Review of The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988) by Michael T — 01 Dec 2013

When I was 12 in 1988, this film was the most hilarious movie ever - it was insanely funny. Looking at it now, the movie's rather thin plot is merely an excuse for a sequence of hit or miss gags. If nothing else, the movie features one of the most unlikely casts ever; Leslie Nielsen (once a dramatic leading man), O.

J. Simpson (no comment), George Kennedy ("Cool Hand Luke"). Priscilla Presley (Elvis' wife!), and Ricardo Montalban ("Fantasy Island") who steals every scene he's in!
