Soul Plane

The title tell s you where its heading. A commercial Hollywood producing with the word 'Soul' says its going to be a parody of Black culture an d characteristics done badly and diluted so as to cash in on mainstream. Result, offend everyone in its morals and production.

Racial stereotypes and black/white culture are embraced rather than dispelled. Tom Arnold definitely steals the show as he is an excellent comedy actor. Some of the jokes are forced. Some awkward moments. Dwayne Adway is a bit weak in the leading role needed to stick to being the straight man. Stewardess Sofia Vergara has landed in this film from being pictured on a footballer's arm. And like Francine Dee (who plays the Chinese stripper here)is another one of the models and women that have appeared as portraits by the GB artist and psychic Stephen Armourae. This film tries to be an Airplane spoof. But that in itself was a spoof. Double negatives don't work well. But it has enough laughs to be worth looking at.

For all of you that like the black comedic-type films similar to some of the Wayans Brothers work, then this is the film for you. But if you can't handle or dislike outrageous silliness, which can only make you laugh because it's just...well, too silly (why else would we laugh?), then you might want to pass this one up. Rather simply, I have already summed this film up - outrageous silliness. And it centers around some of the more popular themes like....sex, more sex, sex again, drugs, sex, and.........this is a shocker.....(no, no more sex) manages to throw in, with a semi-effort, profound themes like a father's feelings of losing his daughter, consummate love and immolation, and the definition of true friendship. Intertwined within all of this is humor common to the stereotypical definition of the ghetto and the hood. In other words "phat" rims, cool rides, foxy booty honeys, pimp daddys, gold chains, puffing on the "L", sexual chocolate, and an asuntry of other familiar brandings. Prepare yourself for a crazy flight aboard the Soul Plane. Peace out.

I think the best acting in Soul Plane is the plane itself. It looks like the plane is very nice looking from both the outside and the inside. The plane has more personality than the people in this movie. Every single character in this movie is a stereotype. We have the one white couple. The pilot who is afraid of heights. The stewardeses who are dressed like hookers. The one gay character who looks at everybody. The language is offensive, with repeated use of the offensive N-word that whites cannot use but blacks inexplicably do. Why did this movie need to push for an R rating when it could have gone for a PG or a PG 13 would suffice. I give this movie a 4/10 and that is only for the great looking plane.

This movie wasn't too funny. It wasn't too horrible either. Just a fun ride aboard the Soul Plane. It's a black-owned flight service with a kick-ass disco, beautiful bar, and pumping stewards. The plot takes you through the whole idea of a black (not race or color, but 'style') -owned plane with the same style of black humor. At times, there are some great rare scenes like when the main character uses the 'normal' lavatory in the 'normal' plane. Check that out. There are lulls, however, and I find it most in the character who played the Soul Pilot. Watch to find out who it is. All in all, it's a fun movie. Tom Arnold adds to the fun with his 'cracker' attitude. This is one movie to watch when playing poker, when you're drunk, or just vegging.

I like black comedy and black stand-up comedy.This movie is just plane funny.This movie is for people who know how to laugh.Don't take it serious because it is not.I laughed to my tears thru this movie and I enjoyed it.Please people relax and laugh life is to serious.This was a hilarious movie, and would recommend it to every hip-hop movie fan out there.I think people are taking this movie way too seriously, or they don't know how, when or why to laugh at this specific type of cultural humor, this is very obviously a FUBU movie, but there's no reason for others to bash this movie.This film is one of the best comedies to have come out in the last couple of years.
