Watch National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon 1 For Free

Waste of time

The Worst Film Ever

Just perfect...

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Why there wasn't a sequel to this, I'll be buggered. When I went to see this, was the last time I was ushered into a seat, the cinema was that full. I remember that happening with the first Police Academy. Gone are those days. How funny is this movie? If I'll be blunt, I'm afraid to hypothesize, I laughed that much, and this happens every time I watch it. Probably on average, 12-15 laughs per minute. Hows the casting of Jackson and Estevez? Perfect. Estevez's own take on the Marty Riggs character, I really liked. It was good to see him in this, where again, Jackson, a straight down the line cop, was solid as he is always, both the character's surnames named after guns. There are so many actors with small parts in this, I'm not even gonna start. Well I will, as we our Chips duo, and Corey Feldman as a rookie cop, Paul Gleason as the cop in the first Die Hard, and yeah Bruce Willis's John Mclaine. This movie sends up other movies like Silence Of The Lambs and the Sharon Stone interrogation scene in Basic Instinct which is a hoot here. The writers really have to be commended for this one, where they've really brought something, infectiously funny all through, where the plot too is original. There's a missing microfilm. A cop is killed cause of it, because it contains a secret cookie recipe, a facade, as it's really cocaine inside. William Shatner as the dastardly chief baddie is hardly recognizable. It's the best acting I've seen from the guy, while I liked Dennis Leary as a playboy type, who disposed of permanently here. This film too features some actors in the "great actor status" you wouldn't expect to be in this. This is another bucket list movie, you must see. It would of been great to see how a sequel to this, would of panned out.

I laughed a lot when watching this movie, because it was so silly. I loved the cameos from Whoopi Goldberg and Denis Leary. I loved the silliness of the jokes. I loved the daftness of the story. This movie deserves to be highly rated as the whole point of a spoof is to laugh at the badness of it all, as most of it was just hilarious, and I mean that. I loved the references to other movies, without it becoming too offensive. The soundtrack was hip and cool, and the jokes on the whole worked. The performances were laugh out loud funny, especially from Estevez and Jackson, who couldn't be more different. (a bit like Rush Hour) There is also solid support from Jon Lovitz, Kathy Ireland, Tim Curry(with an accent that was a bit difficult to understand at times) and William Shatner. It did get a bit too silly at times, and the script suffered(though I loved the "no waking up without my penis is my worst nightmare" exchange between Jack and Jigsaw) but not that it was a huge disaster. Well worth watching if you're in a bad mood, or looking for fun! 8/10 Bethany Cox

Emilio Estevez, Samuel L. Jackson, Tim Curry, Kathy Irerland, William Shatner, Jon Lovitz, Whoopi Goldberg, the list goes on and on, cameos from Bruce Willis,, Eric Estrada, and John Wilcox, has to be without the funniest parody ever made period, maybe Hots shots 1 and 2 close behind,, oh and yes Charlie Sheen cameo,, what a wonderful movie,, the Wilderness Girl Cookies are being laced with drugs,, and it's up to detectives Colt and Luger to stop them,, General Mortars is William Shatner,, the bad guy,, cameo also by Dennis Leary in here,, this is so funny it would take me two pages on here to list all of the funny one liners,, i can't remember laughing so hard at a movie ever,, it's that good,, i mean today you got let's see date movie,, scary movie.. epic movie,, come on,,, even scream is wearing thin,, here,, this was classic,, and will never be forgotten , at least in my mind,, this movie is a 10 plus plus for me,, go watch it,, and you will see.

It seems to be silly season on send-up and farce at the moment as National Lampoon present us with yet another satire. This time "Lethal Weapon" is the target, although other films (such as "Basic Instinct" and "Die Hard") are also in the firing line.Emelio Estevez, Samuel L. Jackson and the supporting cast are not much more than average, and humour is achieved a lot less than stupidity. Look for cameo's from Charlie Sheen, Bruce Willis and Whoopi Goldberg among others.A very short film which falls well below the consistent hilarity it needed.Saturday, April 3, 1993 - Video
