Charlie Sheen, Valeria Golino, Lloyd Bridges, Brenda Bakke, Rowan Atkinson, Miguel Ferrer and Richard Crenna star in this 1993 comedy sequel. This installment obviously spoofs "Rambo" and pokes fun at other films like "Terminator 2," "Star Wars" and "Basic Instinct." Sheen returns as navy pilot, Topper who is sent on a mission to rescue war soldiers captured in Iraq. Golino also returns as Ramada as well as the late, Bridges as former Admiral, Tug Benson who is now a U.S. President. Bakke (Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight) plays CIA operative, Michelle who gets involved with Topper, Atkinson (Mr. Bean) plays Ramada's ex-husband, Dexter who is one of the captured soldiers, Ferrer (Robocop) plays ex-soldier, Harbinger and the late, Crenna (First Blood) plays Colonel, Walters who recruits Topper for his mission, but also gets captured after attempting to rescue the soldiers. This is a good sequel, the cast is great and the scenes with Saddam Hussein (Jerry Haleva) are hilarious. I recommend this.

Hot Shots Part Deux is a better than average movie with a alright story line and a great cast.Its definitely not better than the original Hot Shots,but its not an awful sequel.People who where fans of the first might be disappointed,but I didn't have very high hopes because I wasn't a huge fan of the first,but its definitely not as good as the first,I just found it to be a movie to just laugh at,but still misses a lot,its not as good as movies like Airplane or The Naked Gun.Fans of the first Hot Shots will probably be disappointed,but will probably still laugh at many scenes.Topper Harley (Charlie Sheen) returns,this time in a parody of Rambo as he is the leader of a team in heading to Iraq to rescue a soldier who has been kidnapped.

If you are the hardcore movie fan, particularly comedy fan, this movie rocks! Everything is over the top, but only for a very big laugh from the audiences. I saw this movie after a long time of Charlie Sheen's big bad news. However, he had a great look of the main actor even in comedy movie. Lloyd Bridges also showed his outstanding performance as the poker face comedian. He made me think of the late Leslie Nielsen. Oh god! the United States has the Rambo president!Every gag that we see in this movie are non-sense, silly, and flawlessly laughing matter. However, I love this and I will grant that Hot Shots! Part Deux is one of the greatest comedy movie in all time!

I watched "Part Deux" just a day after the original and found it just a couple of notches below its predecessor. The spoof target is mainly "Rambo-First Blood", but as before many other films are referenced, like "Basic Instinct", "Apocalypse Now" (naturally) "Robin Hood Prince of Thieves" and even Disney's "The Lady and the Tramp". it's all part of the fun, of course, as well as making sure you watch the background, where a sight-gag is invariably playing.Charlie Sheen is all pumped up with somewhere to go, although this time I found too much camera time devoted to Lloyd Bridges' president, even if he does seem to anticipate Dubya years in advance. There are some comic gems, like the "Geronimo" sketch, heck I even laughed out loud at the map showing a no-man's land between Iraq and A Hard Place. If that kind of humour tickles you, there's plenty more, for better or worse, from where that came from, although the first in the series, where the characters and situations were fresher, in my opinion, edges out its follow-up in the comedy stakes.
