The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!

Man that Orenthal James Simpson is such a talent. I sure hope he isn’t one day arrested on two accounts of murder and judged in front of a jury of his peers.

la mia commedia preferita in assoluto, per chi non lo sapesse ci sta anche una serie TV credo anni 80 su questo genere. voto 10!

Dumb funny but wanted to watch before seeing the new one. Unfortunately got me to laugh often. Booo OJ

Still mind blowing that the juice is a part of the cast…and absolutely crushed it

Honestly the new one is better, mainly for the fact Liam neeson is just the much better Frank drenbin, and the jokes hit, not saying this one doesn’t, they do, just a lot less. 7/10
