There are some funny things in here, but it mostly made me sad. If this was a better movie, some of the material would have really been great...

tries to do too much and fails

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 17, 2016

Raunchy comedy for adults only.

Soul Plane is like seeing an uncomfortably unfunny stand-up comedy routine acted out and stretched to a feature-length film.

| Original Score: .5/4 | Sep 29, 2006

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 6, 2005

Those expecting an African-American Airplane! will be disappointed. This movie isn't even as subtle as that.

Surprisingly enough (in fact, I am shocked), this film gets a lot of laughs.

| Original Score: B- | Jun 26, 2005

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 2, 2005

...it's hard not to be offended by a sequence in which an Arab man boards the airplane - much to the shock and horror of everyone around him.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Oct 31, 2004

How best to explain a film this mean-spirited, this unfunny--this dispiriting?

| Original Score: 0/4 | Sep 28, 2004

A s*ing style of humour that might have seemed funny in theory, but virtually nothing sparks on screen.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Sep 19, 2004

Nothing more than racial stereotype after racial stereotype.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 17, 2004

| Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 28, 2004

Come back the Wayans Brothers, all is forgiven. Even Scary Movie 2.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 19, 2004

Cries out for the guiding hand of one of the Zucker Brothers or, even better, a genuine satirist like John Ridley, who wrote the subversive Undercover Brother.

| Aug 8, 2004

The Airplane! formula gets reworked as a raunchy sendup of black racial stereotypes, but the movie has an aura of bad sketch comedy.

Full Review | Jun 16, 2004

Uneven, but often very funny.... When it spoofs black culture, the movie connects solidly.

| Original Score: B- | Jun 12, 2004
