See the films the platforms disagree about most →A highly unstable but gifted pilot is recruited for a top-secret military mission. His personal vendetta against a rival officer and his romantic entanglements complicate his already chaotic life. The mission preparation becomes a series of absurd and hilarious mishaps, parodying the intense, dramatic tropes of aerial combat films through slapstick comedy and relentless satire.
