Today, on The Goggler Podcast, Bahir and Uma watch and review the unapologetically silly revival of The Naked Gun with Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson.
Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., son of the bumbling detective from the original Naked Gun films, patrols Los Angeles with the same dead‑pan obliviousness his father made famous. When a suspicious death at an electric-car company leads Drebin into a conspiracy involving a tech billionaire, he teams up with crime‑writer Beth Davenport. What follows is a relentless parade of visual gags, puns, pratfalls, and retro‑style slapstick that leans into cheesy absurdity reminiscent of the original Police Squad! movies. The Naked Gun was directed by Akiva Schaffer, co‑written with Dan Gregor and Doug Mand, and stars Liam Neeson, Pamela Anderson, Paul Walter Hauser, Kevin Durand, and Danny Huston.
