From director
Jim Abrahams, one of the minds behind the
Airplane! and
Naked Gun films, comes another
parody. This time around,
Abrahams has his sights set on the
action-
adventure genre, specifically
Top Gun.
Charlie Sheen stars as
Topper Harley, a maverick air force pilot who constantly lives in the shadow of his father's legacy. Unable to handle the pressure,
Harley has left the Air Force to live among a tribe of Native Americans. But when the United States seeks to destroy some Iraqi nuclear facilities, there's only one man for the job. After being coaxed back into service,
Harley soon realizes that in addition to
Saddam Hussein, he'll have to contend with a rival pilot, played by
Cary Elwes, and a devious aerospace executive. Among the many films lampooned are
Dances With Wolves,
9 1/2 Weeks,
The Fabulous Baker Boys, and
Gone With the Wind.
