Summary: Hilarious
Review: 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.

Summary: Dumbful but Playful Comedy.
Review: A group of Amateur Heavy Metal Band named The Long Rangers (Brendan Fraser, Steve Buscemi, Adam Sandler), they try to give thier music cassette to a Radio Host (Joe Mantegna). But everything falls apart, when the Amateur Band take over The Radio Station and Taken people Hostage from inside the Radio Station.

This film has some moment of laugh out situation comedy here. Fraser, Buscemi and Sandler are fun in this film. Great Rock & Roll music, Directed by Micheal Lehmann (Hudson Hawk, The Truth about Cats & Dogs, My Giant), Dumb fun. Grade:B+.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not An Academy Awards Dished Out Here
Review: A largely forgettable movie (and deservedly so), AIRHEADS coulda been a contender. It had some box office draws before they were relative heavyweights (Adam Sandler, Brendon Fraser, and Steve Buscemi). It had a great comic premise surrounding a wannabe rock band taking over a radio station for the sole purpose of airing their demo tape. It even had some nice little performances from the supporting characters. How did a little film with such potential end up so uneven?

Two words: didn't gel.

The greater comic moments are brushed aside in a quick moving tale that, ultimately, ends up being about nothing more than jilted love ... but isn't that the driving force behind all wannabe heavy metal bands?

Maybe that's why I don't enjoy heavy metal.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Light hearted heavy metal fun
Review: A surprisingly good comedy movie thats funnier than it should be that deserves a spot next to Spinal Tap in any metalhead's movie library. Brendan Fraser, Steve Buscemi, and Adam Sandler star as a band called the Lone Rangers, who determined to get their demo heard, take a radio station hostage with water pistols. What results is so stupid its hilarious and Adam Sandler is great as the dumbfounded drummer. The ensemble cast also includes Joe Mantagna, Michael McKean, Chris Farley, Ernie Hudson, Judd Nelson, Michael Richards, David Arquette, and Harold Ramis. Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead also makes an appearence as the guy who says he used to be editor of his school newspaper and White Zombie appears in the club scene.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I loved this movie.
Review: Adam Sandler is at his best. He hasn't played a part so good after this up until Big Daddy. He is a complete, mindless, idiot...but so darn loveable. But unlike his other movies, he isn't a complete moron.

The funny this is that this isn't even his movie. No one was the star in this one. It was a group effort here, and it worked. Three guys taking over a radio station with water pistols just sounds fun. And boy, is it.

Watch this movie. It's not a classic, but you'll like it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Airheads Was THE BEST movie ever
Review: Adam Sandler is one of my favorite actors on this planet and he went great with Brendan Fraser and Steve Buscemi(or however you spell it). It had its dumb parts and perverted parts but it also was filled with hilarious jokes and great actors! I recomend this movie to all comedy lovers!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This was an okay movie,but I love Adam Sandler!!
Review: Adam Sandler is paired with his buddy Steve Buscemi in this ridiculously stupid movie about a band that probably basically *****. They want to get some air play so they take the radio station hostage. Like forever later, they are bustin out the tunes with the cops surrounding them. Adam Sandler does pretty good and delivers a couple of his expected laughs. I'd see it if I was an Adam Sandler fan or just to see the stupidity of it. Overall, You'll probably laugh a few times and that's good for anybody!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Born to raise hell
Review: AIRHEADS is a funny comedy about an aspiring rock band called "The Lone Rangers" (not actually pluralized, isn't it?) who unwittingingly hold a radio station hostage with... get this, water guns! The band "just wants to play their demo". Theyre' pretty dumb huh? Anyway the film does please the audience with a funny cast including Brendan Fraser, Steve Buscemi, an early up and comer Adam Sandler, Chris Farley and "Spinal Tap" star Michael McKean.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Airheads
Review: AIRHEADS is a heavy metal comedy starring Brendan Frasier, Steve Buscemi and Adam Sandler. This one is pretty funny. Adam Sandler is a total riot in this one. It's great!

Chaz (Fraser), Rax (Buscemi) and Pip (Sandler are The Lone Rangers, a struggling metal band that wants to make it big. After hearing a rumor that a local DJ would play their music if they asked nicely, they go down to the radio station and get totally shot down. They come back with a plan, let's take over the radio but we don't want to hurt anyone so we'll use water guns to hold them up. It's a total head bangin laugh out loud comedy.

This one was pretty funny and it has a pretty good cast with Michael McKean, Michael Richards, Joe Montegna, Chris Farley, Judd Nelson and many more. And a pretty good cameo by Motorhead singer/bassist Lemmy. The laughs in this one just keep coming throughout the film. At first, I questioned if Steve Buscemi could play this role (considering he's older than both Sandler and Fraser and that previously, his best known role was for Mr. Pink in RESERVOIR DOGS). I have to give it to him that he easily hangs with Sandler, Fraser and Farley in this one.

I'd check this one out. It's decent and it's got some really good laughs in it. Plus some really good music in it as well. Check out AIRHEADS and if you're looking for other movies by Fraser, Sandler and Buscemi, check out Fraser in THE MUMMY and THE MUMMY RETURNS, Sandler in HAPPY GILMORE, THE WATERBOY and LITTLE NICKY and Buscemi in RESERVOIR DOGS, CON AIR and Buscemi and Sandler in THE WEDDING SINGER.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good comedy..
Review: Airheads is a sweet film that does'nt quite live up to Waynes world in humour but still is a pretty funny film, i'd recommened airheads to people looking for a film with light hearted fun and those seeking ideas to create personal havoc (jk), i prefer Adam Sandler in this to a few of his other films such as little Nicky or Big daddy, airheads is just a fun, riot film thats no train wreck.
