The Naked Gun has made a big splash in Hollywood, earning a rare 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics and audiences alike are calling it the funniest movie of the decade, and a major win for the classic slapstick comedy genre.
Directed by Akiva Schaffer of The Lonely Island, the film brings fresh energy to the famous Naked Gun franchise. Instead of relying only on nostalgia, the movie introduces new jokes, clever wordplay, and silly action scenes that keep viewers laughing from start to finish.
Liam Neeson stars as Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., the son of Leslie Nielsen’s original character. In the movie, Drebin investigates a case involving a stolen high-tech device called “P.L.O.T.” As expected, chaos follows him everywhere. The story skips the usual backstory and jumps right into the action.
Neeson, known for serious roles in movies like Taken, has surprised many with his strong comedic performance. Critics say this may be the funniest role of his career. He is joined by Pamela Anderson as Beth Davenport, Drebin’s love interest, and Danny Huston as the villain, a shady tech billionaire.
The cast also includes Paul Walter Hauser, Kevin Durand, and CCH Pounder, who add to the film’s over-the-top style. The movie makes fun of everything from tech billionaires to macho heroes—without going too far. It keeps things light and fun with a PG-13 rating, a rare choice for modern comedies.
At just under 100 minutes, the movie moves fast and stays entertaining throughout. The visuals are bright, the editing is sharp, and fans say they’re already looking forward to watching it again.
With its early success, The Naked Gun may spark a new wave of big-screen comedies. A sequel already seems likely, as the film shows strong box office promise and wide appeal.
More than just a reboot, The Naked Gun proves that smart, silly comedy still has a place in theaters—and that laughter is something we can all share.
