series American Gagsters: Great Comedy Teams
Directed by David Zucker | 1988
With Leslie Nielsen,Priscilla Presley,Ricardo Montalban,George Kennedy,O.J. Simpson
“It's true what they say: Cops and women don't mix. It's like eating a spoonful of Drano; sure, it'll clean you out, but it'll leave you hollow inside.” Six years after the cancellation of Police Squad, Nielsen re-teamed with the Zuckers and Jim Abrahams to bring Lieutenant Frank Drebin to the big screen, cementing Drebin’s status as arguably one of the most memorable characters in late 20th-century American comedy. A plot is unfolding to assassinate Queen Elizabeth II during an LA Dodgers game and Drebin must foil the murder while romancing the beautiful Jane Spencer (Presley). Side-splitting from start to finish with a nonstop barrage of puns, slapstick, sight gags, and a surprisingly funny performance by O.J. Simpson.
