Leslie Nielsen sets out to do for 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY what he did for the police procedural in THE NAKED GUN. Aliens from the planet Vegan have replaced the U.S. President (modelled on Bill Clinton) with a clone, and the authorities call on International Security Force member Marshall "Dick" Dix (Leslie Nielsen) to head out into the stars and rescue him before all of the world's leaders meet a similar fate. On Vegan, Dix learns that the planet's denizens have learned English by watching television and speak in the voices of Hollywood stars. With the help of a sexy officer (Ophelie Winter) and a master of disguise (Ezzio Greggio), Dix attempts to restore the president to his rightful place and prevent any further interplanetary conflicts.

I know I'm supposed to judge either the positives or the shortcomings of a film here, but in this case I'd rather keep it straight and direct: avoid this crap, because you won't be missing anything. And if you like Leslie Nielsen, get any other of his comedies, because all of them are 100% better, funnier and more tolerable than this one.

Leslie Nielsen is putting the effort in... but unfortunately, he's the only one. I give one star for a couple of good jokes (the title scene, the demented destruction of the moon base model, “In the NAVY" by the Three Tenors), which are woefully few.
