Hot Shots 2 (1993)

Another great parody featuring the same characters as the first one, and many more. I didn't get as much of a laugh watching this one as I did during the last though. Sure, there are a lot of funny situations depicted in this one, but they just don't seem to affect me anymore. Is it because they're so exaggerated? Is it because there's too many of them? Is it because I've watched this movie twice now? I don't know, but that's the way it is. If you haven't seen the first one, it's a military parody featuring the life of a Soldier, now retired, that comes back into play to take out a deadly threat in the middle east. Great actors, great filming and a good storyline as well, but it just doesn't do the getting-me-to-laugh-crazily job right. If you haven't watched the first one, and you need to chose between that and this, see that one instead.

 rated 3/5: not bad
