The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad ★★★ 1988 (PG-13)
More hysterical satire from the creators of “Airplane!” The short-lived TV cop spoof “Police Squad” moves to the big screen and has Lt. Drebin uncover a plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth while she is visiting Los Angeles. Nearly nonstop gags and pratfalls provide lots of laughs. Nielsen is perfect as Drebin and the supporting cast is strong; cameos abound. 85m/C VHS, DVD . Leslie Nielsen, Ricardo Montalban, Priscilla Presley, George Kennedy, O.J. Simpson, Nancy Marchand, John Houseman; Cameos: Weird Al Yankovic, Reggie Jackson, Dr. Joyce Brothers; D: David Zucker; W: Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams, Pat Proft, David Zucker; M: Ira Newborn.
