THE NAKED GUN 2025 Movie Review – Is It Worth Watching?

Have you ever taken advice from someone and soon realized it was horrible advice? This happened to me with The Naked Gun (2025). When I saw previews for the new Naked Gun flick, I thought it was going to be one of the worst movies of all time. I did not plan to ever watch it. Reviews started pouring in. Even the critics seem to be enjoying this movie. Dis Drawma Kingg believes in having a healthy amount of self-doubt, because no one is right 100% of the time. So I said “Maybe I am the one who is wrong!” I went to see it over my best judgment which turned out to be my WORST judgment!

3/10 Crowns and it only gets higher than a zero rating because of Pamela Anderson. She should have been the lead over Liam Neeson. The main problem was that I found the whole movie to be as painfully unfunny as the preview. Technically, there were a handful of times the jokes landed enough to get a half giggle out of me. These jokes only make you laugh in the way that someone gets a reaction out of you from telling a joke you were not expecting. You may have technically laughed slightly, but then you lose respect for the person after realizing their humor style is mostly various puns. The only scene I really liked was with a snowman they brought to life. Even this scene was more just amusing than it was laugh out loud funny though. In my personal and dramatic opinion, The Naked Gun is NOT worth watching. HOWEVER! [dat counts as a full sentence] I may be the minority opinion in thinking this movie is not funny at all.

My instinct was to avoid this movie, but I trusted other people over myself. Self-doubt must have kicked in, but I was right the first time with my initial instincts. Here’s the deal (and what I really wanted to talk about because obviously I don’t care about The Naked Gun) — I believe that advice from others usually steers me wrong in life. Like, my instincts are usually better than what someone else is telling me to do. The problem is Dis Drawma Kingg is only human and has certain areas of knowledge that are lacking. I don’t know everything so I have to come to other experts in other fields to resolve various issues in life. What if this person gives me bad advice?

What I’ve been getting at this whole time is this question: When should you take advice, and when should you reject it? Everyone likes to give advice, but (just in case you haven’t noticed) people think a lot of crazy things! I would highly advise against a lifestyle of following ALL of the random advice you get without question. Let’s try some examples:

SCENARIO #1

Advisor: You should eat dis.

You: You mean, that brownie that I saw you drop on the floor?

Advisor: He he he. You should eat dis.

SCENARIO #2

[Someone knocks at your door]

Advisor: You should buy this vacuum cleaner! God does it suck!

You: Like in a good way or in a The Naked Gun 2025 kind of way?

In Scenario 2, I would advise to never buy ANYTHING from those sneaky door-to-door vacuum cleaner salesmen. But what if I gave that advice to someone and it turned out they didn’t already have a vacuum cleaner and then they died of unvacuumed floor related injuries? I guess that’s just the normal amount of self doubt in me.

SCENARIO #3

Advisor: You should vote for this guy! He is going to do GOOD things!

You: Isn’t he the guy that used to beat up lil ol’ laydeez at the grocery store?

Advisor: Come on, he’s like 80! Times were different back then.

You: Instincts: I’m not so sure that was ever a thing since the advent of the grocery store…

SCENARIO #4

Your Doctor: Do this and you will be healed!

You: You start to suspect your doctor is not a knowledgeable person but merely just CONFIDENT. You become 92% sure as you watch him write you a prescription to eat more bacon while he dances the Macarena incorrectly.

My old rule of thumb was to stop taking advice from individuals and only strongly consider it if a lot of people are saying the same thing. That rule has now been completely shattered by a large number of people on the internet advising me to see The Naked Gun! I’m like Bizarro Alanis Morissette – it’s the BAD advice I just DID take!
