7/10
A Decent Entertainer...
8 December 2011
'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.
