The best of the bad sequels

This movie doesn't pretend to be anything other than a sequel. It doesn't pretend to be a serious movie. For that I have to say, the critics underrated this movie. Leslie Nielsen is a brilliant comic actor. I see in Nielsen... Full review

I have to say that this is one of the greatest comedy trilogies I have ever seen. Leslie Neilson has never stopped with the laughter and his fearless performance as Frank. Presilla does a fantastic job and her Thelma and... Full review

I enjoyed the first two Naked Guns. I laughed at the gags and slapstick and inside jokes that I missed. "Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult" is even better than the two installments, and, despite the subtitle, you won't... Full review

As you maybe know, I really loved the first two Naked Gun films. I was a little afraid of the fact that they changed the director. David Zucker went away from the director's room and Peter Segal went in. But... Full review

Naked Gun 33 1/3 is a good example of a sequel made to please it viewers after the last to films were successful. Now with this film, it's not a perfect ten. The acting is a little dumbed down and... Full review

So, here we are then, with the third part of the very silly 'Naked Gun' series. For some reason, David Zucker isn't in the director's chair this time; and his replacement is the man who would go on to direct... Full review

It's rare for a cop movie to combine elements from "The Untouchables", "Thelma & Louise" and "The Brady Bunch".Unless, of course, the lead character has a tendency to run his car into parking meters."The Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final... Full review

Naked Gun 33 1/3," as pointlessly plotted as ever, manages to be not only still funny but energetically slapped together and occasionally inventive.
Priscilla Presley, who reprises her saucy role as Mrs. Drebin, alas is almost lost in a failed subplot aimed to send up the conventions of childless heroines with baby angst.

Padding around his house in pink slippers, he dusts for cobwebs instead of fingerprints; and after six months of marriage, things aren't as passionate with Priscilla as they used to be.
Without spoiling things further, let's just say the scene is milked to the last comic drop.

In regard to sound effects placement, this mix is also a bit livelier than the first two installments.
Ira Newborns breezy music a sound good, although the music isnt integrated into this mix as well as it was in the re-mix for the first movie.

After all, the film is aptly called The Final Insult , so the last joke is on the audience.
Much of what this movie pokes fun at, especially the Academy Awards, is ripe for the satirical plucking.
