Police Squad Lt. Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen) is retired and spending time with his new wife, Jane (Priscilla Presley), when he's called back into action by Capt. Ed Hocken (George Kennedy). A terrorist named Rocco (Fred Ward) plans to bomb the Academy Awards ceremony, so Frank goes undercover as Phil Donahue to try and head off disaster. He causes almost as much trouble as he prevents in an Oscar show complete with over-the-top production numbers and numerous celebrity appearances.

Critics Consensus

Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult can't help but be sporadically funny thanks to Leslie Nielsen's dependably solid work, but it's still a steep comedown from the original.

Chicago Reader

Silly enough to make you laugh sometimes in spite of yourself -- at least if you're feeling like a little boy.

The film's first-time director, Peter Segal, has adopted the series' style seamlessly.

Buffalo News

The latest installment in the sublime gag-a-minute series does to the Oscars what we'd all like to see done to them: turns them into a rich, aromatic stew of kitsch and calamity.

For the average quality of the gags, it's not worth the bother.

Released just one month before OJ Simpson absolutely didn’t kill his wife, this final installment in the series is still pretty decent because of the quick gags. Watched on DVD.

This movie is pure gold if you take it for what it is. It’s hits on all cylinders. Subjectively it should score much higher. It’s one of the best of its class.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Definitely not as good as the first two installments, and a step back from its superior sequel. However, there are a few original quips, and the movie parodies are funny. As usual, Leslie Nielsen and Priscilla Presley give the biggest push, although other cast members can be funny as well.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

In my opinion, the movie uses very good camera and audio visual equipment and the crew members and the filmmakers have played their roles very well. I really liked it.

For some reason the opening sequence made me laugh so hard. Other than that, more or less same amount of laughs as the previous movie.
