Critics Consensus

With Liam Neeson's gravelly gravitas proving to be a perfect fit for Frank Drebin's deadpan buffoonery, The Naked Gun revives the original trilogy's daffy sense of humor like it never went out of style.

Audience Says

Liam Neeson hits the mark as Drebin and The Naked Gun fires on all bawdy cylinders, dishing out a mandatory sentence on man’s laughter.

Akiva Schaffer’s police-procedural reboot is refreshingly silly and expertly paced, with Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson fully committing to the bit.

So what if some of the jokes would have been corny even back in the late 80s when the series was first released? The sheer volume of comic nonsense wears down any resistance.

It certainly felt good to laugh and bask in some absurdity.

2.5/4

The Naked Gun ’25 is a movie of many smiles, which just isn’t good enough when dealing with a franchise as explosively funny as this one.

Everything is Horrible (Substack)

The very fact that the movie has no actual moral commitment beyond the next punchline allows it to at least at times come closer to an actual critique of police and policing than virtually any other American film or television narrative.

2.5/5

Unfortunately director Akiva Schaffer and his team just didn't have what it takes to pull off such a Herculean task, with their effort falling flat both on the page and the screen with its unfunny material and in star Liam Neeson.

Pretty decent film, not as good as the original but I think it is actually trying to be respectful to the original unlike a lot of other remakes that have been coming out. Humor is nice, the characters are all enjoyable to watch, especially Liam Neeson. It is honestly just a fairly chill and fun film to watch at home.

It’s a ‘your girlfriend or wife will hate it’ type of funny!

I was not impressed. I thought Liam did a god job, but the plot didn’t hold my interest.
