Liam Neeson’s “The Naked Gun” Reboot Is a Certified Fresh Comedy Hit

Laughter is Back in Action

Hold onto your badges—Frank Drebin is back. But this time, it’s Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., played with unexpected comedic flair by Liam Neeson, and audiences everywhere are here for it.

The newly released The Naked Gun reboot is already turning heads—and splitting sides—with a Certified Fresh rating of 89% on Rotten Tomatoes. And it’s not just the critics in stitches: moviegoers are all in on the fun, with a 75% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes’ Popcornmeter and an impressive A- grade on CinemaScore.

Critics Are in On the Joke

Fans of slapstick and satire are thrilled, and so are top entertainment outlets.

“The Naked Gun focuses on the laughs, which are all performed with a surprising and crucial amount of restraint,”

“Jokes never overstay their welcome, but they still hang around, allowing plenty of time for the laughter to keep going.”

— Screen Rant

“Schaffer sleekly and efficiently builds gut-busting laughs into every scene of this tight 85-minute runtime, ensuring satisfaction from top to bottom,” — The Playlist

Director Akiva Schaffer (of Popstar and Saturday Night Live fame) crafts a fast-paced, gag-filled joyride that’s both familiar and refreshingly modern. And with Seth MacFarlane (Family Guy, Ted) on board as producer, you can bet the humor is sharp, slick, and utterly absurd.

Watch the Official Trailer Here:

Liam Neeson Unleashes a Whole New Set of Skills

Known for his gravitas in Schindler’s List and stone-cold coolness in Taken, Neeson proves that comedy isn’t off-limits.

“The main reason that The Naked Gun is consistently smile-inducing is because of how wonderfully Neeson’s deadpan gravitas works with the material – a performer who can be so deadly serious doing things that are so deadly stupid,” — RogerEbert.com

His portrayal of Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., son of the legendary Leslie Nielsen’s original character, is a masterclass in straight-faced hilarity.

A Star-Studded Cast That Nails the Timing

Rounding out the all-star cast are Pamela Anderson, Paul Walter Hauser, CCH Pounder, Kevin Durand, Cody Rhodes, Liza Koshy, Eddie Yu, and Danny Huston.

Anderson, in particular, is stealing scenes:

“buoyant screen presence keeps [the dialogue] fresh and funny” and that her delivery “displays impeccable comic timing, never leaning too hard into a line when her breathy throwaway delivery can land a bigger laugh.” — The Hollywood Reporter

The Funniest Movie You’ll See This Year?

“With rapid-fire gags and a game cast trying hard to play it all completely straight, this nakedly hilarious Naked Gun is a welcome return in a time where we can use a few good laughs,” — Deadline Hollywood

“Fall-out-of-your-seat-and-roll-on-the-floor hilarious. See it with the biggest audience you can find. It might just heal you. It might just heal the world.” — Vulture

Whether you’re a longtime fan of the franchise or just in need of a feel-good movie that delivers relentless laughs, The Naked Gun delivers the comedy goods—with zero hesitation and maximum absurdity.

Don’t Miss the Madness

The Naked Gun hits cinemas nationwide this August 13. Don’t miss the funniest film of the year.

As the son of the iconic Frank Drebin (originally played by Leslie Nielsen), Neeson brings his signature intensity to a role that demands perfectly timed pratfalls and deadpan delivery.

“People are kind of always ready to laugh,” says producer Seth MacFarlane (Ted, Family Guy) in a new featurette for this year’s The Naked Gun. “Growing up, I loved The Naked Gun [starring Leslie Nielsen]. This kind of broad, absurdist comedy would transcend all age groups.”

A Powerhouse Comedy Dream Team

The reboot boasts a stacked cast:
New Posters? Yes, Please!

Alongside the featurette, fans are also treated to brand-new posters teasing the film’s zany energy. Expect outrageous poses, ridiculous props, and Neeson’s signature serious-face-in-a-silly-world expression.

The Verdict: Chaos, Crime-Fighting, and Comedy

Whether you’re a longtime fan of the original trilogy or a newcomer curious about why everyone’s quoting it, this reboot promises wall-to-wall laughs, car chases that defy logic, and plenty of quotable one-liners. Mark your calendars: The Naked Gun hits Philippine cinemas August 13.

“The Naked Gun” Returns with Liam Neeson and a Freshly Unleashed Trailer and Poster

Liam Neeson is stepping out of his usual action-packed roles—and into a pair of very large comedic shoes—as he takes the lead in the upcoming reboot of The Naked Gun. Hitting Philippine cinemas on August 13, the new film brings back the beloved slapstick style of the original, this time with Neeson playing Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., the son of the iconic detective made famous by Leslie Nielsen.

Fans finally got a sneak peek with the release of the film’s official trailer and poster, giving us a hilarious glimpse into the chaos that awaits.

Watch the New Trailer Now:

A Comedy Classic Returns

Directed by Akiva Schaffer (Saturday Night Live, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping) and produced by Seth MacFarlane (Ted, Family Guy), The Naked Gun brings back the kind of wild, over-the-top parody that made the original a cult classic. But this time, there’s a new Drebin in town—and he’s got his own “particular set of skills.”

Star-Studded and Silly

The film also features a fun and eclectic supporting cast that includes Pamela Anderson, Paul Walter Hauser, CCH Pounder, Kevin Durand, WWE superstar Cody Rhodes, Liza Koshy, Eddie Yu, and Danny Huston. Whether they’re part of the police force or the criminal chaos, expect big laughs and bigger stunts.

From Action Icon to Comedy King?

Best known for intense roles in films like Taken and The Grey, Neeson has been showing off his comedic timing in recent years with appearances in projects like A Million Ways to Die in the West and Life’s Too Short. Now, as Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., he’s fully embracing the absurdity, bringing a fresh (and funny) take to the bumbling detective character that made The Naked Gun a hit in the ‘80s and ‘90s.

Will he live up to his father’s name? Or at least survive the explosions, pratfalls, and punchlines? One thing’s for sure—it’s going to be ridiculous fun.

Don’t Miss the Fun on the Big Screen

The Naked Gun makes its way to cinemas across the Philippines starting August 13, and judging from the trailer, it’s going to be one hilariously bumpy ride. Follow the conversation online using #NakedGun and tag @paramountpicsph to share your reactions and favorite moments.
