The Naked Gun
Description
Leslie Neilson cemented himself as one of the comedy greats with his roles in classics such as 'Airplane' and 'The Naked Gun', packed with timeless gags and quotable lines. Thankfully, the same can be said for this new sequel/legacy sequel starring Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson - because boy, is this a blast from start to finish.
Sure, not every joke will land, but for every small chuckle, comes a huge belly laugh with some outrageously funny jokes and sight gags courtesy of Neeson and Anderson. There is a charm within thanks to these characters being well played, coming across serious in a very un-serious film that's sole purpose is to make its audience laugh - and it works excellently.
'The Naked Gun' is one of 2025’s best films, as well one of the best legacy sequels that Hollywood has delivered. In a time where the world is going to shit, we could all do with a laugh - and 'The Naked Gun' delivers just that.
