Details
Movie Description
A slapstick spoof of police thrillers and action films by the makers of AIRPLANE, THE NAKED GUN stars Leslie Nielsen as Lt. Frank Drebin. This comic cop and master car-crasher must protect Queen Elizabeth II when world terrorists target her for assassination during her visit to the U.S. Despite this high-level assignment, Frank still has time to fall in love with a younger woman (Priscilla Presley), and nearly destroy the world several times over while trying to save it. Considerably more successful than the TV series it was based on (POLICE SQUAD!), this zany parody led to two sequels and a comedy career for Leslie Nielsen, then known mainly for his role in FORBIDDEN PLANET., In this zany comedy, L.A. cop Lt. Frank Drebin nearly destroys the world several times over (while trying to save it) as he uncovers an insidious plot to assassinate the Queen of England during an L.A. Dodgers game.

Los Angeles Times - Michael Wilmington (12/02/1988)
"...This often uproarious elaboration on ABC's short-lived 1982 series never stoops to the trite..."
