This is like finding out that 6th grader who's always jumping over stuff with his mountainbike is lactose intolerant. Leslie Nielsen plays a guy called Dick Dix in this movie, and guess what, that's one of the better jokes. It's absolutely painful to see Leslie Nielsen in this movie,desperately looking for one joke that's not a sign of the apocalypse. The script centers mostly around slapstick that doesn't go over at all. Early in the movie a guy loses his wig and we actually follow the wig changing places all the time. The scene goes on forever and serves no purpose, but it does set the tone for the entire movie. No creativity, just boring slapstick and embarrassing attempts to sharp political humour. This is a movie that gets a Clinton impersonator, and focuses on how he plays the saxophone. That's hard-hitting satire right there. Remember how Clinton always played the saxophone? I do, kinda. Nielsen talks about a woman's finesse while she's beating everyone up. Comedy. More WTF-moments come when the three tenors come into the picture. One lovely scene involves a Pavarotti look-a-like threatening to castrate a guy. He makes a snipping gesture and sings a high note. It's hard to even ridicule a joke that's already so terrible all by itself. The type of comedy isn't even consistent, one time it's the aforementioned slapstick, then it's "satire", then suddenly the writers remembered they didn't have any in-jokes yet. So they put in like ten in a row. This thing sucks.
