The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988)

Movie Reviews (part 6) (50 movies items)

" The Ups: It manage to be better than the TV show that it was based upon and has some great gags. Leslie Nielsen's best comedic role. Good supporting cast. The Downs: Boring resolution at a baseball match. "

"The endlessly tasteless juvenilia should make you ashamed of laughing yourself into a stupor. - Geoff Andrew, Time Out"

{--Parody Films--} (10 movies items)

" Naked Gun borrowed heavily from the lead of many of the films that preceded it, but most were ensemble affairs. Naked Gun, on the other hand, works because Nielsen is just so good. "

"O.J. Simpson's cameo steals the show, but Leslie Nielson's buffoon detective carries the Airplane continuation to new comedic heights."

"14.2, TV, Rewatch ***½ -- *** Ihan viihdyttävää ajankulua edelleenkin, vaikka nähty sen miljoona kertaa. Suurin osa vitseistä on jo häivettyneitä ja ennen kunnolla naurattaneet jutut saavat lähinnä vain hymyn huulille, tosin tällä kertaa se riitti pelastamaan illan."

"13.02. TV, ?th viewing DIRECTED BY David Zucker I think I've seen this too many times because it's starting to get a little tiring for me. Of course it's still got its share of brilliant, ageless moments like the bribing scene at the pier, "bingo!", the shooting of Nordberg in the beginning and the fantastic film noir parodying metaphors Frank Drebin makes. But yeah, all of the baseball sequence, for example, is pretty unexciting to me by now. "

“Oh my, where do I start with this film. Okay, when I was first introduced to this film, I thought a "typical police spoof", which yeah...it was, but it was actually funny, and I laughed like hell throughout it, and that's all I ask in a comedy; to do what it promises. At the time, I hadn't seen Police Squad the television series, well, I wish I had. I wish I'd have found this entertaining film and the series years before, but I guess all in good time, it seems.

Leslie Nielson plays the hilarious, danger-prone Lieutenant Frank Drebin, he does a spectacular job at doing so. He is indeed the best character, which is exactly the reason he is the main one.
