If you loved Hot Shots! Part Deux, try Hot Shots!
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. 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 Jim Abrahams, and they both carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Action / Comedy / War territory. If that's the register that drew you to Hot Shots! Part Deux, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
playful
What Hot Shots! is
Desert airbase, afterburners roaring, a fighter jet screams down the runway. A maverick pilot clashes with authority, a love interest walks into frame, a conspiracy unfolds. Jim Abrahams applies his signature absurdity.
