The first half was good, almost on-par with the first two movies, especially the first. The second half was also good, it just felt like something was...missing, lacking. It almost felt...I don't know, disconnected, from everything that preceded it, not just in this movie but the first two installments, too. It didn't feel as memorable. Although to be fair, that's probably an assumption made way too soon given how I just watched it. How can any of it be memorable so soon? I'll admit, though, perhaps I was still wrapped around the first half while watching the rest, and that's the explanation for why I felt whatever I felt about the second half. Anyway, moving on, there were a good amount of good lines, which is to be expected, I guess, just like before with the previous installments. I'd go as far as to say, even better lines. Certainly more iconic and recallable. There was also the scene nearing the end, the scene where everyone facepalmed. That caught me by surprise. I've seen the GIF many times but never made the correlation with the familiar characters in it to this trilogy, I didn't even recognize them or rather, I never recalled the GIF based on seeing the characters. Naturally, the realization effect was strong. I feel like an idiot, now. All in all, this was another good, enjoyable installment of the Naked Gun trilogy but perhaps not the best to conclude it. I wonder if it was meant to be the final installment or if something or other occurred, causing there to never be another one.

**A fitting end to one of the great comedy trilogies of the 90s.**

This is the third and final film in the “Naked Gun” trilogy. Throughout the film, one can smell farewell and conclusion, and it is undeniable that, among them, this is the weakest and least interesting. Even so, the film does what it needs to do to please its audience, who already know perfectly well what they are going to see and have a certain level of expectations. Although his style of humor may displease many people, we cannot deny that the three films were a notable success in the 80s and 90s, and that they had a major impact on Leslie Nielsen's filmography.

In fact, the strength of Nielsen's work and charisma is what makes the film work. Without him, or with another actor, nothing would make sense and the final product would have no value. Even so, we must also highlight the work developed by O. J. Simpson, Priscilla Presley and George Kennedy, actors who put a lot of effort into their respective roles and found, in this film, time and material to match their talent. In fact, compared to its predecessors – and in these cases comparisons are inevitable – I thought this film gave more space to the secondary actors and gained additional quality as a result.

It's not worth talking too much about the technical aspects, as this is a comical film that invests little in them and puts all its chips on humor and the main actor's performance. Even so, we can say that the film manages to maintain the quality that the trilogy has accustomed the public to. The script continues to be a problem, however, and is seen only as a vehicle for successive comic sequences and slapstick humor routines.

Given the huge success of the first two, I suppose the trilogy was bound to happen - but by now the joke and the characterisations had really worn very thin indeed. "Drebin" (Leslie Nielsen) is now happily (?) retired and living with his long-suffering wife "Jane" (Priscilla Presley) when he is sought out by his erstwhile colleagues "Ed" (George Kennedy) and "Nordberg" (OJ Simpson) to help out on their most dangerous case yet. Nope, the Queen is not making another state visit - it's "Rocco" (Fred Ward) and it looks like he wants to save Chris Rock any future embarrassment by blowing up the Oscars ceremony. What now ensues is a by now routine sequence of frying pan to fire scenarios, straight out of a Laurel & Hardy film. Sadly, that humour is all a bit passé now and though an appearance by Anna Nicole Smith must have given every budding actress from Tallahassee to Timbuktu a sense of hope that if she can make it, they can - the rest of it falls pretty flat! It is well enough made, the quips are quickly delivered and some of them still raise the odd smile. In the main, though, it is 80 minutes that almost looks like out-takes from the first two films with a thinly constructed plot by way of a template to hold it all together. It is watchable, but just not a patch on the earlier iterations.
