Movie Reviews

Movie Chambers - 8/10 by Paul ChambersBefore there was "Airplane," there was "The Big Bus." The granddaddy of the disaster spoof movies came out in 1976, and despite its unevenness, it's quite the hoot.
Aisle Seat - 8/10 by Mike McGranaghanThe Big Bus can be hit-or-miss in its humor. But the hits are fairly big and the misses are comparatively small.
The Dissolve - 7/10 by Nathan RabinThe Big Bus [is] a consistently clever comedy that had the misfortune of being a couple of years ahead of its time.
Parallax View - 4/10 by Richard T. JamesonI'd like to pretend it's a better movie than it is... its failings aren't gross and its modest pleasures are so far superior to the general run this slummy summer season that I feel very kindly toward it.
User Review - 10/10 by Brenda GSuch a cult 1970s comedy! Had dreadful reviews on release, but now surely you can see that 'Airplane' (also brilliant, but came after this film) merely copied this great movie, with talents such as Stockard Channing and Joseph Bologna (a bit of alright? I'll say) plus loads of other fantastic bit parts. It's just hilarious!
User Review - 10/10 by Eric On His Fantasy Quest VA spoof disaster flick made 4 years before Airplane! and sunk without a trace, despite being equally as funny.
User Review - 10/10 by Bjorn OSuch a cult 1970s comedy! Had dreadful reviews on release, but now surely you can see that 'Airplane' (also brilliant, but came after this film) merely copied this great movie, with talents such as Stockard Channing and Joseph Bologna (a bit of alright? I'll say) plus loads of other fantastic bit parts. It's just hilarious!
User Review - 10/10 by Warren SFar better than Airplane. So many quotable lines. "Watch it, he's got a broken milk carton."
User Review - 10/10 by STCENTERPRISE .This movie is absurd and it is absurdly funny. It has no serious moments and is a spoof that you can really enjoy. Take a chill pill and sit down and enjoy it.
User Review - 10/10 by Jim VIt's just so ridiculous, you have to love it!
