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.

Michael H. Price

Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com

...[Naked Gun 33 1/3] is as rewardingly silly as the series' opening shots, and more slickly assembled. The gags hit hard and fast, and all concerned seem to be enjoying the pratfalls.

Rated: 7/10

Sight & Sound

Ultimately, with the arrival of young contenders Wayne and Garth on the TV-turned-to-film-satire scene, Drebin might as well stick to his retirement plans.

Naked Gun 33 1/3 is not wildly funny, but like a dose of the salts, it does what it's supposed to.

Flint Journal

There is little point and no greater good served by this flick. The bottom line in judging movies like this is answering the question, "Did you laugh?" The answer is "Yes, a whole lot." Eventually.

Rated: 3/4

...Naked Gun 33-1/3 exceeds its two predecessors in its layering of asinine, diabolically clever gags, its parodying of countless films and film genres, and its relentless lampooning of macho idiocy.

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.

Rated: 4/5

La película incluye referencias a Star Wars: Episodio 4 y Jurassic Park. Es chistosa, aunque me hubiera gustado que tuviera otro nombre.

Nowadays, these old and more than sometimes forgotten movies are better than everything after the 21th century.

It has it's moments, but there is a significant step down in quality compared to the first 2.

There are so many laughs in this one that you can forgive the occasional misfire. Outside of OJ Simpson, who sucked in all of them, the casting is great. Nielsen is a legend and he delivers as usual. I think this is more than worthy of being compared to previous chapters in series, in fact, this is my favorite.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

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.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
