The last golden shot of a great era of amazing film parodies. The story spoofing The Fugitive, complemented by countless other references, works brilliantly, with an incredible number of jokes for such a short time span, and most importantly, most of them can be considered excellent to brilliant (of course, a lot depends on how well you know or don't know the films being referenced). The romantic line may lack verve and ideas, but the moments of mindless chatter are amply compensated for by Leslie Nielsen's flawless performance, as well as by Richard Crenna, who steals every scene he appears in as Tommy Lee Jones. Selfishly, I am of the opinion that whoever is not entertained by Wrongfully Accused still has some work to do as a film fan :-) 85% (2011.12.04)

Compared to Spy Hard which was really just a sequence of sketches as far as I’m concerned, this one felt much more coherent. Again, it was a parody of many iconic films, and I was both amused and amazed. I was surprised because I didn’t think some of those films were as old as that. Leslie Nielsen is a safe bet, proving once again that he was the right choice for this type of comedy. I’m not saying it was the comedy of the year, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t having fun. / Lesson learned: Have you been falsely accused? Too bad it’s not the 90s anymore. It was a wild time, but the presumption of innocence still existed. (2022.09.16)

Leslie Nielsen's last film, which can be described as good. Never again has this white-haired demon come so close to the classic The Naked Gun. Wrongfully Accused is worth seeing because of the dozens of references to various films. It’s too bad that there were a few awkward jokes, but otherwise, I have no reservations. (2010.05.10)
