Liam Neeson plays the son of Leslie Nielsen’s character from the original series and has to stop a tech billionaire’s evil scheme of world domination while romancing a femme fatale caught up in a case.
So for years, I’ve been saying it would be a fun idea if they remade The Naked Gun starring Liam Neeson… And thank God this movie turned out well, or else I would’ve looked ridiculous for recommending it for so long lol.
It’s been a while in general since we’ve seen a good spoof movie, like the ones where every 15 seconds or so there’s a new over-the-top ridiculous gag but played completely straight. A lot of it works because the writing is good, but the whole cast did a fantastic job and must have had a blast shooting this.
Liam Neeson is hilarious and completely commits to the absurdity.
Pamela Anderson was very funny and had great commute timing. With this and “The Last Showgirl,” I’m glad to see her making a bit of a comeback; she deserves it.
It was very clever casting Danny, Houston, and Kevin Durant as the villains, not just because they’re really good, but because they’re always playing villains in things, so that was very authentic casting lol.
This is a hard movie to talk about because so much of the film is one gag after another, so me telling you about the film would be me going, “This gag was really funny” or “That gag was hilarious,” so let me just say they knew how to deliver a gag and came up with quite a few clever and silly ideas.
I was also surprised how short the movie was; it didn’t feel less than an hour and a half. I guess that goes to show they were able to fit a lot into a little and make the most out of it.
There's quite a bit of good cinematography in this, like you could tell they were having fun lighting the villain's lair so it looked extra evil and intimidating. I appreciate the extra effort.
Also, some really nice cameos… Make sure to stay through all the credits because they have some good gags throughout.
Also, fun sidenote… I ran into some friends from work by surprise there. I'm glad I got to see it with them; it was a great time. 👍
But it was just a nice time seeing a real capital FUN-ny movie. Like, this is one of those movies I think is best enjoyed around a lot of people and friends; you’ll have a great time laughing over it. I give The Naked Gun a low five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. It’s not the deepest movie, but some good laughs can really make all the difference lol.
