Suffice to say this Naked Gun packs an Airplane!’s worth of sight gags, non-sequiturs, malapropisms and misunderstood lines into a rapid-fire, comedy-friendly 85 minutes, the exact (and perfect!) timing of the 1988 original.

The Naked Gun's joke-per-minute ratio is truly astounding, and the fact that so many of them hit as well as they do makes that even more impressive. For goodness' sake, even the credits have jokes in them!

If you’ve seen the originals, you know exactly what to expect — pure nonsense, ridiculous situations, intentional continuity errors, and completely illogical timelines. And this new installment doesn’t disappoint: the spirit and humor are all there. Both a reboot (the characters share the same names) and a sequel (they’re actually the children of the original ones), it’s a delight to see Drebin reborn through Liam Neeson — who, fittingly, keeps the “LN” initials of Leslie Nielsen. After so many serious roles, Neeson gleefully destroys his tough-guy image to play a clueless old cop, and it works brilliantly. I haven’t laughed this hard at a comedy in years — it’s that classic SNL-style absurdity done right. At just 1h26 including credits, it’s perfectly timed, never overstaying its welcome. Special mention to the running coffee gag, which stops just when it should… only to return at the end for one last perfectly timed laugh.

At its best, this new Naked Gun is a dumb, loopy delight, a return to the kind of comedy that was woefully taken for granted in its heyday and now barely exists at all.

This The Naked Gun never tries to lampoon or merely copy the original beloved films. Instead, director Akiva Schaffer and his co-writers, Dan Gregor and Doug Mand, get to the heart of the humor in a non-ironic, non-revisionist fashion.

Neeson is a delight and seems to be having as much fun as the audience. But the surprise here is Anderson, who was sad and plaintive in “The Last Showgirl” and now reveals herself a skilled and self-aware comedienne. Anderson is having a moment right now, and I’d like to see it continue.

That stupid-smart mix of clunkers, wordplay, old-school set-ups, prop humor, and left-field ideas that the writers just couldn’t stop laughing at doesn’t inherently make for a comedy classic—especially as a late plot escalation draws attention to the dull sheen shining over much of the film—but it does prove how effective these films’ formula can be when followed properly.

There are maybe 20 minutes worth of jokes, sight-gags, slapstick bits and innuendo in those 85 minutes.

I laughed at the entirety of the movie. It was so hilarious almost every moment was a laugh fest. It was like the original trilogy, full of silly scenes and catchphrases. It's been a long time since a comedy film was as funny and silly as The Naked Gun esp. since the majority of comedy movies nowadays are not as funny as before. Also, Liam Neeson did surprisingly well as Frank Drebin Jr.

A lot of the humour is very naked gun and on point. Liam neeson himself does a great job and seeing Pamela on the big screen is a joy. I was quite taken aback by how fantastic she still looks. Unfortunately the plot itself seems like an afterthought. It's merely just a vehicle to support the gags. Completely unimaginative and dull. If more energy was put into actually making this a decent interesting movie instead of just a reel of gags then it may have worked. At just over 1 hour and 20 minutes long it's far too short.

I appreciate having a weird, random, silly slapstick comedy in 2025. Some of the jokes did get a genuine chuckle out of me.That said, it never quite rises to the level of a laugh-out-loud riot, and it doesn’t fully capture the magic of the original.Still, it’s worth a watch, if only for the sheer ridiculousness of seeing a bunch of kids get beat up.

This is one of the worst movies ever made. It's unfunny with cheap dialogue and bad jokes. It's a mix of fantasy, hero and failed comedy. Watching this film felt like a waste of money and time. Torture. It insults the original movies, which you can watch a thousand times without losing entertainment value. This is a trash film that offers even less than what you get from the trailer. What's wrong with movies these days? And why do some people enjoy this? That's concerning.

I'm sorry to have to say this, but the film's humor doesn't work. Even though it copies the situational, fourth-wall-breaking humor of the original trilogy one-for-one. Not for a single millisecond did a smile cross my face during the film, and I didn't understand why, even though everything should have worked: the chemistry between the two main characters, the cartoonish humor, but still, it didn't. Then I realized what the problem was: the medium. The fact that it wasn't shot on celluloid, the realism that achieved the cartoon-like dream world with practical effects is lost.
