Airheads (1994)

Load of rubbish!!

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Heavy metal trio The Lone Rangers haven't had much luck getting their songs heard.During their last desperate trip to a radio station they bring along some genuine looking water pistols and spontaneously pull them out when they're turned down again.One of the workers at the station escapes being taken hostage and calls the police, and a long standoff ensues until the Rangers can play their tape, which the lead singer gave to his now ex-girlfriend...Airheads is one of those films you either love or hate. When this movie first came out, I thought it was great and very funny. Nearly twenty years later, it's still funny, but for different reasons.Mantegna is the best thing in this movie, followed by Buscemi. Fraser is Fraser, and you can tell Sandler is just in waiting, and his star deservedly shone two years later. But the thing that makes this film work isn't the situation, nor the three leads, it's the randomness of it all.One minute, Egon and Winson from ghostbusters are there, next we see Lemmy! totally ridiculous, but it works, just.

I just got this movie and I really like this film. I was not expecting this to be much, but as usual, I am wrong. This film is about three guys who are in a band and nobody listens to their music. They decide to break in a radio station and take over the place and people as hostages. The acting is excellent and the chemistry is great. Sandler and Buscemi are hilarious. They are the best part of the film. The script and the basic plot line worked well together. I liked the music for the film. I am not a big fan of this kind of music, but somehow Sandler and the gang just made the music work. I recommend this movie for everybody. I rate this film a 9/10.

this is an exceptionally funny movie, it has great characters in it like Brendon Frasier, Chris Farley, R.i.P., and Adam Sander its just a funny movie. i like the fact that nobody could figure out the the guns the three guys had fake guns. you might think after a while one of the guys might be able to touch the gun and figure out that it isn't a real gun. and another point i would like to make, i cant really picture Bredon Frasier, Adam Sandler, and Steve Buscheme as rock stars. i also cant picture Chris Farley as a cop. he is a great actor and great comedian, but he might be just a little to big for the cop suit he is put in for the movie.

Hi IMDb, The amazon guy said Pip was the bass player, that is Adam Sandler's character and Steve Buscemi, Rex, was the drummer. It is of course the other way around. It pays to stay awake during the movie. Okay, I liked this movie and had it been "R" rated maybe we would have seen Suzzi's (Nina Siemaszko) ta-tas, that would have been shweet! Amy Locane is too skinny. Also, I will watch anything with Steve Buscemi in it. Nice to see Harold Ramis pop up there also. I am 53 but I like the music. The DVD has two videos from the movie, Motorhead and White Zombie. The featurette is idiotic and a waste of time. Lots of up and comers in here and of course the late, "great" Chris Farley. Thanks IMDb and keep up the good work.
