Obwohl er schon seit längerer Zeit wegen seinen unterdurchschnittlichen Leistungen nicht mehr im Dienst ist, soll Topper Harley für einen Großeinsatz der Navy unter der Leitung des unzurechnungsfähigen Admirals Benson reaktiviert werden. Noch vor Missionsbeginn trifft er auf die schöne Ramada, die ihn von seiner eigentlichen Aufgabe vollkommen ablenkt. Da mag es keinen Unterschied mehr machen, dass ein rivalisierender Flugzeughersteller sämtliche Maschinen des Kommandos zum Absturz bringen will, um die Verkaufschancen für sein neuestes Produkt zu erhöhen...

A causa del disonore di cui si era ricoperto suo padre, Topper Harley, un eroico pilota, si ritira a vita privata, ma viene richiamato in servizio per una pericolosissima missione, denominata 'Donnola sonnolenta'. Topper é così impegnato a dimostrare di essere all'altezza di quello specialissimo gruppo e allo stesso tempo entra in conflitto con Gregory per la conquista dell'amore della psichiatra della base. Intanto però, un gruppo di industriali cerca di far fallire la missione.
Part of Hot Shots! Collection
Hot Shots! is a 1991 comedy spoof film starring Charlie Sheen, Cary Elwes, Valeria Golino, Lloyd Bridges, Kevin Dunn, Jon Cryer and Ryan Stiles. It was directed by Jim Abrahams, and was written by Abrahams and Pat Proft. Carrying the same comedic vein as Airplane!, a film Abrahams co-directed, the film primarily spoofs the 1986 action film Top Gun, but also draws material from films like Rocky and Superman. It spawned a sequel in 1993, Hot Shots! Part Deux. Sheen and Cryer would later co-star in the television series Two and a Half Men, in which Stiles also went on to play a recurring role.
