The Naked Gun is chock full of gags that are goofy, unapologetically crass, and ultimately hilarious.

It gave me about 10 big laughs and 20 small laughs and as many smiles. That`s value for time and money spent. May 6, 2014 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

In the years since he first played Drebin, Nielsen has deepened the role, made it more subtle, more universal, more paramount. May 6, 2014 | Full Review…

The two Zuckers and Abrahams have, surprisingly, forgotten a principle of parody that they taught everyone else. Namely, that the jokes have to fit, and that they have to refer to the target -- in this instance police movies. May 6, 2014 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

The Naked Gun is hugely funny, but it`s also liberating-precisely because it centers its aim on that cold, closed system and blows it apart. The straight lines are shattered; the empty spaces in the images are packed full until they burst. May 6, 2014 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

Like the ZAZ lads' other films, this is a movie made for a VCR Saturday night. They supply the jokes; you bring the microwave popcorn and modest expectations. May 6, 2014 | Full Review…

The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! a gift from the crew that gave us the original Airplane! is a charmingly unstable comedy whose "everything-but-the-kitchen-sink" approach to shtick is downright surreal. Feb 22, 2019 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Run, don't walk, to The Naked Gun. Even if you have to elbow your sweet old mother-in-law or moony grandson out of the way to get to it, by all means do. You won't be sorry. It's that funny. Apr 29, 2018 | Full Review…

Surprisingly funny. Best of the trilogy.
Super Reviewer
Leslie Nielson is hilarious with his deadpan face and playing the clumsiest cop since Inspector Clouseau in a very funny parody of film noirs and James Bond movies that is a considerable step above Airplane! and Top Secret! in terms of more well-inspired jokes and gags.
Another great hit from the team ZAZ with the brillant Leslie Nielsen in his most remember role, or at least one of the most remember, Lt.Frank Drebin.
One of the funniest films to exist. This superb comedy proves that Leslie Nielsen is the King of slapstick. With so many laughs, this may most likely leave you with stitches from constant laughter.
