It's an entertaining film. Not a laughing gas but has mediocre humor. It's neither a must watch film nor a don't watch film. You can watch it on a bad day or on a train way home or while waiting for someone, you don't even need full attention. Just watch it on the go.

Netflix is casting its net very wide by agreeing to distribute this film and appeal to all audiences. I didn't find this film too bad. It is an easy watch during the holidays as we need a mindless and simple film now and then. Put it this way if you watched Interstellar and Tenet recently or in the same week you'd benefit from giving your brain a rest by watching this. Its funny quirky and quite silly but not worth any hate at the same time.
It's not original (yes Groundhog was there before ... time and time again) and it is kind of juvenille when it comes to humor. Still while it's not laugh out loud funny, this is an improvement to those other comedies we've seen lately from Marlon. While that may not mean anything to some people, some others may appreciate it.
Leaving it up to you to decide. There is no sound explanation as to why this is happening, but why bother? It's not like most viewers will care. Those who are taken by the story will not ask for it, those who don't like the jokes will ask for it, but wouldn't be satisfied no matter what the answer is. Some neat cameos, some interesting ideas and a "social" message are included ...

"Naked" is a lazy rip-off a time-loop movie, not only of "Groundhog Day" (1993), the gold standard of the genre, but it's also an English-language remake of the Swedish version "Naken" (2000), which I haven't seen but also doesn't appear to be held in high regard. "Source Code" (2011), "Edge of Tomorrow" (2014), "Happy Death Day" (2017), the "Russian Doll" series, and "Palm Springs" (2020) have all done interesting things with this specific time-travel concept, including doing better than "Naked" the whodunnit of a crime ("Source Code" and "Happy Death Day") and an improved rom-com ("Groundhog Day" and "Palm Springs," heck even "The Map of Tiny Perfect Things" (2021)). So, what's supposed to be special about this one? Not that its comedy relies on a man's butt, as it's a remake of that, but that it specifically relies on the supposed humor of the backside and crotch-holding front of Marlon Wayans. The extent to which his repeatedly waking up undressed in an elevator is amusing is very slight.
Yet, even that's preferable to the latter half of the picture that turns to the sentimental garbage of him trying to become a better husband-to-be as he races to get dressed and prepared, hour-upon-the-same-hour, for his wedding. The cosmic punishment of it doesn't even fit as well as it did Bill Murray's Phil Connors, who although he may've been amusing to view from the outside would likely be an unpleasant egocentric to be near. Wayans's Rob, however, is a nice guy who is the victim of a crime. Maybe he's unreliable and has a problem with purchasing lottery tickets, but big whoop--is the moral here really that one must get a full-time job and perform a supposedly-perfect wedding. I just reviewed the latest déjà vu burger "The Map of Tiny Perfect Things," too, where I complained that it lacked any of the manifold compelling manifestations of the concept, including cinematic and video-game reflexivity, intriguing genre twists and philosophical musings. "Naked" is even worse.
At least the newer movie features the characters taking some time from their infinite supply of it to more-fully explore their surroundings and have some fun and maybe even learn maths, and at least it's relatively consistent in its repetition. I mean, where does that third security guard at the hotel come from? Why wasn't he in prior naked landings? Is this reverse "Russian Doll" where the world is becoming more complete the more it's repeated? Why are all the interactions with the maid of honor with the groom? Does the bride not have friends? Is she a character or merely a goal for the hero's quest? What happened to the pigeons flying into the church? Maybe if "Naked" were consistently funny, none of this would much matter, but it isn't.

First off, don't read the negative reviews. Watch this movie with an open mind and just enjoy it. Good movie
Naked is a movie about a guy with a little touch of the cold feet and he is forced to live his final moments before walking down the aisle over and over until he can get it right. A simple story but it's creative and also has a nice message at the end. Did I forget to mention it's full of laughs too.
Naked is a good movie, lots of laughs. Some might compare it to "Groundhogs Day" but that's not the case at all, two totally different movies. Marlon Wayans is awesome as the lead and he's solidified himself as a lead actor once again. The supporting cast is just perfect. Regina Hall plays her part and the chemistry between Marlon and her is perfect. Dennis Haysbert as the father in law was just hilarious and Loretta Devine as the mother in the law. Perfect casting in my opinion. Brian McKnight was a nice touch also.
Naked had a good story line. It's not amazing but it was creative and very entertaining. That's why we watch movies right? To be entertained. It's a Netflix movie, nobody is making you spend 20$ at the movies to see it. If you don't want to watch it than turn on Hulu but if your a Marlon Wayans fan get the popcorn out and prepare to laugh. All around good movie in my opinion and definitely worth watching.
I really don't understand you couch critics, you take every chance you get to criticize and put down a piece of art. That's what all movies are "art" and you either enjoy it or don't look at it but we don't have to come online and trash the art because it's not your cup of tea. I honestly wonder what the reviews would have been like if the movie starred Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis with Ed Sheeran singing in it and Flo from progressive being an evil mother in law.

