I had always watched the edited version on tv. We threw this one in the trash because it was so bad in language.

This is a great Holiday video, one of the best. It's so funny and heart warming. One movie you just have to see.

This movie is great. Steve Martin and the Late John Candy really do a good job with this one. People getting along. This has the late John Hughes touch to it with the music and just the overall feel to it. Back in baby arms with emmy lou singing and steve and john waking up in that hotel scene is one of the funny things recorded to film. I miss john candy and john hughes. I think Steve would think of this with fond memories. Merry Christmas.. Happy Holidays..

PLANES, TRANES AND AUTOMOBILES has deservedly become a classic in it's own right. There is something very likable about this movie and it's characters. John Candy is perfect as the obese and talkative (but still lovable) shower ring salesman. Steve Martin is superb as the uptight business man who as to deal with Candy's antics. These men get into many outragous situations with hilarious results. The slap stick in this movie is laugh out loud funny although the premise is a bit thin. The movie actually has quite a touching ending with everything working out. A very funny movie for older kids and their parents to watch at Thanksgiving.

Del And Neal's Excellent Adventure
Added 11/27/2009
I've been hearing for years that PLANES, TRAINS AND AUTOMOBILES is absolutely hilarious and "the" perfect Thanksgiving movie. So this Thanksgiving my family and I watched it and though we laughed out loud several times the movie wasn't quite the continuous laugh festival I was expecting. Steve Martin is no wild and crazy guy in this movie but an exasperated uptight business man with the "perfect" family waiting for him in their lovely suburban Chicago home. John Candy is great as the endearingly annoying Del but his weight and cigarette smoking throughout the film struck me as sad when I remembered his premature death in real life. And because of some real salty language this one definitely isn't for the little ones or anyone easily offended by "certain" words and outrageous situations. Still, I have to agree it is probably one of the top movies set during Thanksgiving week that will give most people some real belly laughs.
