Fletch (1985)
From Amazon:
Gregory McDonald's lightweight mystery novel about an undercover newspaper reporter cracking a police drug ring is transformed by screenwriter Andrew Bergman (Blazing Saddles, and writer/director of The Freshman and Honeymoon in Vegas) into a fairly sarcastic and occasionally very funny Chevy Chase vehicle. Enjoyment of the film pivots on whether you find Chase's flippant, smart-ass brand of verbal humor funny, or merely egocentric. If you don't like Chase, there's really no one else worth watching (Geena Davis is sadly underused). Chase seems born to play I.M. "Fletch" Fletcher, a disillusioned investigative reporter...

Okay, so, maybe this isn't the funniest movie ever made.
But it's pretty close.
Chevy Chase is Irwin M. Fletcher, but he also goes by Ted Nugent, John c*cktostosten,and Fletch F. Fletch, among others, and is pretty much a master of disguise (he's 6' 4", 6' 6" with the afro).
The story opens with Fletch going undercover...
