Critic Reviews

Not quite up to Airplane! or Top Secret!, but there are still laughs aplenty.

-Jonathan RosenbaumFull Review

The Naked Gun is crass, broad, irreverent, wacky fun -- and absolutely hilarious from beginning to end.

-Variety StaffFull Review

High spirits may be all that a film like this really needs.

-Janet MaslinFull Review

The film is as transparent as a third-grader with a water gun, and yet I would rather review a new film by Ingmar Bergman, for there, at least, would be themes to discuss and visual strategies to analyze.

-Roger EbertFull Review

The Naked Gun is still very funny more than 20 years later. Leslie Nielsen is awesome, and the gags are more hit than miss.

-R. L. ShafferFull Review

It would have been nothing without Leslie Nielsen, but this was one of the funniest slapstick comedies of the 1980s.

-Wesley LovellFull Review

Bawdy, dumb-humor classic spoofs '80s cop dramas.

-Heather BoernerFull Review

...still a hilarious movie, and anyone with a funny bone in his body will probably find it amusing.

-John J. PuccioFull Review

Nielsen in particular is superb, cracking his facade for only the biggest of jokes.

-Jeffrey M. AndersonFull Review

The Naked Gun is a continuous stream of verbal and visual gags that come so fast, you don't have time to realize how bad/old/corny they are.

-Full Review

The endlessly tasteless juvenilia should make you ashamed of laughing yourself into a stupor.

-Geoff AndrewFull Review

A comedy classic.

-Bill Clark

Nielsen perfectly embodies Drebin with the kind of deadpan seriousness that's essential to making well-written one-liners and situations seem ten times as funny.

-Erik ChildressFull Review

One of the greatest comedies ever made. The laughs don't stop.

-Willie Waffle

Hi-larious. Shame about the sequels.

-Luke Y. Thompson

The jokes fly fast and furious, mostly holding up decades later.

-Edward Havens

Absolutely hysterical!

-Alex Sandell

A film like this is all about the comedy. The story is just an excuse to try and make you laugh the loudest they can. And it works!

-Kevin N. LaforestFull Review

Always hysterical, no matter how much you watch it!

-Michael Szymanski

Despite all the outrageous comedy and raunchy bathroom jokes, [the Zuckers] create endearing characters that are likable.

-James KendrickFull Review

It's excruciatingly rotten in every sense: not funny, not comical, not entertaining, not even fun to look at.

-David KeyesFull Review

[A] misfire.
