What I liked
The clever adaptation of the film to the stage, the very smart use of the ensemble throughout, and the faithfulness to the original. Some of the updates and tweaks were super sharp. Pulp Fiction reference I am looking in particular at you!
What I didn't like
There were a few of my “favorite moments” from the film that didn’t make the cut (or were from Airplane II, so I am going to re-watch the movie before this criticism is set in stone).
My overall impression
This show is a love-letter to fans of cult classic film. If that’s you, Surely you’ve already seen the show? I haven’t and stop calling me Shirley.
Well then go, unless you hate fun (and Airplane) in which case only go if you can avoid loudly complaining to the folks who are having a good time.
Special shout out to the stage ninja (stage hand) how does so much with what some actors would refuse on the grounds he doesn’t get lines.
