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. ***
