Discover why this modern spoof comedy successfully merges slapstick chaos with action tropes, honoring the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker legacy while modernizing the humor for today’s audiences.

Short Summary

  • The reboot captures the spirit of the original franchise while updating its relevance to modern film genres (e.g., tech billionaires as villains, intense action cinematography).
  • Liam Neeson’s deadpan delivery perfectly channels Frank Drebin, showing surprising comedic range while honoring Leslie Nielsen’s original performance.
  • Pamela Anderson’s character is praised for demonstrating strong agency and being pertinent to the central plot, not just a damsel in distress.
  • Reviewers agree the film expertly balances serious, almost visceral action sequences with absurd, high-impact comedic bits.

This video features Greg Alba, Aaron Alexander, and Andrew Gordon reacting to and analyzing The Naked Gun (2025). They break down the balance between genuine story progression and relentless parody, noting how the film navigates genre spoofing better than its predecessor, Naked Gun 33⅓.

LAUGHED SO MUCH WE CRIED!! The Naked Gun Full Movie Reaction Watch Along: https://www.patreon.com/thereelrejects - LIQUID IV: Visit http://www.liquidiv.com & use Promo Code: REJECTS - Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ Now that they've seen the original series of films, Greg, Aaron, & Andrew step into the 21st Century of Policework, giving their The Naked Gun 2025 Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review! Greg Alba, Aaron Alexander & Andrew Gordon react to and review the outrageous new spoof comedy The Naked Gun (2025), directed by Akiva Schaffer (Hot Rod, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, Chip ’n Dale: Rescue Rangers). This reboot of the classic parody franchise delivers slapstick chaos, absurd one-liners, and over-the-top set pieces that revive Lieutenant Frank Drebin for a new generation. Liam Neeson (Taken, Love Actually) steps into the deadpan role of Lt. Frank Drebin, bringing his action gravitas to the ridiculous detective hijinks. Pamela Anderson (Baywatch, Barb Wire) stars as the glamorous love interest, while the supporting cast includes Paul Walter Hauser (Black Bird, I, Tonya), Kevin Durand (The Strain, X-Men Origins: Wolverine), and CCH Pounder (Avatar, The Shield). Packed with slapstick gags, overblown set pieces, and celebrity cameos, the film spoofs crime thrillers, police procedurals, and even action blockbusters. Standout moments include Drebin bungling a hostage rescue, outrageous courtroom antics, and a side-splitting sports stadium finale that rivals the classic baseball sequence from the original. Join us as we break down the funniest scenes, the biggest surprises, and whether Schaffer’s reboot successfully captures the spirit of the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker original for today’s audiences. #NakedGun #TheNakedGun #TheNakedGun2025 #LiamNeeson #PamelaAnderson #AkivaSchaffer #SpoofComedy #MovieReaction #FilmReview #GregAlba #AaronAlexander #AndrewGordon #TheLonelyIsland #LeslieNielsen #PoliceSquad #React #ReactTo #Reaction #Hilarious #Comedy #Movie #Movies #NewMovies #TryNotToLaugh #Hilarious The Naked Gun (1988) Greg's Reaction: https://youtu.be/-lp_G0Wfkbg The Naked Gun (1988) Aaron & Andrew's Reaction: https://youtu.be/O3sOm6g79bU The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear (1991) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/xTaVqeiKQ00 Naked Gun 33⅓: The Final Insult (1994) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/GKFP8pNlaSU Police Academy (1984) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/WYJvRgNUnUE 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 Follow GREG On INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/thegregalba/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thegregalba 0:00 Checking In! 2:34 The Naked Gun Reaction 26:01 LIQUID IV 27:28 The Naked Gun Movie Reaction 54:21 The Naked Gun 2025 Review Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ 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 Co-Editor: Greg Alba Co-Editor: John Humphrey 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 Ask Us A QUESTION On CAMEO: https://www.cameo.com/thereelrejects PLAYLISTS: Trailer Reactions & Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw9ZsLdoAQFpx38s2hhyFgDe Movie Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8 Sketches & Short Films: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_zWuTRfBOUP3aYyIYRzc2y

Underrated gag is that at the first crime scene he puts on one glove on his left hand and then picks up the evidence with his right bare hand.

The fact that Neeson spent the last 20 years doing serious action movies makes his role in this movie even funnier 😂😂

The first time I watched this in the cinema, the people in my cinema laughed for the whole movie. I've never laughed that hard for quite some time. What a reboot sequel this was!
