Intro: After watching "Scary Movie 3", another movie with Pamela Anderson in it and connected to Leslie Nielsen.
Film 2397: "The Naked Gun" (2025), Akiva Schaffer
Watched: At the movies
Language: English
Watched with: no one
Thoughts: Critics were enthusiastic and the movie was doing well at the box-office over in America, so I really, really didn't want to miss this one. Not to mention that it represented another good outing for Pamela Anderson, on her way to her career resurgence (so happy for her!). So I rushed to the movies to see this new "The Naked Gun" movie. And yeah, it was good.
I'll be honest, it wasn't the masterpiece that most of the reviews were making it out to be, but still quite the fun ride and I appreciated that the humor here is absolutely in tune with that of the previous movies. Also, although it's a strange casting decision, Liam Neeson definitely does a good job as the main character (and son Frank Drebin, played by Leslie Nielsen in the original films). Pamela Anderson is definitely a great surprise, funny and perfectly fitted for this universe.
Overall a good, funny movie and, at least to me, a respectful tribute to the original work.
Cast: Liam Neeson, Pamela Anderson, Paul Walter Hauser, Kevin Durand, CCH Pounder, Busta Rhymes, Priscilla Presley, Danny Huston.
Box Office: $102.1 million
Worth a watch?: If you enjoy crazy, funny over-the-top humor, this new "The Naked Gun" is definitely a movie to watch. I had a great time (and some of the jokes are hilarious).
Awards: /
Key word: New Year's Eve.
