Jorge R @jlrtechno Jul 7 The Naked Gun 2 1/2: The Smell Of Fear is Funny and awesome at the same time just like his predecessor, highly enjoyable. 😆 See more Diego P @Sakuta01003 Jun 20 A classic no matter how many times I see it. See more Blake- N @PBSAniDom Apr 21 The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear (1991) is a fantastic follow-up that keeps the same chaotic, fast-paced comedy style that made the first film so great. It fully embraces absurdity and commits to the nonstop gag-driven humor that defines the series, rarely letting up long enough for you to catch your breath. The jokes come at a rapid-fire pace, mixing visual gags, wordplay, and ridiculous slapstick in a way that feels effortless. Even when some jokes don’t land as strongly, there are always several more right behind them that do. The film also does a great job of escalating situations into complete nonsense while still keeping a loose sense of narrative. Like the original, it works best when you just go along with the madness instead of questioning it. Overall, it’s just as funny, just as silly, and just as rewatchable as the first film. A strong 9/10. See more Adam K @AK8144 Feb 22 Not as good as the first Naked Gun film, because it was not the first, but still really fun and Leslie Nielsen is a legend. See more Wyatt C. @timewizard12 Feb 16 I think this movie has lots of funny moments to it. The start is pretty good, but it does not have as good of a start as the first movie. The middle of the movie has some absurd jokes that sort of hurt the movie for me. Then ending is not great, because of some weird jokes. These jokes at the end do not move the plot forward, but the old movie did not have those problems at the end. They still manage to have some funny jokes at the end of movie. Leslie Nielsen does a great job, but the script they made for him did not make the best movie. His own skills increase the humor in the the movie significantly. I would give it a 6.5 out of 10, because the plot is affected by some weird jokes ( these jokes are in the middle of the movie, and the end of the movie). See more Tyler S @tylerking24 Dec 3 I feel basically the exact same after the first one. Again, Nielsen absolutely carries. Overall though, the plot just makes a tiny bit more sense. Still plenty of flaws, but it is funny. See more Read all reviews
