don not get me wrong . i be a huge fan of police squad . ( in color ) . it just that what make that great be exactly what be miss from this movie . in the police squad . series and leslie nielsen play a straight dead pan character and very serious . very little mugging to the camera and and react to the silliness around him with a dryness that only jack webb could muster . in spy hard and we have a cartoonish character whose a buffoon . he mug to the camera at every turn . he try to have fun with the audience . sadly it just make him look sad . the best thing about this movie ( the 5 star moment ) be the opening credit sing by wierd al . after that and to say it ok be push it . it bad and but not bad enough to be good . it more like a poor man 3 stooge style slapstick than anything and and i do mean totally destitute type of poor . you would be good off see airplane or police squad . ( and the naked gun movie that follow ) 20 time in a row . you will find the 20th showing of any of these movie more enjoyable than the first viewing of spy hard .
