The Big Bus (1976)
7/10
my friend loves buses!
19 November 2003
My friend loves buses for some odd reason, and told me that this movie was a great crackup about a huge bus. I judged the cover before i saw it, and still stand by what i thought. The movie i guess was supposed to be a spoof of airplane, which i havent seen yet, but the mode of transportation being funny still remains the same. there were some lame points that couldve been changed or modified to make it better. the old woman was hysterical, she had funny one liners and didnt really have as much as a chance as the other main characters. im sorry to those who like stockard channing, but after i saw grease, all i can picture her as is a 50's bad girl that would smoke after school. her performance i thought was awful, and should have focused more on someone else. i dont know who, perhaps the old woman, who was the only funny one to me. the rest of the crew didnt blend well together. the old woman was the best part of the movie, and along with the non-blendable cast that did have combined laughs that may have lasted about 10-20 minutes of funnies. That affected my rating, because when i watch a funny movie, i would like to laugh so hard i cry and cant breathe at all. when a movie can do that for me, i watch it again and again because i love comedies. this movie only had me at a long lasting chuckle. (B- C+)
