Critics Consensus: With Liam Neeson's gravelly gravitas proving to be a perfect fit for Frank Drebin's deadpan buffoonery, The Naked Gun revives the original trilogy's daffy sense of humor like it never went out of style.

Haven’t laughed this hard in ages. The windshield gag floored me. Such a great film.
Huh a little lower than I expected. I could see this getting a B+, which is what naked gun 2 & 3 got. The humor prob is an acquired taste
I’m surprised it’s not higher.
My theater was full of literally all ages, male and female.
We were all having an absolute blast.
My favorite bit was him making a bit of an effort to put on his glove at the crime scene just to pick it up with the exposed hand.
Also.
Cane: Lieutenant Drebbin. *nods, shakes hands*.
Drebbin: Hey! Me too!
