- Liam Neeson's new comedy, The Naked Gun reboot, has received positive reviews from both critics and audiences.
- The film has earned over $42m (£31m) globally in its first two weeks and achieved a 91 per cent score on Rotten Tomatoes, the highest for the franchise.
- Despite the film's success, Neeson, who portrays Frank Drebin Jr., expressed doubt about a sequel, suggesting it is likely a one-off.
- The movie also features Pamela Anderson, Kevin Durand, and Paul Walter Hauser, and was directed by Akiva Schaffer with Seth MacFarlane as producer.
- The Independent's review notes that the film subtly shifts its parody from self-serious cop shows to the self-seriousness of police officers in a contemporary context.