This is a very well made movie in a cliche' genre and of the type of plot you either make it or break it ....
and the director and crew have been quite successful at not ruining it ... in fact, less than a quarter an hour into the movie just as i was thinking 'do i really want to continue watching this?' i just forgot about what i thought and was nearly hooked until the very end ... it's not easy to to have so many repeated scenes without boring the audience really ... good job!

A really mediocre movie. Not very original and steals a lot from Groundhog day. Watch the original- with the same name- but translated into Swedish- "Naken"- to see a movie that is much more funny and really a personal favorite. The original tells a story while this barely shows or leads to anything.

Yes, we've seen it all before. The endless repeating Groundhog Day where the protagonist has 24hrs to solve the worlds ills. Only in this case he doesn't have the day, no, he has a whole groundhog hour to rectify his loser like tendencies and marry his sweetheart on time. This is a supposed comedy starring Marlon Wayans as substitute teacher, eternal child and commitment-phobe.... yadda yadda yadda..... I actually fell asleep watching this but guessed almost line for line what happened, then wasted even more time rewinding this terrible film just to prove myself right. Wayans wakes up naked in an elevator on his wedding day but just can't seem to get to the church before the day starts again. Wayans is a nice guy I'm sure, but this film is anything but. It's predictable and a little boring. I didn't laugh once and the only thing I was interested in seeing was the end credits. Save yourself a couple of hours and do something more interesting. Like watching paint dry, counting sheep and looking at clouds

Not to be confused with the bleak British drama of the same name, Naked is a Wayans Netflix original movie and oddly enjoyable.
I'll be honest I assumed it would be the pits, Netflix doesn't have the best record with comedies and Wayans hasn't made a decent movie in a fair long while.
Naked embraces a plot type that I enjoy, namely the time loop. Seen in the likes of Groundhog Day (1993), the Happy Deathday franchise and the recent television series Russian Doll (2019) I always find it rather intriguing.
Here we see a man wake up on his wedding day in a broken down hotel elevator, stark naked. Everytime the church bells sound he returns to the same spot and is forced to relive the same period of time again. You know the drill, with each loop he learns more and more and gets closer to achieving his goal.
Here they did a fantastic job with the concept and the balance between comedy and a competent storyline. I laughed, I cheered and I walked away happy.
Naked does exactly what it sets out to do, bravo Netflix.
The Good:
Some real laughs
Heartwarming feel good film
Makes great use of its concept
Solid cast
The Bad:
A couple of jokes are cringe inducing

I'm so sorry to see that Marlon, once again, end up in a bad movie... I'm sure he is a talented actor...if he gets the chance (but then he has to stop producing his own movies and be more aware of the directors).
The acting is not great, but I really believe that it could have been good (even though it's basically just a remake of Groundhog Day). The movie is not good... There is no substance, surprises or great scenes, and I truly believe it's the producers and directors fault, and not so much the actors.
I am very surprised that this is a Netflix production...

The acting was really horrible. It was like he was reading a prompter without being believable at all. Looked more like a video description of a stand-up comic explaining a joke. Only thing positive is maybe director of photography. But does it matter if everything else doesn't want you to continue watching this movie and ask part of your life back. Why did Netflix advertise this, it's not up their standards at all.

Poor acting, poor script and essentially a copy of groundhogs day, but an African American lead.
I'd would recommend that everyone avoids this movie.
I've never felt the need to post on IMDb before, but this was so bad I've made an exception.
I think I've done my good duty today by saving possibly thousands of people 2 hours of their lives.
I'm a little surprised Netflix sponsored this actually, they are mostly great. I think I know the reason, but I'll let everyone else make their own mind up.

I am very interested in the subject of time travel / time loops. So I watched the movie even though I read so many bad review and the low vote. In the end i enjoyed it, OK it is not super funny, it is not original at all, but I found it entertaining. I would rate it 6.5, a standard Netflix movie.
As a Netflix production this is a terrible movie. I've never had the need to sign up for an account on IMDb as much as this before, just to give a quick review so everyone can avoid this movie. The acting on the main character was not bad, but the storyline is terrible, from beginning to end. I'm not sure why I stayed on to watch this but it couldn't have been worse.

This is my first time writing a review but I was compelled when I saw the negative reviews of this film. Usually, films like these are reviewed with a higher regard when the characters are Caucasian.
If you switch the actors to Ryan Reynold and Margot Robbie, I believe the same people that hated Marlon's version, would love that version.
I look at the script first. It was a light hearted fun movie. A great movie to get stoned and enjoy a Friday night at home. The acting was no different than if the races were reversed.
I think people are brainwashed to view films with people that they are told should be a certain way. WAS it Oscar Worthy? No. But it is what it is. I wish we all can find that childlike energy that is within us and just let go and be free. I miss the 80's.

You must be veery bored to watch this film.
Just another lousy replica of the "Groundhog Day", where someone is trapped it a time loop and has to "find love' and change himself to "someone better".
I really believe that it could have been good. but it's not.

This film tells the story of a man who wakes up in an elevator naked, on his wedding day.
It is a very funny film. I like the fact that he has ample opportunities to get everything right! Life sometimes does not give second chances, but in here it offers hope and second chances. It is incredibly sweet and romantic as well. I really enjoyed it.
