Overview

Were it not for its profanity-laden opening scenes, John Hughes' Planes, Trains and Automobiles might have been suitable family entertainment: certainly it's heaps less violent and mean-spirited than Hughes' Home Alone. En route to Chicago to spend Thanksgiving with his family, easily annoyed businessman Neal Page Steve Martin finds his first-class plane ticket has been demoted to coach, and he must share his flight with obnoxious salesman Del Griffith John Candy.

Overview

Were it not for its profanity-laden opening scenes, John Hughes' Planes, Trains and Automobiles might have been suitable family entertainment: certainly it's heaps less violent and mean-spirited than Hughes' Home Alone. En route to Chicago to spend Thanksgiving with his family, easily annoyed businessman Neal Page Steve Martin finds his first-class plane ticket has been demoted to coach, and he must share his flight with obnoxious salesman Del Griffith John Candy. A sudden snowstorm in Chicago forces the plane to land in Wichita. Unable to find a room in any of the four-star hotels, Neal is compelled to accept Del's invitation to share his accommodations in a cheapo-sleazo motel. Driven to distraction by Del's annoying personal habits, the ungrateful Neal lets forth with a stream of verbal abuse. That's when Del delivers the anticipated but always welcome "I don't judge, why should you?"-type speech so common to John Hughes flicks. The shamefaced Neal tries to make up to Del, but there's a bumpy time ahead as the mismatched pair make their way back to Chicago, first in a balky train, then by way of a refrigerator truck. We know from the outset that the oil-and-water Neal and Del will be bosom companions by the end of Planes, Trains and Automobiles, but it's still a fun ride. The best bit: a half-asleep Del thinking that he's got his hand tucked between two pillows -- until his bedmate, Neal, bellows "Those aren't pillows!" ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    BEST MOVIE EVER

    This is my very favorite movie of all time. Every line is very funny. I can watch it over & over, and never stop laughing The only thing I don't like is the swear words.

    One of the most genuinely funny movies ever! Hilarious dialogue

    One of the most genuinely funny movies ever! Hilarious dialogue from beginning to end, delivered by two legendary comic talents Steve Matin and John Candy. No matter how many times you see it, this film never gets old. There are also some great extras like footlage from a press conference Steve Martin, John Candy and John Hughes did when the film was released.

    The Tears Will Flow...

    You will laugh til you cry and cry til you laugh. By far and away Candy and Martin's best comedic venture. Sure, there's some rough language at times, particularly the car rental scene, but that's what makes it so funny. Edie McClurg (She was a John Hughes favorite. You'll recognize her as Ed Rooney's assistant from Ferris Bueller, another Hughes classic)is hilarious for the two minutes she is on screen as the rental car agent. I have seen the edited car rental seen on broadcast TV and frankly, it's nowhere near as funny without the "F-Bombs".

    John Hughes was a genius at making us laugh and cry at relatable, every day situations. And John Candy was everyman's comic actor. This role was meant for him and in my mind is his comic legacy. Other reviewers are right. When you watch him in this, and the final scence freezes with him smiling, you do realize how much he is missed.

    planes, trains and automobiles

    i've heard a lot about this "masterpiece." its the story of two different people who travel across country to get to chicago for thanksgiving and along the way get into some mishaps and slowly grow a bond and friendship. i thought it was good and some of the scenes were funny especially the car rental scene that was a hoot. the music fit perfectly since it came out like in the 80s or something and of course the director known mostly for the teen films but did a good job with this adult one too. martin and candy make a good team and have good chemistry.

    A beautiful pairing of knowledgeable comedy actors at their light-hearted best. One thing I am struck by is the lack of profanity, which would be a welcome for many families.

    classic comedy with a twist

    This by far is the funniest movie that I have seen Steve Martin in and that goes for John Candy too. What a match. They really played well off of each other.

    How Very True

    We all have had nightmarish travel experiences. I can relate completely to this movie: the trip that seemingly will never end, and the feeling that things can only get worse!! Steve Martin and John Candy make this movie fun, but more importantly, believable!!! Bob from Marion, Ohio

    Candy and Nuts

    I need to watch this at least three times a year -- from Candy's classic mimic of Ray Charles doing 'The Mess Around' to Steve Martin's rent-a-car rant -- this is great cinema. The end is touching. The physical comedy is charming. It's Candy's best.

    Best Thanksgiving movie ever

    Although some profanity is unnecessary this flick has been treasured in my family since it's making in 1987. This is the ''Seinfeld'' of the big screen bringing real life travelling troubles home.

    Great holiday classic

    This is a timeless comedy classic. It gets better every time I see it. Funny throughout and the ending always reminds you that not everyone is fortunate enough to be with friends and family during the holidays. I think this is John Candy's best movie. This movie really makes you miss not having him around anymore.

    A CLASSIC!

    This movie is a classic in my family's estimation. Very funny with lines well delivered and fitting to the situation. Even the music is funny. I think most people can relate to it because most have had the same types of travel problems and encounters with annoying people. Everything simply fits together perfectly in this classic. We watched it every year before the holidays and laugh out loud every time.

    Thanksgiving Tradition

    I have deemed this film a Thanksgiving Tradition. We can all relate to at least one of the mishaps these two characters meet with. The hotel bed scene was and will remain one of the best comedy scenes of all time. Definitely one of John Candy's most memorable performances. Proof of why he is missed so much.
