This is the story of highly self-absorbed flight attendant Larry Gaye, a name which is certainly designed for obvious word pun. Most of the comedies are crude uncomfortably sexual innuendo in shameless fashion, the vain larger than life persona doesn't really take off in this regard. The exhausting tired jokes aside, it does deliver several good moments with witty awareness and fourth wall breaking quips, the few nods to Airplane! are also nicely done.
There's not much plot to be had. Larry Gaye is made from bits of choppy drama and aviator humor, both of which present barely adequate material in sporadic manner. The way it presents its humor is relentless, so if one particular scene doesn't work, the excessive effort is wasted and the film can be tedious. Unfortunately, this involves repetitive sensual undertone and the Gaye jokes can be tiresome after a few jabs.
It is when its best when Larry self-deprecates himself in mainly clueless manner or the film mocks on its own silly plot with an ironic seriousness. The tongue in cheek approach works with the help of the diverse actors who are experienced in the genre. Several scenes at latter half fare better as it deal with relatable and light banters instead on forcing the flamboyant aspect too much.
There are a few good chuckles underneath the turbulence of painfully narcissistic jokes and nasty sexual innuendos for a light popcorn flick.

This movie is stupid and the main character is really stupid but oh my gosh there is some really funny stuff in this movie!!
The stupid idiot scenes were worth it for some of the truly hilarious moments.
Patrick Warburton is funny as usual.
There were some great cameos in this movie.
If you're a fan of the movie airplane, there's one really great seeing that I'm not going to spoil.
I was a flight attendant for a few years and that made this film more enjoyable for me.

Adding some characters to fill the required character limit which is so stupid on here so that I can finish up my review lol.

A contrite turd avoid at all cost. If someone gives you free tickets kill them and bury them under the porch and never speak of it again. Honestly there is nothing here to warrant this ever being produced, ever, it makes me plead for more Hollywood reboots...
But seeing as I have to spew out 10 lines of text to submit a review. The story is basicaly barney goes to camp adapted to a gay womanising flight attendant were nothing of value is added and all we learn is how gay the main character is, Henry Winkler stars in this and considering its been 40 years since he was relevant it should be a nice warning to stay the hell away.

This is a great movie to watch if you're not sober. Somewhat reminiscent of early 2000s comedies and Mark Feuerstein shows a his comedic abilities despite mostly not being a comedy actor. I found this movie to be hilarious. Was the plot great? No, it was silly, but in a good way. Here's the best way to put it: if you are the type of person who wants to sit down and watch some serious movie like The Departed or The Martian, you'll hate this, but if you want to sit down and watch something that's the best kind of stupid humor that we all at least somewhat enjoy, you'll enjoy watching this movie. Not all of the jokes are tasteful, but this isn't supposed to be some serious film looking for an Oscar, it was made to be funny and that's exactly what it is, a funny movie that you don't have to pay full attention to to enjoy. Totally worth watching if you want to watch something just to laugh. It's the definition of a late night comedy.
Really funny, caught me off guard. A funny sense of humour. I rewatched it the same day. Its one you can rewatch. They're the good ones.
Critics, schmitics!

- GoofsWhen Larry gives the safety spiel, he says the plane is a 737, but seating configuration indicates it's a wide body.
