Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Ella-May O'Brien
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Billy Ollie
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Eric Stevenson
This is the last film in the "Naked Gun" series, the original of which was one of the best comedies I saw in my whole life. I am starting to miss Leslie Nielsen and it's sad that he was in so many awful movies in his later life like "Mr. Magoo", the first film I ever saw that I sincerely hated. At least he got some great ones under his belt. While not as good as the original, this was better than "Airplane II: The Sequel". It's great to have the most famous actor back. It does take awhile to get good, but we do get a great finale eventually. As usual, we get joke after joke most of which are good. It is weird watching this as it's probably the last time we ever saw O. J. Simpson before his infamous trial. I could just go on all day about the best jokes. My favorite might have been when James Earl Jones said one of the films nominated for Best Picture did poorly at the box office. Drebin (Nielsen) finds out that the Best Picture envelope has the literal bomb and says, "It's the bomb!" causing the crowd to cheer. It's great we get some characters annoyed by the wacky antics too. ***

Lt. Drebin and Nordberg are at it again. This film makes fun of every police and prison movie ever made not to mention "Thelma and Louise" and the "Crying Game" (20 years before it was even made!) It's got it all: Love scenes, "precious bodily fluid" and crotch jokes, self-abuse, transsexuals and the infamous "gumball" opening titles. Like "Blazing Saddles", this will truly insult everyone. Lt. Drebin has become "Mr. Mom" to his lawyer wife Jane (Priscilla Presley) and he must come out of retirement to help the Police Squad foil another terrorist act by the evil "Pap Schmear". As before, the bumbling Drebin uncovers a terrible plot; to blow up everyone at the Academy Awards. Not exactly an original idea. A ton of actual celebrities, including Vanna White, Pia Zadora, Weird Al, Rachel Welsh and Mary Lou Retton. Anna Nicole Smith plays the mobster's gun moll to the hilt, with a bit of "something extra". Stereotypes of "Ma Barker" and "James Cagney" as well. No, that isn't Arthur Fiedler conducting, but it sure looks like him. Very funny but very uneven. In order to enjoy this parody, you have to separate the "Nordberg" character from O.J. Simpson, especially with the delivery room ending! There is not enough for George Kennedy and the bumbling Police Squad to do. It's mostly Frank on his own. Great backstage stunt work at the end, as Drebin and the bad guy "fly" up to the top of the stage catwalk rigging via the curtain counterweights and ropes. Only 82 minutes but worth it! Probably rated "R" for content.

Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult is a hilarious movie with a decent storyline and yet again another brilliant and comedic performance from Leslie Nielsen as Frank Drebin.Its definitely not as good as the outstanding first Naked Gun,one of the funniest comedies ever made in my opinion,but I thought it was an improvement from the first Naked Gun,I thought there was a lot more hilarious scenes in this one and I really enjoyed the scenes at the Academy Awards towards the end of the movie.Some people may disagree,but I think this Naked Gun is an improvement over the second one and fans of the first won't enjoy it as much,but they will laugh a lot.Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen) must convince a gang that he is also a criminal in order to stop a bomb from being set off at the Academy Awards.

Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen) comes out of retirement to help Police Squad infiltrate a gang of terrorists planning to detonate a bomb at the Academy Awards.An excellent spoof on police and prison movies... with plenty of visual gags, quirky remarks (like the midget at the urinal). If you did not think that OJ Simpson was a funny guy, you need to see him in this role... wow, such a great actor! What can I say? Just a good, fun comedy... so sad we have lost Nielsen and Anna Nicole Smith... and OJ Simpson, sort of. At least we still have Mary Lou Retton, I guess.
