Description

Neal Page is an advertising executive who just wants to fly home to Chicago to spend Thanksgiving with his family. But all Neal Page gets is misery. Misery named Del Griffith — a loud mouthed, but nevertheless lovable, salesman who leads Neal on a cross-country, wild goose chase that keeps Neal from tasting his turkey. Steve Martin (Neal) and John Candy (Del) are absolutely wonderful as two guys with a knack for making the worst of a bad situation. If it's painful, funny, or just plain crazy, it happens to Neal and Del in "Planes, Trains and Automobiles." Every traveller's nightmare in a comedy-come-true!

This film is almost 30 years old and still makes me laugh and cry; a marvellous feat for a comedy.

A great funny movie

This is a rather odd film but none the less quite a good one, i saw it late at night on sky and had nothing better to so i watched it. I wasnt disapointed either! I would recommend this film even after just that one watching, the characters are authentic, quirky and interesting, this is, overall, a very origonal film with some funny moments.

A film with a moral.

This film is probably John Candy's best film. Its a shame he is dead as he was a very talented actor. There's not many actors around his size with his natural talent. This film is not only very funny but it has a moral to the story too. You will work it out at the end. It actually kinda changed my life as it made me look at people in a different way and I changed my attitude to people which once I was negative towards.
An excellent film well acted throughout. Buy it, its a film you will never forget.. R.I.P John Candy..

Great movie but why can't I buy it???

One to watch with a great script and cast. Originally released in 1987 the pairing of Steve Martin and John Candy still makes me laugh.

Pure Classic!

A wonderful family comedy. Full of laughs and great comedy moments from the late great John Candy. A must see movie.
