"That's right." As he's sitting there stone-faced with a stethoscope in his ears kills me everytime!

-How soon can you land?
+I can't tell.
-You can tell me, I'm a doctor.
+No, I mean I'm just not sure.
-But can you take a guess?
+Well... not for another two hours.
-.... You can't take a guess for another two hours?


I love this movie.

[terminator]

I like the constant propellersound on a jetplane.

[chrisjohnston]

That entire intact fish skeleton on the Captain's plate always cracks me up.

[braxbro]

The best part is just how straight faced he is throughout the movie

[imcostalong]

For the two dislikes, I just want to tell you both good luck, we’re all counting on you.

[Cardtrik]

Just love the fact that when he pulls Kareem from the seat, he's wearing his Lakers uniform haha

[graboid]

0:24 I love how some random person just hands him a tool

That's what I love about this movie, it's the little things you notice each time

"Relax and enjoy your flight, okay?" as they're dragging the unconscious co-pilots down the aisle. Absolutely priceless scene.

When this film first came out, I had to go and see it again because I was laughing so much, I knew I'd missed a lot of the jokes. And 40 years later, it's still the funniest film I've ever seen (along with one or two others). Genius casting and the script is beyond brilliant. Love it! 😂

"A hospital? What is it?"
"It's a big building with patients. But that's not important right now."

[ripley_hicks_newt_]

"... but at least I have a husband." BRUTAL!

[RC-]

Possibly my greatest memory as a young kid - watching this after getting it from the “video rental shop”! With my mum and dad and all 3 of us in absolute hysterics… RIP Mum… 🙏

A moment to remember forever: Leslie Nielsen leaves his dramatic career to do comedy exclusively

[johngreen]

I saw this in the theater when I was 16 and never laughed so hard in my whole life. This whole movie is gold. My favorite quote: “looks like I picked the wrong week to quit amphetamines”

[nolanrux]

Apparently Christopher Lee turned down the chance to play Dr. Rumack, and said later on it was a "Big Mistake"

[fredmila]

My dad met Leslie Nielsen in an aeroplane. True story.

[GalenNight]

A hospital? What is it?

It’s a big building with patients but that’s not important right now.

I grew up with Leslie Nielsen as a dramatic actor, this movie was a revelation of his comedic talents, same with Peter Graves. Later loved Police Squad!
