The Naked Gun (2025)

My Review

“The Naked Gun” is a police comedy movie about a police officer who strives to be like his late cop father, even as he works to keep the police department from shutting down by solving an impossible case. Director Akiva Schaffer (“The Watch”2012) has done a good job by making a funny fourth film in “The Naked Gun” series (1988, 1991, 1994). Principal photography took place in Atlanta, Georgia.

The star Liam Neeson as Lt. Frank Drebin Jr. has excellent deadpan delivery to the corny jokes equal to his predecessor Leslie Nielson, who played Lt. Frank Drebin. Co-stars include Pamela Anderson, Danny Huston, Paul Walter Hauser, CCH Pounder, Kevin Durand, Liza Koshy, Eddie Yu, Weird Al Yankovic, and Priscilla Presley reprising her role as Mrs. Jane Drebin. The watchable “The Naked Gun” has been a success at the box office for producer Seth McFarland, Fuzzy Door Productions, and Paramount Pictures.
