Summary: Asbolutly Hilarious!
Review: This movie is the funniest ever made. Lesley Nielson does an excellent job as a clumbsy, absent minded cop. After one cop is shot 6 times, Lt. Frank Drebin sets out to catch the person responsible and learns that there is a plot to assasinate the queen at a baseball game. The thing that makes this movie so funny is that Frank doesn't realize he's doing things wrong, such as his urinating in the bahtroom being heard on national television or him causing his car to explode because of an out of control air bag. The gags and quotes are just to funny. Great movie, I suggest you see it.

Summary: A COP AS DANGEROUS AS THE CRIMINALS HE CHASES.
Review: "The Naked Gun" is a collection of jokes, every scene has something funny and most of the jokes still are enjoyable after 15 years. The main character, Lt. Frank Drebin, is the most clueless creature in the planet, but without a doubt he is a very charismatic character that helps to create very funny situations.The creative team ZAZ (David Zucker, Jim Abrahams, Jerry Zucker) wrote a screenplay filled with jokes and scenes ridiculously funny. From the title sequence (the police car sneaking in the most unimaginable places) to the final scene, you get the feeling that "The Naked Gun" is a very good comedy. Perhaps the most ironic and funny thing is that Frank Drebin never realizes all the accidents and disasters he provokes, and even though the danger is always following him, he is a very funny character. If you like comedy, you should see this one.

Summary: A Poignant Love Story
Review: Not since Tracy and Hepburn have I been so moved by a cinematic romance that tugs at the old ticker. Leslie Nielson as hardworking, nose-to-the-grindstone Lt. Frank Drebin teams up with Priscilla Presley for a hunk of burning love in David Zucker's epic, THE NAKED GUN. Presley plays Jane Spencer, who happens to be employed by evil Vincent Ludwig (Ricardo Montalban). Ludwig is the target of a criminal investigation led by Drebin--a ruthless, relentless investigation that tests the very limits of Drebin's endurance and competency--and the starry-eyed, ever innocent Jane finds herself falling head over heels. In love. But the budding romance is derailed. Sadly, tragically, Frank's job challenges Jane's loyalties to her boss. . .to her own fragile ability to keep calling Drebin "Funny Face." And after a golden, yet fleeting, romantic interlude--complete with mustard, ketchup, Hermit's Hermits and a "nice beaver" rejoinder--we witness a romantic showdown in an Anaheim baseball stadium that ultimately will decide the shadowy fate of these two tragic lovers. See THE NAKED GUN. You will laugh. You will cry. You will wonder if O.J. was driving a Bronco to and from the set. You will be astounded by the homeliness of British royalty. But most of all, you will be cheering for Frank and Jane, hoping beyond hope that their love will endure--at least until the next sequel.

Review: Leslie Nielsen is such a great actor, he really raises the whole film to another level by himself. His expressions and delivery are dead-on every single time. Silly stuff, but brilliantly done.

Summary: An All-Time Classic
Review: This film successfully transferred the short-lived TV series "Police Squad" to the big screen. It is simply hilarious. One of the reasons it works so well is the carefully crafted screenplay. Of course the "plot" is inconsequential, but it is to the filmmakers' credit that they managed to come up with a solid foundation upon which to pile on the gags. Many spoof-comedies simply take specific scenes from popular movies and parody them. If you haven't seen the films being sent-up, you might not get much out of it. But your enjoyment of The Naked Gun won't be based on your knowledge of specific films. The "Police Squad" series was a poker-faced parody of cop shows, and the Naked Gun movie remains firmly in that genre. The DVD does, in fact, present the movie in it's complete theatrical release. As some reviewers have pointed out, the network TV version includes several scenes not found on the dvd. These scenes are referenced during the commentary track and would've been nice to have on the dvd-- only as Deleted Scenes, not incorporated in the movie. The TV version is by no means a "director's cut", and the version of the film presented on this DVD is definitive.

Summary: One of the Best!
Review: Most people would pass this movie up because of it being an older one. However, It is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. And I just saw it for the first time only a few months ago. If you have ever seen Wrongfully Accused and liked it then you'll definatly like this. I'd have to say that this movie is the best out of the series. Although 2 1/2 comes close. If you get in moods to watch an "odd" type of movie, this is the one. Also, if you get sick of watching the same movie over and over again and laughing at the same thing, this gives you a new laugh! I surely recommend this to anyone who likes to laugh!

Summary: Won't Stand The Test Of Time...
Review: Michael Beusch's review is way, way off... even worse than the one where "Doctor Zhivago" got panned. "Sledge Hammer!" ran much longer than "Police Squad!" and garnered outsized critical acclaim because it wasn't just a plotless joke machine. Looking at "The Naked Gun" now, after the Zucker Abrams Zucker team has pretty much run their style of spoofing into the ground, demonstrates the inherent reason why Mel Brooks' films remain classics of cinema, not merely funny. "Young Frankenstein" features a plot, characterization and discipline. Leslie Nielsen was much funnier before he officially became a comedian. In "The Naked Gun" his deadpan style used in previous Zucker endeavors is replaced by incessant mugging. The humor isn't satirical, as in "Sledge Hammer!" which was commenting on violence and other current events, just mostly dumb. Several gags were lifted verbatim out of old "Get Smart!" episodes. No wonder the subsequent two sequels ended this particular film series. Like the small screen "Police Squad!" that was equally devoid of anything more than jokes, this is an extended sketch -- nothing more.

Summary: A Great
Review: In my opinion this is one of the greatest movies ever...those who like Christmas Vacation with Chevy Chase will like this movie. I was displease however when I noticed two short scenes were cut out (scratching the desk and shot in the umpires vest). Why I don't know, but if it was based on space, I'd rather have the FULL original movie than some dumb commentary...honestly, who actually watches them? All in all it really is a good movie, just wished they kept it together.
