There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

This is the last film in the "Naked Gun" series, the original of which was one of the best comedies I saw in my whole life. I am starting to miss Leslie Nielsen and it's sad that he was in so many awful movies in his later life like "Mr. Magoo", the first film I ever saw that I sincerely hated. At least he got some great ones under his belt. While not as good as the original, this was better than "Airplane II: The Sequel". It's great to have the most famous actor back. It does take awhile to get good, but we do get a great finale eventually. As usual, we get joke after joke most of which are good. It is weird watching this as it's probably the last time we ever saw O. J. Simpson before his infamous trial. I could just go on all day about the best jokes. My favorite might have been when James Earl Jones said one of the films nominated for Best Picture did poorly at the box office. Drebin (Nielsen) finds out that the Best Picture envelope has the literal bomb and says, "It's the bomb!" causing the crowd to cheer. It's great we get some characters annoyed by the wacky antics too. ***

The entire crew behind and in front of the camera returns for this third outing (the fourth if you want to include the original TV series), but this time the film had more jokes that seemed to misfire. In the plus column for the film Leslie Nielsen is hilariously serious, the underused Fred Ward joins the cast, and comedy icon Kathleen Freeman has a supporting part. In the minus column, the annoying Anna Nicole Smith also joins the cast. Worth watching for fans of the series, but nothing great.

Starts OK, but goes from bad to worse. The last third is pretty Unwatchable.The script can't handle even a short movie of 82 minutes (of which 7 minutes are end credits!). Seems like something went wrong there. In addition, it has too many references to other movies and they are also way too long. There are simply too many cheap laughs.O.J. Simpson and Anna Nicole Smith are simply awful.This is a pretty weak ending to the trilogy, which is a shame since the first movie was hilarious (and IIRC so was the TV series on which it's based).

The Third entry of the Naked Gun Trilogy is my second favorite Naked Gun film. In my opinion I think is way better than the second installment The Smell of Fear. I love Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult to death! There are reason I thought the second flick was a little bit rushed and I kind a felt bored with it. This flick is the opposite of the second sequel, it fast paced, funny, entertaining and it has completely different written characters. Leslie Nielsen kicks ass in this movie! I love it almost the same as I love the first film, just the first one will be the best and a classic flick. This is the second one I love. Leslie Nielsen returned as LT. Frank Drebin for the third time in The Naked Gun Trilogy. This time The Final Insult was directed from different director Peter Segal and not David Zucker.Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult is very underrated solid comedy flick that stick back to the formula of the first film, the movie combine elements from "The Untouchables", "Thelma & Louise" and "The Brady Bunch". It is everything I love about this film. Leslie Nielsen returns as Lieutenant Frank Drebin (his original character from Police Squad!), along with Priscilla Presley as Jane Spencer Drebin, O. J. Simpson (his last film released before the notorious murders and his subsequent trial) as Officer Nordberg and George Kennedy as Captain Ed Hocken. Newcomers to the series Fred Ward, Anna Nicole Smith, and Kathleen Freeman co-star as a gang of bombers set to blow up the Academy Awards ceremony. Raye Birk reprises his role as the villainous "Pahpshmir" from The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!.Plot: Police Lt. Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen) gets called out of retirement and sent to prison on an undercover assignment. His mission: Learn how terrorist Rocco Dillon (Fred Ward) plans to blow up the academy Awards ceremony. Jane (Priscilla Presley), is desperate for a baby.. this adds to Frank's problems. But when duty calls, Drebin answers! I love that character development in this film, I love that Frank goes to prison as undercover cellmate prisoner I really love that. In this prison you have Randall 'Tex' Cobb as an inmate, you have a fight in the diner, a baseball game and an escape plan. I love Fred Ward as the bad guy in this film. Earl Boen returns as another shrink from The Terminator trilogy. But what this film has is beautiful gorgeous sexy Anna Nicole Smith! She is so beautiful this was her first big role in a movie and I fall in love with her immediately. She was awesome as Rocco's girl Tanya Peters.Reality TV star, actress and former model Anna Nicole Smith has died after collapsing in Hollywood, Florida. On February 8, 2007 (aged 39) Hollywood, Broward County, Florida, U.S The 39-year-old was found unconscious in her hotel room at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino yesterday afternoon. According to hotel officials, Smith was "unresponsive" and emergency crews performed Cpr at the scene and a breathing apparatus was inserted in her throat. Paramedics were seen pumping her chest as she was taken from the hotel and transported to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood. She died at 2:49 pm ET. Anna Nicole Smith died one month earlier before my beloved mom died over her heart failure. The Year 2007 was horrible year for me, until I found out Anna also died the same year one month earlier that mom died. R.I.P. Anna Nicole Smith (1967 - 2007) you were an intelligent beautiful sexy model and a gorgeous actress.Another actress I want to congratulate for her acting performance is Priscilla Presley as Jane Spencer, I love her character in this movie she wasn't annoying character like she was in the second one I love that they do something with her character. I love that she was a tough girl, a bad ass and she even regret her mistake by forcing Frank to retired, like she did in the second one. This movie was more funny I laugh more a lot than in the second one I did, I have enjoy this film, because you can never laugh in the movie and that's what I did in the second one that is third one is the way for me. This is a solid film at least better in my opinion as the second move The Smell of Fear.What can I say? I love this movie oh and by the way Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult was released the same year as Ace Ventura: Pet Detective come out. I also like the addition of the bad guys Fred Ward has his mother as her accomplice, I love the slapstick in this movie it is a bad-ass! I love the terrorist plot blowing Academy awards ceremony. This is a enjoyable way to end "The Naked Gun" film series. This flick get's a solid 9 out of 10.Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult is a 1994 comedy film, and the third and final installment in The Naked Gun film series, which was based on the Police Squad! television series.9/10 Grade: A Studio: Paramount Pictures Starring: Leslie Nielsen, Priscilla Presley, George Kennedy, O.J.
