Very well executed
For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
Fantastic!
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
This was way better than I expected. Generally, sequels tend to be not that great, so I was surprised when I actually found myself chuckling in this movie. It doesn't even come close to the original, though. Really, it's just a rehash of the first one, but it does it right. It has clever, humorous lines thrown in there with some good 'ol slapstick. It could have been much, much worse, and I'm grateful that they put this much care into this one. I can forgive it for most of it's flaws because, in the end, all I need from a comedy is for it to make me laugh and have fun. I don't need a intricate plot and complex characters, I just need to laugh, this movie meets those requirements. I say give it a watch. I hope Zuckerburg can keep bringing the laughs in the 3rd movie
Drebin discovers that his ex-girlfriend's new beau is involved in a plot to kidnap a scientist who advocates solar energy. Nothing to laugh at as there are fisticuffs back and forth with those who claim to work for justice. Nielson carries this movie and saves it from being a disaster with his physical slapstick. Nielson's is not the restrained performance that the critics have described. From an artistic standpoint, there were some plot elements and character developments I didn't think were totally needed. They do however drive the story, which seemed to be their purpose, so I can accept them. The effects are very good for 1991. But nothing to laugh at.
Another painful installment of the Naked Gun series. I was not impressed with the first movie but thought I would give the second one a try just in case I missed something. I can't help it, something inside me makes me need to see out the series to the end.I had maybe one or two laugh moments and like maybe one suspense moment but all-in-all another stinker. It was interesting to say the least to see Priscilla Presley in a movie, especially before all the work she has had. Oh and the pottery scene, you know what I am talking about. It was quite possibly one of the most disgusting scenes I have ever seen. I'm glad I watched it cause now I don't have to watch it ever again.
This is the sequel to David and Jerry Zucker and Jim Abrahams' first Naked Gun movie, a film bringing back Leslie Nielson as Lt. Frank Drebin, where we get to see the Los Angeles police detective in his funny blundering ways again, out to foil evil businessman and his ex-girlfriend's new beau Quentin Hapsburg's (Robert Goulet) plan to escape solar-energy advocate Dr Mainheimer (Richard Griffith).Like the first film, it's non-stop laughs from start to finish that that will result in tears in your eyes and side-splitting stomaches. The characters are calm and serious in their demeanor, but delivering outrageously humorous dialog and slapstick action. Drebin and Jane Spencer's (Priscilla Presley) wacky dance scene and the hilarious portrayals of George H.W. and Barbara Bush are my favorites scenes in the movie. The famous love scene from the movie "Ghost" is parodied here by Drebin and Spencer, humorously done. Unlike the first one, there is a political tone to this sequel, but it pokes fun at both sides of the spectrum.The jokes, one-liners and gags are endless, helped by the fast-paced plot and great acting. Pure entertainment! Grade A
