FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/the-naked-gun-movie-review-making-people-laugh-is-still-a-noble-cinematic-goal/
"The Naked Gun is a triumphant return to a kind of comedy that’s on the verge of extinction. It’s a love letter to a subgenre often dismissed, yet one that, when done right, can provoke genuine, infectious laughter like few others.
Liam Neeson leads a cast fully committed to the silliness, with a script that honors the legacy of one of the most beloved comedy franchises of the 20th century. For longtime fans, I imagine it’s a nostalgic and comforting trip down memory lane. For newcomers like me, it’s the perfect gateway into the world of Frank Drebin (Jr.).
A simple, light, and above all, tremendously funny film – exactly what cinema should also be."
Rating: A-
