Oh dear. Poor old Leslie Neilsen must be the only movie star who feels like the rest of us: every day he has to get up for work and do the same thing over and over and over again...
This so-called comedy is in the style of Neilsen's Naked Gun flicks, but the humour on display here is far removed from the inspired zaniness of that series of films. Neilsen's OK - he can do this kind of thing with his eyes shut, I imagine - but everything else about this film is bad. The female lead in this just about passes muster, but she only weighs about two stone, and the bad guy used to be Richard Briers' suave neighbour in Ever Decreasing Circles back in the 80s, so its just about impossible to see him as a real baddie.
The film itself doesn't really have much to do with 2001 - in fact it looks more like a take on the Men in Black flicks, although films of every genre are referenced throughout. It does get marginally better in the last 20 minutes when the three tenors give a spirited rendition of Village People's In the Navy, but by then only the strongest-willed of viewers will still be around.
Bottom line: Everyone involved in this should hang their heads in shame...
