    George Kellerman: Yes, what seems to be the problem now? Airline Stewardess: Well, I imagine that we've run into some bad weather. George Kellerman: You don't have to imagine just look out the window!

    albeit having some funny moments the film was just moan moan moan moan and frankly i get enough of that shit from the older folks where i work. last thing i wanna do is sit down for 2 hours and hear some couple complain constantly. jack lemmon couldn't save this.. and he only knows why he decided it would be a good idea to act in this film with this script that can only have been written with the sole idea of pissing people off
