The Plot…

“I don’t know who you are. I don’t know what you want. If you are looking for a funny movie, I can tell you The Naked Gun (2025) might fit the bill. Frank Drebin has passed on.  But Frank Drebin, Jr. has taken his place and what Frank Jr. does have are a very particular set of skills, skills he acquired over a very long career. Skills that make him a nightmare for audiences like you. If you watch his movie now, that’ll be the end of it. But if you don’t,at some point you will.  And it won’t will kill you.”

Naked Gun (2025) might have easily been called Sons of the Police Squad.  Each of the lead characters from The Naked Gun movies have passed on and their sons have taken their spots.

Book ’em.
