Crammed full of gags, it felt like a laugh a minute. If the first one is said to be slightly better then I’ll look forward to watching that soon.

The Police Squad is back in full force in The Naked Gun 2 ½: The Smell of Fear. When there’s an attack on the president's energy advisor Lt. Frank Drebin is assigned the case, but things get personal when he discovers that his ex-girlfriend Jane is involved and may be the next target. The original cast returns and give even stronger performances. However, the humor is overly sexual and doesn’t quite fit tonally with all the pratfalls and sight gags. Though it’s not as funny as the original, The Naked Gun 2 ½: The Smell of Fear is full of laughs.

Putting that aside, I do think there were more memorable, iconic moments in this movie than there was in the first one. The running gags were more enjoyable, probably because that's what they are in this movie since this is the second movie in a trilogy. Yet another fun, enjoyable experience, this was.

This isn't an half bad sequel to the entertaining "Naked Gun" (1988) with Leslie Nielsen reprising his hapless "Drebin" character. This time he teams up again with "Ed" (George Kennedy) and "Nordberg" (OJ Simpson) to try to thwart the ambitions of big business in the energy sector. To protect their More

**A sequel that closely follows the initial film, although it may not be as strong.**

After a predictable success with the first film, the sequel was already predictable and the public flocked to see a new dose of madness, with Leslie Nielsen in great form. When watching this film forty years aft More
