Una pallottola spuntata

While not 100% capturing the true spirit of the original films, this movie does a great job at getting really close to it. Liam Neeson has performed above expectations in my opinion, and the movie flows well from start to finish. If you were a fan of the original three movies, I would recommend you take a look at this one as well - I can assure you that you will have a good laugh in the cinema.

Very rarely do you see a remake/reboot succeed in film. They may make a lot of money but they almost always fail to capture the same energy and passion as the originals. Most reboots are made for the express purpose of making you the audience remember the fun times of the original and purely serve to be nostalgia bait. This movie is not that.

It's pretty damn impressive the way the creators of this movie managed to capture the energy and tone of the original naked gun films to a tee. Without nostalgia baiting (while there are some fun callbacks) this movie stands on its own. To be a funny spoof movie in the classic vain of the Zuckers, one thing is the most important: Clever writing. You can't do a spoof movie like this without having constant bits and clever puns. These guys delivered. They came ready with tons of clever gaffs, sight gags, and quick puns that keep the audience waiting for the next joke. Couldn't nail the energy of a Zucker comedy better.

Casting was perfect. Pamela Anderson was a standout for sure. Liam Neeson was also the perfect person to play Frank Drebin Jr.

Overall incredibly funny movie that simultaneously pays homage to the original while also providing its own worth in comedy. Stellar job from this whole team.

If you're a fan of the original Naked Gun movies you will thoroughly enjoy this.

What a pleasant surprise that movie was. It really brought back the humour and the spirit of the old movies while still bringing its own fresh flair to it. Not every joke might land but there are so many of them in the movie and most of them worked for me. It has been a while since I saw a movie so eager to make you laugh.

There were so many types of gags and different styles of humor that it felt like a mash-up of classic comedies with a modern look. Some parts felt Naked Gun (obviously), but others felt Monty Python or Austin Powers. I thought this would suck but it just made me smile the whole time. There was about a 20 minute stretch in the middle of the film where I didn't stop laughing. The absurdism is on point and jokes don't overstay their welcome.

I got just about what I expected-but I was hoping for a miracle. And a miracle could have happened if they had stayed true to the spirit of the original films. The originals are a parody of classic noir/detective cinema, with Leslie Nielsen as Frank Drebin doing absurd things with a completely straight face-just like Peter Sellers did a few years earlier in The Pink Panther.

Even though everything around them is parodic (as are their actions), they themselves remain serious characters and see themselves that way. In this film, though, they let that go. They threw in a bunch of anarchic humor and unintelligent stunts-clearly, in my view, aiming to attract a younger audience.

And that audience seemed to enjoy the film quite a bit. We older fans, on the other hand, swallowed the lump in our throats and took some comfort in the solid performances of our beloved aging stars, consoling ourselves that it turned out relatively well.
