WHAT A HILARIOUS MOVIE!! Go to http://thrivemarket.com/ReelRejects to receive 30% off your first order AND a FREE gift when you join Thrive Market today! The Naked Gun: From The Files Of The Police Squad Full Reaction Watch Along: https://www.patreon.com/thereelrejects With The Seth Macfarlane & Liam Neeson Naked Gun Reboot Sequel releasing it's time for The Naked Gun Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review! Aaron Alexander & Andrew Gordon dive headfirst into the hilariously absurd world of The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988), directed by comedy legend David Zucker and written by the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker trio (Airplane!, Top Secret!). This slapstick classic stars Leslie Nielsen as the iconic, deadpan Detective Frank Drebin, alongside Priscilla Presley as Jane Spencer, Ricardo Montalbán as the villainous Vincent Ludwig, George Kennedy as Captain Ed Hocken, and O.J. Simpson as unlucky Officer Nordberg. We break down some of the film’s most unforgettable gags—like the Queen of England baseball scene, Frank’s chaotic press conference, the “safe sex” full-body condom bit, and the hospital “he’s going to be all right” line that still kills. From banana peels to bee attacks, malfunctioning microphones to exploding opera singers—this movie is the definition of rapid-fire comedy and visual gags. We talk about the legacy of the Naked Gun franchise, its roots in Police Squad! (the short-lived but beloved TV series), and how this movie helped cement Leslie Nielsen as a comedy icon after years in dramatic roles. Whether you're revisiting this '80s gem or watching it for the first time, join us as we laugh ourselves silly and celebrate one of the most quotable and rewatchable comedies of all time—especially with Liam Neeson set to reboot The Naked Gun soon under Paramount and Seth MacFarlane! #TheNakedGun #NakedGunReaction #LeslieNielsen #CinePals #PoliceSquad #80sComedy #ComedyReaction #SlapstickHumor #SpoilerReview #MovieReaction #ReactionVideo #RewatchClassic #Comedy #trynottolaugh #funny #funnyvideo #funnyshorts #funnyvideos #funnycomedy #hilarious #sethmacfarlane the naked gun 2 https://youtu.be/xTaVqeiKQ00 Scary Movie (2000) Movie Reaction https://youtu.be/cOGETdYHxss The Naked Gun (Greg's Reaction) https://youtu.be/-lp_G0Wfkbg Wedding Crashers Reaction https://youtu.be/5ZWEejpn_uM We're the millers reaction https://youtu.be/rULLa6t69Dw Follow Aaron On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therealaaronalexander/?hl=en Follow Andrew Gordon On Socials: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MovieSource Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/agor711/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/Agor711 0:00 Checking In 1:04 Thrive Market 2:46 The Naked Gun From The Files Of The Police Squad Reaction 46:58 The Naked Gun Review Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Aparrel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Head Editor: https://www.instagram.com/praperhq/?hl=en Supervising Producer: https://twitter.com/nerdchronic?lang=en Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG Follow GREG On INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/thegregalba/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thegregalba PLAYLISTS: Trailer Reactions & Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw9ZsLdoAQFpx38s2hhyFgDe Movie Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8 Movie Talk (News, Spoiler Reviews, & Film Rumors!!!): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw8fPQ-21NVSb2IOwIiHbVt8 Youtube Video Reactions & Discussions: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_qwcPsN_vOxXC6IVzrOQYG

When Leslie Nielsen died, I forget the paper, maybe it was the LA Times, who ran his obituary as Enrico Palazzo.

Ive always loved the fact that leslie nielsen was a serious actor before airplane and critics said it would end his career but he is the master of dead pan comedy and it made him a huge star after the fact.

Apparently, Weird Al took at least one date to this movie while wearing the same shirt without telling them he was in it.

What's fun is, Frank said he was Dutch-Irish and now they have an Irish actor to play his son.

Frank wasn't sent to Beirut to do that. Its easy to miss, but Frank mentions he was there on vacation. He just kinda did that on his own, which as we see by the rest of the movie, is just how he is.

The opening scene had a lot of U.S. adversaries at the time: Idi Amin, Muammar Gaddafi, Mikhail Gorbachev, Yassir Arafat, Fidel Castro, Ayatollah Khomenei.

46:14 I can’t believe their hug made them miss one of the most out of pocket jokes in the movie 😭
