DVR_Brale I've always thought that making a good parody isn't an easy job. David Proft makes it look easy. There are so many movies being ridiculed in so many ways and so often that's almost impossible you won't be laughing at least a couple of times.Jokes literally appear every ten seconds continually from beginning to the end. If you're capable of recognizing movies that are made fun of, you'll enjoy even more; and there are plenty of those! Leslie Nielsen gave a classical performance where he finds himself in plenty over-the-top situations, be it as a violinist, doctor or convict.Yes, there are some things done badly in Wrongfully Accused but the point is that those things just don't matter in this type of film. This kind of humor is just preposterous and smart. The more quaint it is, the better. The same goes for some sloppy editing - it's done that way in purpose! If you like Leslie Nielsen, you're gonna love this one! And don't watch it too late: you don't wanna wake up entire block laughing.

namashi_1 'Wrongfully Accused' is a decent entertainer, that turns out to be a satisfying parody. The humor works & it's lead-star, the amazing Leslie Nielsen, does exceedingly well.'Wrongfully Accused' Synopsis: Ryan Harrison is framed for murder and must prove himself innocent by finding a mysterious one-eyed, one-armed, one-legged man after escaping from a bus accident on the way to jail.'Wrongfully Accused' is a parody of the 1993 film The Fugitive, And I must say, this parody is funny. The First-Hour is superb & raises a lot of laughs, the Second-Hour drags a bit, but sails off smoothly. Pat Proft's Screenplay & Direction, both, are wild & confident. Cinematography is fine. Performance-Wise: Leslie Nielsen does exceedingly well in the central role. The late actor once again plays poker-face & raises a lot of genuine laughs. Richard Crenna is fantastic. Kelly Le Brock is ordinary. Melinda McGraw, Michael York & Sandra Bernhard, lend support. On the whole, If you're a fan of parodies, then 'Wrongfully Accused', should be in your agenda.

jeremy3 This movie was a series of bad out takes and failed jokes from other movies. That's my guess. The jokes were so obvious and flubbed so badly. However, I kept thinking now that I have seen Borat, every bad movie seems less bad. At least it wasn't entitled "Wrongfully Accused - A Cultural Study of Minnesota". It was just a movie. I didn't pretend to be about something. I think the producers knew that this movie was a dud. It was a movie that was intended to be bad. That's a lot more honest than Borat, which pretended to be about something. The vulgarity and crudeness in Wrongfully Accused was at least tamer and less repugnant than in Borat. At some point, the movie did get funny for awhile. I thought the Mission Impossible "computer scene" was hilarious. I was rolling on the floor. The movie was bad, but at least it mocked it's badness. Even at the end, with the Titanic scene, the point was there was no romantic ending. Even the romance, was an excuse for bad jokes. So, in conclusion, it was better than Borat. It didn't pretend to be about anything significant.

vchimpanzee Ryan Harrison is a talented but quirky classical violinist. He is also quite accident-prone: one member of the orchestra at his latest performance in Minnesota wears a football helmet.Terrorists want to kill U.N. Secretary-General Sir Robert McKintyre. And while Ryan is at the home of Hibbing Goodhue, he is attacked by a man with one arm, one leg, and one eye. When Ryan comes to, Hibbing is dead and Ryan is holding the murder weapon.We don't see the trial, but despite being "wrongfully accused", Ryan is sentenced to death row. Fortunately, there is a sequence corresponding to the train wreck in "The Fugitive". At first, it looks only slightly more realistic than the bus jump in "Spice World"--and that's not saying much. What happens next, though, is hilarious, and it works better if you don't know what's coming.The chase is on! Lt. Fergus Falls is the most brilliant and the most thorough detective in the history of crime, with amazing technological capabilities allowing him to find out anything and everything that could be the least bit relevant to locating and arresting Ryan. But will that be enough?Some gags worked, while others did not. One gag that did work involved a defaced wanted poster. I do remember so many hilarious moments in a short period that I laughed until I cried. Fortunately, there was relief from the rapid pace most of the time.I think I would have enjoyed the movie more if I had seen more of the movies being lampooned. "Mission: Impossible" was obvious--and the security system in the scene was obviously designed by Jews. I also noticed "Dirty Harry", "Titanic" and "Field of Dreams" were parodied.Leslie Nielsen didn't quite achieve the masterful performances from the "Airplane" and "Naked Gun" movies, but I enjoyed his work anyway. The clever writing, of course, adds a lot to this type of film for which Nielsen is best known.Richard Crenna was no Tommy Lee Jones. I could tell he was spoofing the "Fugitive" detective, but something seemed to be missing from his performance.Melinda McGraw looked good, and she gave a decent performance as well.They can't all be "Airplane!" or "The Naked Gun" but I still had a good time.
