It's a little dated now, since it came out in 1980, but it's still funny - if you're one of those people who's still in touch with the sense of humour you had as an adolescent. It's a parody of the disaster film genre which hit a peak in the seventies (Towering Inferno, The Poseidon Adventure, Earthquake, etc, etc), so you'll only get some of the references if you're familiar with those trashy films, but it's silly and ridiculous enough that my young-teen daughter was amused by it.
Which of these comedic actors is better?

You might give Airplane! a try.
