    Most probably my least favourite film, both of Mel Brooks (though I haven't seen 'Life Stinks' yet) and of Leslie Nielsen (though I refuse to watch any other of the post-'Airplane' and 'Naked Gun' knockoffs he's made over the years since), but it still doesn't deserve all the hate. It's STILL at least 50,000 times funnier than Lena Dunham's 'Tiny Furniture' (or about 70% of the so-called contemporary American comedie…

    Mel in top form Mel can get misses, but this is him at his peak. The movie gets hold of the source material, injects the whimsy of Mel, and then pours on Leslie on top to make the best vampire-sundae you can imagine. The lines are flying, the absurdity seems logical within context, and noone is slacking. The effect-work, something which was never the focus, is also working well for what it is supposed to do, and …
