...seen other movies in the Naked Gun trilogy in the past and my dad used to be quite the fan, though he's seen them too many times now I believe, my mum is fed up of such movies so I watched this one in my own time lol. It was shown during the New Year holidays on TV and I decided to record it for later enjoyment, so I watched it last night and here's what its all about as well as my take on it, of course. - Main Credits (non-actors, which are mentioned ...
...main acting cast) - Naked Gun brings lieutenant Frank Drebin (played by Leslie Neilson) onto the big screen, in the first of three 'Naked Gun' movies. The character originally appeared in the TV comedy show 'Police Squad'. In this particular movie, as he tries to find out who tried to kill his friend and partner Detective Nordberg (played by OJ Simpson, yes 'that' OJ), after he tried to take down a gang of criminals who had been shipping in heroin ...

Advantages: as strong (if not stronger) than the first film
Disadvantages: some gags a bit too predictable

Naked Gun 2 ½ - The Smell of Fear Review Background One of my early memories as a child was the huge poster in the local video shop window of The Naked Gun with a picture of a rather old looking, grey haired James Bond-esque character on the front. I more vividly remember my mum taking the extreme micky out of the fact that I pronounced it the "knackered" gun. Little did I know that my Dad would later drill the trilogy of the films ...
...knows from the same writers (Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker), 'Airplane'. Naked Gun derived from the short lived TV series Police Squad, which became more cult than successful in the United States. Its main character, Frank Drebin, (Leslie Neilson) is a cop with a knack of getting to the bad guys but not really with any conviction of meaning to. In the first film he stops a plot to kill the Queen whilst falling in love with the villain's assistant ... Read review

Advantages: Great Comedy Film
Disadvantages: none

"Airplane" has to be one of the funniest films in aviation history. The storyline to Airplane involves a failed relationship between a beautiful cabin attendant (Julie Hagerty) and an ex-military pilot (Robert Hays) who can't let go of his past. He buys himself a plane ticket on the flight she is working on in an attempt to get his girlfriend back, but when all the pilots have bad fish for their lunch, Ted Stryker has to let go of his past, put ...
...up to the flight deck to save the day. This movie is made hysterically funny by scenes that include the ticket desk issuing a "smoking" ticket, "Puttona de seatbeltz" signs, and air traffic controllers pulling the plug on the runway lighting when the stricken aircraft is on finals to land. The great part of this paticular DVD are the special features or the Safety Features which include : Commentary from the writer, directors and producer Jon ... Read review

Advantages: Amazing graphics, good sound and storyline
Disadvantages: None I can think of.

...drawing) of life as a bee here.I was amazed at how realistic a job they have done of creating a film about a Bee. This is a story that has never been touched before and Dreamworks have done a fantastic job in animating this film. The storyline is of a Bee who falls in love with a human after she saves him from being swatted, this sets off a chain of reaction which ends up with the main character taking the Human Race to court for stealing honey. ...
...didn't do their job. Bee Movie offers a never before seen journey into the heart of a bee hive and shows what life for a bee is like, from a cartoon angle. To be honest I'm sure its not like this, but who cares. I found this a throughly enjoyable movie and anticipate watching it again and again - this is definitely one for any film lovers' shelf. It has all the makings of a great movie good characters, great interaction, good follow through with ... Read review

Advantages: easy going humour, easy to watch, ideal for teenage girls.
Disadvantages: Quite cheesy and very predictable storyline

Ive seen this film twice now... I loved it the first time...but i found that it is a film that you will not enjoy the second time you watch it. This is a typical chick flick film, similar to other films such as 'mean girls'. It has some funny moments, but the story line is fairly predictable. I think that this film is probably suitable for young (teenage) children, but not really for anybody 18+, due to its lack of sophistication. But if you ...
...this will be ideal :) None of the characters are played by famous actors, but they still fulfill the roles well. I think that it compares well to other chick flick films like mean girls and shes the man, due to its simple humour and good (yet predictable) storyline. ... Read review
