WOW! This film was f*****g funny!
I was really looking forward to seeing this film last night as I am a huge fan of the Airplanes, Hot Shots, Police Squads, Naked Guns and Top Secret. I found this on lovefilm and thought – why have i never heard of this? I haven’t laughed this hard for ages. I admire the filmmakers so much for being so clever and entertaining. The production values are really high as well, everything looks quality and well made. Older films like Airplane etc can look cheap but it adds to their charm, so it was nice to see this modern film which was hardly a blockbuster, made so well and looking like the budget was much higher.Of course not every joke tickled my funny bone, I could have done without the farting, spewing and when Lloyd Bridges get shot up but people think he’s dancing.
But apart from that I found it absolutely hilarious and I can’t wait to see it again. Jay Mohr is so great – if you can, watch Action. It’s a TV series he did, only one series but it’s soooo good! Really funny and totally uncheesy like all American sitcoms feel they have to be. It’s about a Hollywood producer.
Anyway, back to Mafia. The writers have worked so hard, not only on the script but the visual gags, injokes and references. I love spotting a funny poster, or something in the credits. Everyone has put so much effort into making this movie the best and the funniest it could be.
I was stunned by the low rating but hey, different strokes for different folks.
If you are reading the comments, deciding whether or not to rent/buy this movie, I definitely think you should – especially if you are a fan of Airplane,Top Secret, Police Squad, Naked Gun, Police Academy and Hot Shots.
