 | If you've ever been in a band and you've recorded a demo then tried to send it off to major record labels and every attempt failed, then this movie will set your spirits high.
In this epic, 3 bandmates have no career motivation whatsoever except to make it big in the record industry. Their half baked plans to get the record people to listen to their demo tape backfire. What's a band to do now? Why, take a popular station hostage, of course!
Armed with toy guns loaded with pepper sauce, the 3 guys bust into (well sorta) the station and demand that the guy plays the tape. Only one problem. The quarter inch tape player(think old time projectors) just destroyed their copy! The lead singer's ex girlfriend has the other copy, and they have to get her to bring it to the station.
Starring Brendan Frasier and Adam Sandler, this movie will not dissapoint. For anyone who likes movies about garage bands, and people that are in bands, then this movie is for you! This also stars the guy who does Fat Tony's voice on the Simpsons as the radio DJ. |

| I will never understand why Brendan ever decided to take a role in this movie. It positively stinks! His character is so absolutely, irritatingly obnoxious that I almost shut this movie off even before it began. Adam Sandler and Steve Buscemie where equally as appalling.Who ever said that pervesion was funny?
Airheads is what what it name implies. Stupidity at its worst.

| Right now, I am working on getting my own band together. I also happen to be a fan of Adam Sandler, Brendan Fraser, and Steve Buscemi. Sandler, Fraser, and Buscemi are all hilarious, and I have seen a lot of their films. So any musician or any fan of theirs should check out "Airheads", a riotous comedy which makes you wonder how far any musician/band will go to get their music out on the market.
Chester "Chazz" Darvey (Fraser), Rex (Buscemi), and Pip (Sandler) are three friends in a band who live and work in Los Angeles. Rex and Pip are brothers. At the beginning of the movie, we see how far Chazz, Rex, and Pip are going in life. Chazz lives with his girlfriend Kayla in a small apartment and gets kicked out at the beginning of the movie. Rex works at a toy store. Pip has his own pool service. Their band is The Lone Rangers. Recently, they just recorded their first demo, which they have on both a tape and on a cassette, and they are trying to get their demo played on the radio. So one day, Chazz, Rex, and Pip go to a radio station in downtown L.A., and after breaking into the station, they meet a radio disc jockey named Ian. After an argument with both the DJ and the program director, Chazz, Rex, and Pip take the radio station hostage. And once Chazz, Rex, and Pip have the station held hostage, funny, surprising, shocking, and hilarious events occur.
"Airheads" is definitely one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Every single second of this movie is funny, and all of the actors give great performances. My favorite character would have to be Pip, becuase he is the stupid one out of the gang, and while he is nice to the hostages (at one part of this movie, Rex has to take him in private and train him a little bit so he will appear as tough) out of all the dumb decisions made by characters during this movie, he makes the dumbest decision (wait till you see what that is). So check out "Airheads". You'll die of laughter. |

| What can I say about this film? Not too much because the plot for this film is rather simplistic and predictable to boot. The movie features an all star cast of Adam Sandler, Brendon Frasier, Chris Farley, and many others. The movie is about this struggling rock band that holds up a radio station until they agree to play their album on the air. I admit the movie does have its moments where you'll be laughing, but it doesn't work too well for this film. Overall, it's a good rental to watch with your friends, but I wouldn't expect too much out of it. |

| I really enjoyed the review written about Airheads which happens to be one of my favorite movies. But I just wanted to clear something up. In the review it says Sandler (Pip) is the Lone Rangers' bassist and Buscemi (Rex) is the drummer. It's the other way around. Rex plays bass and Pip plays drums. I dunno if someone else already noticed this but I just wanted to point it out anyways. |
