Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear (1991)
Country: US
Technical: col 85m
Director: David Zucker
Cast: Leslie Nielsen, Priscilla Presley, George Kennedy, Richard Griffiths
Synopsis:
Frank Drebin's old flame is implicated in a plot to replace her boss, a sustainable energy scientist, with a decoy before his report can threaten the vested interests of the fossil fuel lobby.
Review:
Beginning with a pre-credit in which Nielsen eats lobster at the White House, this sequel never quite sustains this level of blithe irreverence that made The Naked Gun such a triumph, but it is sobering to note that Hollywood at least had heard of climate change as early as 1991.
