Even the visuals in the film were great. Like when the "Jim never vomits at home" woman was screaming and panicking. The doctor slaps her face. Then you see a whole bunch of passengers lined up with different weapons. LOL! When is saw the old lady with the gun I almost passed out laughing.
Regarding this ad though, I have to wonder how much is "over the top?" How can this ad be any more offensive than Demo ads that are practically comparing Republicans to child molestors??
When Swift wrote "A Modest Proposal" his "over the top" prose had the desired intention -- shining light on a very serious issue. I think this ad is just brilliant and accomplishes the same task -- shining light on the very serious issue of national security.
The film is a masterpiece. When they are all in line beating up the hysterical woman, Leslie Nielson's character smacks her and you hear a stewardess say "Doctor you are wanted on the phone" and he gives her another one for the road!!
