Critics Reviews

Variety
Crass, broad, irreverent, wacky fun - and absolutely hilarious from beginning to end.
TV Guide
A continuous stream of verbal and visual gags that come so fast, you don't have time to realize how bad/old/corny they are.

Users Reviews

i love this movie!
this movie is just pure fun. If you want a good laugh, sit down and watch it. One of the goofiest heroes in cinema ever, Leslie Nielsen produces moments of true hilarity. Fast-paced comedy/parody that combines slapstick humor with clever pop-culture...
