Comedy that parodies all cop movies clichés you could possibly think of and then some more already promises good entertainment. And when you add Leslie Nielsen on top of that...7,5/10

I saw The Naked Gun before 1994 and even now it is a fine comedy, definitely top class in hilarity. I know, I know, there's the specter of O.J. Simpson, but unless all his scenes should be deleted (would that be breaching the First Amendment perhaps? I'd have to ask a constitutional lawyer), the movie is still a fine comedy. But I can appreciate if this tarnishes the movie.There are so many laugh-out-loud moments, starting from the opening scene where Frank Drebin (Leslie "The Poseidon Adventure" Nielsen) battles the Axis of Evil and then some, even rubbing off the birthmark off Mikhail Gorbachev's head ("I knew it!!!").I heard there may be a reboot of The Naked Gun, and it would be interesting to see who is cast.

A perfect example of humor taken to the utmost extent, Leslie Nielsen does what no other actor could have with a role whose only job is, quite literally, to make Priscilla Presley, and OJ Simpson, The Naked Gun is a comedy success that will continue to keep audiences rolling for years. As Lt. Frank Drebin, Nielson falls into the case of a lifetime when his friend Nordberg (OJ Simpson), is severely injured in a police raid gone bad and information surfaces that there may be an assassination attempt against the visiting queen of England. From that point on, this movie contains classic elements of perseverance, adventure, and true love, but uses them all to produce a satire on police life and life in general. There will be many who don't particularly for this movies brand of humor, but The Naked Gun isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

What can I say, this is a classic comedy of the 80's that it is the feature film adaptation of the cult TV series Police Squad!. I love this flick to death and it is my number 1 comedy. Every time I watch this action comedy flick, I keep laughing. The film features fast-paced slapstick comedy, including many visual and verbal puns and gags. The first film of The Naked Gun is the best one of the trilogy ever made, it impossible not to laugh. The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988) is the feature film adaptation of the cult TV series Police Squad!. Leslie Nielsen reprises his role as the bumbling Lt. Frank Drebin. The film's cast included George Kennedy, O.J. Simpson, Priscilla Presley, and Ricardo Montalban. The film was written and directed by the same team who made the original Airplane! and two sequels would follow: The Naked Gun 2 1/2: The Smell of Fear and The Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult. This film is funny as hell and it is a classic I love The Naked Gun to death! They don't make comedy's like this one anymore! I want to see a comedy like is this film today. Naked Guns are actually one of my favorite trilogy of all times, I love all three movies. They are just fun harmless movies to watch on Saturday or any day you want to see them. "Yes. Well, when I see 5 weirdos dressed in togas stabbing a guy in the middle of the park in full view of 100 people, I shoot the bastards. That's *my* policy." Plot: Those screw-loose creators of Airplane have done it again in this police-show parody. Police Squad's own granite-jawed, rock-brained cop, Frank Drebin, bumbles across a mind-control scheme to assassinate Queen Elizabeth. Priscilla Presley, O. J. Simpson, a stuffed beaver, two baseball teams and an odd assortment of others join the wacko goings-on and blow the laugh-o-meter to smithereens. This movie is what it is, a perfect 10, because it takes the vision of one of the most imaginative directors and writers on Earth, and realizes them almost perfectly with all the tools that fit the task -- actors, stunts, puppetry, models and effects. Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams David Zucker from Airplane and Top Secret! they created a beautiful comedy of all time. This was the second film in the trilogy I saw it, The Naked Gun 2 1/2: The Smell of Fear (1991) was the first movie I ever saw as a kid and it become my favorite film, that was before I saw this one. I love The Naked Gun 2 1/2 but this one Is my number one favorite comedy in the naked gun trilogy including genre of comedy's. This is a parody film that also combine element from Dirty Harry films. I remember watching Police Squad! as a kid I haven't seen all episodes and the show was canceled after six episodes and that was all. Someday I might going to re watch them, but still rather watch the feature film because it has so much humor in it. Specially the baseball game I am not American so I am not a baseball fab, but this film was made before Major League (1989)with Tom Berenger and Charlie Sheen was made. I absolutely love the song I Love L.A. by Randy Newman. Leslie Nielsen as clumsy Frank Drebin was awesome and this was his best performance in a movie ever. You also have a lot of shootings, like Frank shoots on his car, when his own car try's to run him down he he. He chases a doctor who was hypnotized to kill Nordberg (O.J. Simpson) in the hospital you have a car chases. You have a fight scenes in the beginning of the movie which are fun, the film is very entertaining, fast paced and funny as hell. Ira Newborn did a perfect score for The Naked Gun theme. Director David Zucker did a wonderful job directing the film and the writers did a wonderful jobs. Overall I am given The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! a perfect 10 you have a beautiful cast a lot's of comedy and beautiful baseball game and a lot's of funny actions. I love this comedy flick to death. The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! is a 1988 American comedy film. The film stars Leslie Nielsen as the bumbling police lieutenant Frank Drebin.
