The Naked Gun

A special division police officer is assigned to protect the Queen of Britain during her visit to Los Angeles. Around this premise, the trio of Zucker, Abrahams & Zucker fire off a hysterical barrage of gags and jokes spoofing police films and spy thrillers of the late 20th century. Leslie Nielsen shines as Officer Frank Drebin, a perfect idiot who manages to botch every mission with unshakable confidence. As in their previous films Airplane! and Top Secret, the screen overflows with parodies, visual gags, and wordplay that demand multiple viewings to catch them all. A wild, classic comedy that's always a joy to revisit.
