Hot Shots!: Part Deux

Both the first and this movie are true American classics. It's good enough to watch alone but more fun with others. Its so stupid at times its funny. We need more actually silly fun movies like this.

Hilarious!

Hot Shots: Part Deux! is an amazing rarity---a sequel that's actually superior to the first movie. (Not that Hot Shots! was bad; it was quite funny and enjoyable in its own right.) Like the second Star Trek film, this sequel gels all of the good elements from its predecessor and discards whatever didn't quite click. In this case, the supporting cast made the movie even more than Charlie Sheen as its troubled hero Topper Harley. Returning are the late great Lloyd Bridges, this time as the president, and Valeria Golino as the lovely Ramada. Joining Topper are his former CO (Richard Crenna), a no-nonsense tough-guy soldier (Miguel Ferrer), a cool blonde CIA operative (Brenda Bakke) and Ramada's hapless yet scornful spouse (the wretchedly hilarious Rowan Atkinson).Abandoned for no apparent reason by Ramada, Topper seeks inner peace at an Asian monastery, kicking the crap out of whoever steps into the fighting arena with him. His former CO finds him and asks Harley to go on a mission to find the men who went to find the men who were sent to find the men---you get the idea. In a filmed spoof of both other films (Rambo, Terminator II) and real-life events (President George the elder Bush's unfortunate vomiting into the lap of a Japanese official), Hot Shots Deux is funny, fresh and at times even more insane than a Leslie Neilsen movie, without the tendency to bog down that usually plagues this type of sight comedy.Sheen, of course, deserves plenty of credit for the movie's success, for he breathes life into the potentially cardboard lead role. Crenna does an excellent if off-the-wall reprise of his colonel character from Rambo. Bridges is sickeningly funny as the semi-lunatic president who's had more parts replaced than a '71 Volkswagen and may be a couple cards shy of a full deck. Gorgeous Golino and beautiful Bakke duke it out---literally, in an homage to American Gladiator. Ferrer, not known for comedic parts, is deadpan, Joe-Friday hilarious as the hard-bitten Harbinger, especially when he goes to pieces during a battle. Atkinson is acerbic and despicable as Ramada's self-absorbed and undeserving husband. Toss into this mix a dead ringer for Saddam Hussein (with a lisp!), and the result is one crazy ride, almost as insane as the one Topper endures with the CIA blonde on a squeaky bed. Some of the humor is risque but nothing is flat-out offensive; it's not a movie for young children, but teens and adults alike should enjoy it very much.In summary, this is that rare sequel that stepped well beyond the confines of its previous version, and was much funnier. Highly recommended for an hour and twenty-eight minutes of viewing pleasure.

If you like parodies you should like this. Sometimes it's a little over the top but that's what makes it fun.

I watched this comedy movie recently, and it was an absolute riot! The humor was spot-on, and I found myself laughing out loud throughout the entire film. The cast delivered brilliant performances, and the witty script had me entertained from start to finish. It's the perfect feel-good movie to brighten your day. I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a good laugh. Five stars for sure!

All time classic slap stick

I love Charlie Sheen and was happy that I could stream it on Amazon. I found it funny from the beginning to the end. Its slapstick , but its funny

It is ok

Good price good seller

Avevo il dvd volevo il Blu-Ray e qui e’ presente la traccia italiana che per noi che lo guardavamo negli anni 90 fa la differenza

Peculiar one.. Abruptly stops and reminds for an update!! Pathetic way of compelling.. Spoils all the viewing pleasure.. 3 stars for Picture and Sound quality.. The movie definetely deserves move than this.. Anyway

On a par with Naked Gun 1 and 2 this is a hilarious spoof(mainly of rambo 3) which sees Charlie Sheen at his best and even finds the perfect part for the guy from "Whose line is it anyway" as the slightly crazy demolitions expert, with a small appearance from Rowan Atkinson. I have seen this film on TV, video and DVD many times and cant even recall the scene referred to by the previous reviewer. Even if that was in the original and had been cut it could never warrant a 1 star review. They could remove half the scenes and it would still be a 5 star film so disregard that, buy it and enjoy.

very funny + worth the money
