Hot Shots!	comment	In a Worldâ€¦ full of serious action movies, filled with huge explosions, improbably hot women, and angsty, tortured heroes with tragic backgrounds, one man stood up against the status quo and said, "No more! We don't have to sit here and endure the same plot over and over again! We deserve something more! Something better!" And he took the same plot we had seen over and over again, and made us see it yet again, only this time, it was different... it was funny. It was... Hot Shots!That man... was Jim Abrahams. And he is insane.As one-third of the team that forever spoiled the airline disaster movie with Airplane!, Abrahams takes the fighter pilot action movie and turns it into something a couple degrees off center, just enough to catch us off-guard. At first blush, it appears to be a serious action movie, but then the whole thing spirals off into chaos.Charlie Sheen stars as Topper Harley, an ex-Navyman who left the armed services to live with the Native Americans after the tragic death of his father. He is called back into service by Admiral Benson (Lloyd Bridges) to help save a mission that is being sabotaged by a greedy weapons manufacturer. In the meantime, he must locate Saddam Hussein's cache of nukes and, more importantly, win the heart of his therapist, Ramada Thompson (Valeria Golino), away from a rival pilot, Kent Gregory (Cary Elwes).Hot Shots! was followed by a sequel, Hot Shots! Part Deux.

He replies that he thought he saw Elvis. Just before the ending credits when characters who died during the film are shown, Elvis is one of them.

Hot Shots! / int_7c1207c1	comment	Weapons Understudies: The Oscar EW-5894 Fallus Tactical Fighter Bomber flown by the protagonists is really a Folland Gnat, a British jet trainer (except in one case where it is a HAL Ajeet, a minor Indian Air Force fighter derived from the Gnat). The Iraqi Air Force jets are repainted Northrop T-38 Talon jet trainers, except for one which is the T-38's sister design the F-5 Tiger II (the same plane that played the MiG-28 in Top Gun).

Hot Shots! / int_f5a6baa5	comment	Assurance Backfire: Washout gets a different career as radar operator, assuring Kent that "I'll be your eyes on the ground!" He is suffering from wall-eye vision and can barely see. Kent's facial reaction says it all!

Hot Shots! / int_f7e540ee	comment	Ow, My Body Part!: When Kent meets Ramada at the bar, he picks her up and spins her around. Her handbag hits a waitress, causing a seeming chain of collisions leading to somebody yelling, "Ow, my eye!" The above mentioned fight between Kent and Topper.

Hot Shots! / int_f9f2c33	comment	Running Gag: The catalogue of Tug Benson's increasingly outlandish war wounds. Other running gags include fighter jets being used like cars, people falling off an aircraft carrier's flight deck, and other people accidentally sitting on the chihuahua (five times, and always the same dog).

Hot Shots! / int_fdb355db	type	Fun with Subtitles
Hot Shots! / int_fdb355db	comment	Fun with Subtitles: The faux Native language is rife with these. When Topper tells his chief that he met a beautiful woman, but "she threw [him] a curve," the spoken word is "Hershiser". When the subtitles say the characters are saying the word "English", the word they're actually saying is "Americanese". "Batteries" apparently translates to "Latoya Tito Jermaine."
