    Naked Gun Style Movie with a young John Candy! What's Not To Like?

    I found this online recently. I'm a John Candy fan and had never heard of this one before. He looks to be in his early to mid 20's. If you're a fan of the zany Naked Gun/Airplane movies, you'll probably like this one. If you're not, you probably won't. It's a slapstick humor kind of movie. I enjoyed it for what it was.
