Misses the mark
9 March 2024
Oh dear. An attempt to re-create the humour of the Zuckers & Abrahams as seen so well in Police Squad, Airplane and Naked Gun doesn't work here. There are too many gags, most of which are weak and unfunny, and in fact the film would have been better with fewer but better jokes and better writing generally. Attempts to make *everything* funny is always doomed to failure. There were a few moments that had me chortling, but overall I'd give this film a 5 at best. Looking at Leslie's filmography, I see he's done one with title '2001: a Space Travesty' and another called 'Men with Brooms' - maybe they'll be worth a look?
