FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/the-naked-gun-movie-review-making-people-laugh-is-still-a-noble-cinematic-goal/
"The Naked Gun is a triumphant return to a kind of comedy that’s on the verge of extinction. It’s a love letter to a subgenre often dismissed, yet one that, when done right, can provoke genuine, infectious...

**Review: The Naked Gun (2025) – A Goofball Reboot That Delivers Laughs, But Lacks the Original's Bite**
Director Akiva Schaffer’s The Naked Gun (2025) revives the iconic spoof franchise with Liam Neeson stepping into the oversized shoes of Frank Drebin Jr., son of Leslie Nielsen’s legendary bumbling detective. While the film captures the...

That trailer with the little girl going into the bank left me dreading this. I thought it was going to be terrible, but it isn’t. It is very much a respectful homage to all things “Airplane” and “Naked Gun” from years gone by and Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson have entered into the spirit of this entertainingly. There is the thinnest of plots...

An old adage in Hollywood advises against remaking the classics given that, with few exceptions, most fail to live up to the quality of the originals. So it’s always a pleasant surprise when a reboot comes along that defies the conventional wisdom. Such is the case with this wild, wacky, sidesplittingly hysterical installment in the “Naked Gun”...

Pretty fun and plenty of the gags in the same vein as the original. Not a great comedy but fun nevertheless and Liam Neeson was a great choice with his deadpan delivery. **3.0/5**

The Naked Gun is written by Dan Gregor, Doug Mand, and Akira Schaffer, while Schaffer also directs. The Gregor, Mand, and Schaffer were also behind Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers. The new film is not only homage to The Naked Gun franchise, but also to 1990s comedy in general. The comedy in the film is strictly gag after gag with little breaks in...

Liam Neeson is the one bright spot in director Akiva Schaffer‘s otherwise disappointing reboot of “The Naked Gun.” His deadpan delivery and complete commitment to absurdity prove he was the right actor to inherit the legacy of Leslie Nielsen’s iconic Lt. Frank Drebin, but even he can’t carry the film all by himself. With a script peppered with...

Liam Neeson does a pretty good Leslie Nielson impresson. Whoa. The names are as similar as the movie. Classic jokes. Goofy stuff. Kind of funny. Kind of not. But...familiar and warm. Like Liam Neeson cuddling you to sleep at night.
1 hour and 14 minutes! Should get an award for that.

The newest adventures of "The Police Squad" start with pure mayhem. There is no lack of absurdity, in any way, shape, or form. The silliness is already off the chart,
*Spoiler* "On second thought, I think I will take that chair." *Spoiler*
Liam Neeson is in rare form and doing Neilson right with his portrayal of a Police Squad officer,...

A megalomaniac plans to activate a device that will make everyone kill each other but Lt. Detective Frank Drebin (Jr.) is on the case. Perfectly capturing the style and humor of the original Police Squad movies, the film is full of call backs and gags that are easily recognizable but modernized into something unique and original. Liam...
