Eavesdropping at the Movies: 450 – The Naked Gun (2025)

August 14, 2025UncategorizedAirplane!, Akiva Schaffer, Comedy, Leslie Nielsen, Liam Neeson, Pamela Anderson, Police Squad!, The Naked GunNotesonFilm1

The Naked Gun is rebooted with Liam Neeson in the part that was once Leslie Nielsen’s, and he shows just how hard comedy can be. We discuss everything the film gets wrong. If only they’d asked us for help.

 

Listen on the players below Apple Podcasts, Audible, Spotify, or YouTube Music.

With José Arroyo of First Impressions and Michael Glass of Writing About Film.

Film

I'm interested in film, writing, culture, and history of thought. This blog is mostly about film but is also a means to develop, share, and engage in a conversation on any or all of these topics.
