Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Freaktana A Major Disappointment

SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Uriah43 After being kicked out of pilot training, two young men named "Philo Henderson" (Brett Cullen) and "George Bunkle" (Don Most) decide to try their luck at a local stewardess school in the hope of meeting some attractive young ladies. What they don't count on is that this particular school has lowered its standards to such a degree that all of their fellow students are predominantly losers as well. And this creates all kinds of problems for everyone trying to graduate. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this specific movie was essentially a recycled version of "Police Academy" with a few minor tweaks added in order to portray a slightly different setting. There isn't anything really new or original here. Yet having said all of that there are still small bits and pieces of humor here and there that might entertain a viewer on a rainy day. If nothing else it has a few attractive actresses like Mary Cadorette (as "Kelly Johnson"), Judy Landers ("Sugar Dubois") and Julia Montgomery ("Pimmy Polk") to brighten an otherwise lackluster film. Slightly below average.

sol- Assorted misfits train to become flight attendants at a special college and get up to mischief while living on campus in this curious attempt to cross 'Animal House' with 'Airplane!' and 'Police Academy'. Long unavailable on DVD, the film does not have the most positive of reputations, but it does have a small cult following and it easy to see why. The gags that misfire are absolutely groan-inducing (flatulence in an elevator; a zillion pratfalls), but the ones that work are highly memorable - the best of which being the way one very innovative stewardess 'relieves' a stressed-out claustrophobic passenger. Another memorable part involves a prank on the female change rooms gone awry. Juvenile as some of the gags are (a literal salami to hide), the chief pitfall of the film is the lack of well developed characters. The two main male characters do not have much in the way of charm and charisma, while the female characters are barely defined beyond what they were before becoming stewardesses: spoiled rich kid, prostitute, etc. The fact that there are no big name stars in the cast has probably also contributed to the film's descent into obscurity (though Wendie Jo Sperber is great as always). This is, however, a far more decent film than one might expect with some positive and affirming messages about the ability of outcasts and those in the periphery to band together and succeed as a team. It would be an overstatement to describe 'Stewardess School' as an inspirational film, but it is an offbeat testament to the power of teamwork at the very least.

vintagetbird I knew going in that any movie with Vito Scotti, Judy Landers, Sherman Hemsley and Donny Most was going to be a waste of my time. I just happened to be in one of those late night moods that called for a waste-of-time movie. The fact that I knew it was going to be a bad experience and I was still peed off afterward oughta tell you what a pile of refuse this thing is. Just...frickin'....HORRIBLE. And that freeze on Donny Most's mug at the very end is enough to gag you. Those four "actors" should meet at the ATM, withdraw $20 each, buy the perpetual rights to this abomination and then burn every copy in existence.

orangecakemix Campy slapstick spoof with many familiar faces living it up while majoring courses in stewardess school (Does such a school really exist?). Although cheesy, it's become somewhat of a cult classic.Kind of hard to find in video rental stores today but airs frequently on cable TV's Comedy Central station. Most notable for one of Donny Most's rare appearances outside of 'Happy Days'.
