Critic Reviews

  • Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader

    Silly enough to make you laugh sometimes in spite of yourself -- at least if you're feeling like a little boy.

  • Caryn James, New York Times

    The film's first-time director, Peter Segal, has adopted the series' style seamlessly.

  • James Berardinelli, ReelViews

    It's sad to see what started out as such a lively and creative series descend to this -- a feeble attempt to stretch a few pedestrian jokes into a feature-length film.

  • Rita Kempley, Washington Post

    Manages to be not only still funny but energetically slapped together and occasionally inventive.

  • Desson Thomson, Washington Post

    Wherever you are in the story, there's always something funny coming at you.

    Not as great like the first two pictures. Still The Naked Gun 33 1/3 it's the final installment of an unforgettable serie and closing one of the best trilogies ever.

  • Samuel R


    This features less decent laughs than 2 1/2 and the original, but does contain some more recognised scenes, from the opening, to the *SPOILER REMOVED*. However, Neilsen still maintains his reputation as a master of slapstick comedy

  • Jens S


    Pretty much to everyone's surprise the third and final installment of the most hilarious cop comedy series of all times is an enhancement after the second. Sure, a couple of jokes feel repetitive by now, you just know the type of things Frank Drebin will say or cause. The film… More

    Leslie Nielson is back in one of the most shockingly disappointing sequels of all time. I cannot say that I hate this film, but it fails to provide any worthwhile comedy and the switch to dramatic moments was a very odd thing for s series like this to do. If they were going to have… More

  • Tim S


    And so we come to the final entry in the Naked Gun series. Is it becoming tired at this point? You betcha. To be fair, this sequel is only slightly better than the one that came before it, but that isn't saying much. There aren't quite as many gags this time around as it… More
