On DVD

'Hot Shots!' sets out to do for 'Top Gun' what the
DVD Extras: The disc contains both this one and the sequel from two years later 'Hot Shots! Part Deux' - but, on the extra features front, there's only a trailer for each film.

It's Got: That old comedy chestnut, the helium gag.

It Needs: Better funnies - if that means fewer of them, then so be it.

Alternatives: Naked Gun, The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell Of Fear, Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult, Airplane!, Top Secret!

Summary: Any movie that takes a pop at 'Top Gun' can't be all bad - but it's no 'Naked Gun'.
