, wouldn't even make it into a PG-13 movie.
It's from the same team that made Airplane, and to be perfectly honest I think this one is even funnier.
