The gang that created Airplane and The Naked Gun sets its sights on Top Gun in this often hilarious spoof starring Charlie Sheen, who previously only inspired laughs with his personal life. He plays Topper Harley, a fighter pilot with an ax to grind: clearing the family name. He gets involved in a relationship with Valerie Golino, a woman with an unusually talented stomach. But his mission is to avenge his father. Lloyd Bridges, late in his career, revealed an aptitude for this kind of silliness, here as a commander who is both incredibly dim and delightfully accident prone. Directed by Jim Abrahams, the film makes fun of a variety of other films as well, from Dances with Wolves to The Fabulous Baker Boys. It was so successful that they all returned in the sequel, Hot Shots! Part Deux.

They don't make them like this anymore. Too funny. So great from beginning to end. Mel brooks at his best. Dave Chappelles big break. Cary Elwes is fantastic. Richard Lewis is great.

Released in 1993, "Robin Hood: Men in Tights" spoofs popular Robin Hood flicks, like "The Adventures of Robin Hood" (1938) and "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" (1991). Cary Elwes stars in the titular role while Amy Yasbeck is on hand as Marian with Megan Cavanagh as Broomhilde. Richard Lewis and Roger Rees play the villains, Prince John and the Sheriff of Rottingham respectively, with Tracey Ullman as the hideous witch. Robin's merry men include: Dave Chappelle, Eric Allan Kramer, Mark Blankfield and Matthew Porretta.Elwes has that merry persona necessary for the eponymous role. No matter what danger he encounters he always has that jovial smirk on his face. Meanwhile, Yasbeck is stunning and sumptuous, particularly in the chastity belt scene. While there are a few laugh-out-loud jokes, this is mostly a quietly amusing parody and consistently entertaining. I was never bored. Several actors appear in cameos, like Patrick Stewart & Dick Van Patten. Dom DeLuise does a Brando impersonation at one point.The movie runs 104 minutes and was shot in Valencia & Santa Clarita, California, with studio work done in West Hollywood. DIRECTOR: Mel Brooks. WRITERS: Brooks, JD Shapiro & Evan Chandler.GRADE: B

It's obvious that Mel Brooks' best days were behind him in this costume comedy adventure that seems to be made for 10 year old boys. Sexy Cary Elwes goes back to "The Princess Bride" territory and finds that he's now in a mid evil Saturday morning cartoon. With Norm Lewis as wicked King John and Roger Rees as the evil Sheriff of Rottingham, Elwes has an easy chance of defeating the bad guys. Amy Yasbeck is a rather lame Maid Marian, while Brooks' toilet humor comes to life in Tracey Ullman's hideously crude sorceress, Latrine. Cameos by various familiar faces, including Brooks himself, can't aid this from being anything more than an outrageously dumb and desperate attempt to capture the success of his '70s masterpieces.Novelty musical numbers may have work when done in small doses in Brooks earlier films, but here he obviously was not prepared for writing a full musical score. Who would believe that less than a decade later he would have a smash hit on Broadway by writing the songs for the for the stage version of "The Producers"? This has the comic equivalent of a 20 minute short that appears to have been rushed together. Broadway had better luck in spoofing British history with "Monty Python's Spamalot" and "Something Rotten" where modern cultural references were actually funny and appropriate rather than just randomly placed and really having no effect. One funny line has Elwes indicate that unlike other Robin Hood's (Kevin Costner, anyone?), he can speak with a genuine English accent, and sure enough, he is right. Elwes is charming and as perhaps the only subtle humor that this film has, but repeat of old gags that Brooks is overused just come off as eye rolling and dated. It simply just is not funny. Comedy truly is a very difficult thing to do, and simply by throwing funny people into an allegedly funny script doesn't mean that you're going to end up with a funny movie.
