Airbag
(1997)
Airbag
is a 1997 comedy about
Juantxo (Karra Elejalde)
who is about to get
married and is taken on a
buck's party to a brothel
by his two friends Pako
(Alberto San Juan) and
Konradin (Fernando Guillén
Cuervo). Juantxo
reluctantly gets
entertained by a
prostitute (Vicenta
N'Dongo) before she
suggests something a
little more exotic, which
works. Except in the
process, Juantxo has lost
the expensive engagement
ring up the prostitute's
arse (ahem!). She gives it
to her boss Villambrosa
(Francisco Rabal) who
finds out it's worth a
fortune and attempts to
kill the friends when he
they come to get the ring.
The friends get a ride to
next brothel owned by
Villambrosa, but there
they are mistaken for
Portuguese gangsters led
by Fatima (Maria de
Medeiros) and are given a
suitcase full of drugs.
The friends are chased by
the Portuguese gangsters
back into Spain as they
attempt to get home for
the wedding. Oh and a
whole lot of other stuff
happen involving the
bride's mother (Rosa Maria
Sardà), a pedophile
politician (Santiago
Segura) looking to lead
Spain and a bunch of other
people and a bunch of
shootouts.
This movie is so
nonsensical with way too
much going on before it
goes into a lull for most
of the second hour before
ending in exhaustion after
132 minutes with an ending
which is so ridiculous it
actually suits the movie.
At no stage does this
movie know what it wants
to be, so it's everything;
a sex comedy, a
Tarantino-like gangster
movie, a madcap chase
comedy etc. with a whole
bunch of cameos
(admittedly I don't know
who a lot are although
Javier Bardem turns up in
a terrible soap opera that
the movie completely stops
to watch...). The editor
must have been asleep
during this one, so just
put in everything, some'll
stick even if most will
fail. And then there's the
explanation of the title
with a number of scenes
involving airbags. Why?
Airbag is one helluva
mess, not a good one, but
a messy one that's for
sure.
I remember Nathalie Seseña
from a slew of 90s Spanish
movies I remember watching
on SBS back in the day
(funnily enough, I don't
remember Airbag getting a
run as I'm sure I would've
remembered it, but El Día
de la Bestia got a big
run), but the one movie I
remember her from was
Atómica, a movie that
makes Airbag look like a
masterpiece from memory,
it's that bad. There's
this one scene early one
where she plays a
character complaining
about not getting any sex
and then has this awesome
sex scene with a security
guard at a shopping mall,
which may have been a
fantasy, my memory is a
bit iffy. Sadly can't find
a copy of the movie as I'd
definitely cap it. Maybe
remember if the movie was
as terrible as I think it
to be...)
