It makes minimal sense - who cares. It has almost every sight gag ever thought up somewhere in it. Looking carefully, you will find ripoffs of almost anything we hold dear - Monty Python, Casablanca, Raiders of the Lost Ark, the Beach Boys, 50's music, and almost everything else (I don't count Blue Lagoon as something I hold dear, BTW). The credits have LOTS of gags in them, although one may have to see the film a couple of times to catch them. It is worth watching pretty carefully to try to catch all of the references to famous movies - anybody care to take a stab at naming some of them?
