If you loved Airplane!, try Top Secret!
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Top Secret! has roughly 3.6× fewer votes than Airplane! — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by David Zucker, Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and they sit in Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Airplane!, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Top Secret! is
The Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker team takes aim at WWII spy movies, Elvis musicals, and sundry other targets. When American rock star Nick Rivers plays a festival in East Germany, he falls for a woman involved in the local resistance. It's as dumb as you remember, maybe dumber.
