Pros: Many, many, many, many jokes... Cons: I suppose it would have been nice if OJ had more lines...
My favorite comedy of all time is Airplane!. I would say that my second favorite comedy of all time is The Naked Gun. This movie mixes great lines, great humor, scattered slapstick, and even a funny story together to come up with hundreds ...
Pros: clever, fun Cons: repetitive gags, about half the jokes hit home
The Naked Gun - From the Files of Police Squad! is a spoof of the Quinn Martin cop dramas that dominated television for two decades. I wasn't alive when the great QM produced the Fugitive (1963), but I must have heard "A Quinn Martin Production" ...
Pros: A goofy, well-written comedy that helped create useful rules for good satire ever since. Cons: Not that it always followed those rules....
To argue that 1988s the Naked Gun was a landmark in the history of satire would be a slight exaggeration. For one thing, no it wasnt. For another, it wasnt even that influential in the career of its writing/directing team of Jim ...
Pros: Great jokes and a lot of fun Cons: Not much of a plot
There are several classic movies that should be a part of every persons DVD collection. Youve got to have The Godfather Collection, Pulp Fiction and the Lord Of The Rings. However, there are many classic films that arent award winners, but...
Pros: Hilarious rapid-fire, screwball humor. Clever and witty direction and writing. Cons: DVD should have contained the added scenes sometimes shown on TV.
This first film in an eventual trilogy, brought to us by the Zucker brothers (makers of Airplane! and Top Secret!) is truly one of the funniest films ever made. The comedy here is non-stop, based on slapstick, sight gags, wordplay, and screwball antics....
Pros: Hilarious spoof of classic movie detectives and film noir. Cons: Not all jokes hit the mark.
The Naked Gun is one of those movies that sound lame on paper. But when actually viewed on a screen, it works perfectly. One of those "You have to be there" situations, if you will. The humor contained in the film is unsubtle, corny, predictable and...
Global opinion
------------------
One of the best comedies ever done. The best Leslie Nielsen’s film I ever seen (in his funniest role, of course, I can’t forget his “forbidden planet”).
A non-stop jokes film. As said on the Dvd cover...
Pros: Original, laugh out loud, hilarious stuff. Cons: Some sight gags were a little over the top.
This movie was my favorite comedy for a long time. It sprouted out of the TV show, Police Squad. Ever since the show bombed and got canceled (epinions spell checker told me to put one l, but I thought it was 2), I’ve looked to this movie as consolation....
Oscars don't make the movie, the movie is what it is. And this movie is hilarious. It kept me chuckling the whole way through. It's a very silly movie. Not the kind of movie where someone would say "Oh yeah right!". This just isn't that kind of...
Pros: the high point of OJ Simpson's film career Cons: the high point of OJ Simpson's film career
The Naked Gun movie is an absolute film classic. It gets its' origins from a television show called "Police Squad". Unfortunately, the TV series only lasted six episodes. The good news is that someone had the foresight to make a movie based on these...
Pros: good actors in a silly movie Cons: not really suitable for kids
The Naked Gun, to the best of my knowledge, never won any film awards. I know for certain that it didn't win an Academy Award or Golden Globe. Moreover, it wasn't shown at the Cannes Film Festival, or similar types in Rome, Sydney or London....
Pros: rewatchability! the perfect comedy Cons: none
Usually if you ask someone what their favorite movie of all time is, you will get answers like CASABLANCA, MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET, and so on. Well, my favorite is the all-time comedy classic THE NAKED GUN.
Pros: A non-stop ride of bad puns, jokes, and physical comedy Cons: Puns, by now, may be a little old (so hopefully you've forgotten them)
I saw "The Naked Gun" ten (yikes) years ago and have not laughed as hard since. It's kind of sad really, but it only proves to me that this is one of the funniest movies of all time. Most of America, I'm sure, by now has seen this...
Who doesn't enjoy The Naked Gun or it's two other movies; 2 1/2 and 33 1/3? If you are a comedy fan like me, you have to like it because there are so many different things to laugh at. The best part about Naked Gun is there is actually a decently...
