Any film that can resurrect Pia Zadora from obscurity, if only to plunk a tuba on her head and toss her off a stage, deserves some kind of award.

Reviews for The Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult
The film's first-time director, Peter Segal, has adopted the series' style seamlessly.
Wherever you are in the story, there's always something funny coming at you.
A riotous comedy that -- even with a different director -- manages to remember why the original was so funny.
Silly enough to make you laugh sometimes in spite of yourself -- at least if you're feeling like a little boy.
Manages to be not only still funny but energetically slapped together and occasionally inventive.
It occurred to me, watching the film, that what Leslie Nielsen and Priscilla Presley do here is not easy, and is done well.
Some of this is funny, but an awful lot falls flat, and the film ultimately wears out its welcome long before it's over.
