Airplane and Naked Gun co-creator Jim Abrahams follows his own formulas, piling bad joke upon bad joke in this spoof of the Rambo film series and the Desert Storm operation.

It is inane (of course) but that seems to be the point. Rarely has a genre of film depended so entirely on the mood of the audience. If someone starts laughing you probably won't stop, but if you don't start don't blame me.
