  • 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!

  • TOGETHER 2025 Movie Review – Ending Explained

    Together is a sweet love story between Alison Brie and Mike Pancake. It’s Dave Franco actually, but once your name is Pancake in a movie you can’t go back. Old school Hollywood rules. So this pancake was sorta in love with another pancake, and suddenly the two pancakes became STUCK together!

    Now I love pancakes as much as the next person that has ever tried them, but to see two of ‘em STUCK together is gross! I should probably state that I thought Together was actually a very good movie overall. And I loved that it was very dramatic. It was also pretty gross though! If you can get past that issue, the story is pretty fun and comes together nicely by the end. There were a few moments where the tone was a bit odd with the dialogue choices in certain situations. Also, there were more comedic moments than I was expecting for a movie with such an extreme plot. It worked that way, regardless. The funny comments helped make it more palatable that we have to witness two pancakes merging together.

    k I’m just gonna start talking about sumtin’ else now. Ban Smith was a private eye. He liked investigating clues and stuff. He was on a CASE. Arriving at a light green colored house, he knocks on the door. A man greets him with the most chillingly oppressive stare and invites Ban inside. There is a nice fireplace illuminating the living room. The two sit. 

    Man: What brings you to my home this melancholic evening?

    Ban: Are you not the man they call Rodust?

    Rodust: Yes, I have been called by that name. Usually at least a few times per day.

    Ban: Rodust, do you have INFORMATION for me?

    Rodust: I am always holding information. What will I get in return?

    Ban: So that’s the way it’s gonna be? OK. I will offer you this Baby Cat Keychain they just gave me at the gas station for spending over 20 American dollars.

    Rodust:  This offer is acceptable to Rodust. The one you seek is in the hilltop cabin. I would leave quickly. Plus the sooner I have this Baby Cat Keychain, surely the better!

    [Ban hands the keychain to Rodust]

    Ban: Additionally, whenever I again hear talk of the strange rumors people say about Rodust – I will stand up and defend your honor!

    Rodust: No need, Ban. I assure you most of those rumors are true.

    Bandolier Smith is walking on the trail to the hilltop cabin as it starts to rain. The weather is looking like it will be quite grim in the late night. He thinks to himself: “Will I regret giving up my Baby Cat Keychain?” He was feeling an unusual combination of both determination and heartbreak. Odd things keep appearing to his left or right. Dark figures almost in view – yet there is nothing each time he turns his head. Ban was never one to believe in the supernatural, but he couldn’t help feeling like he was surrounded by ghastly entities in the dark of this lonely path. There! Just ahead! Ban was now in view of the towering gate to the hilltop area.

    Ending Explained: The two main characters fully merge into one body. There is now a hybrid Mike Pancake and Alison Brie person and they seem to be fine with the situation.

    Final Thoughts: 8/10 Crowns. Together was better than I had anticipated! It’s just only for people that can handle creepy and gross horror films. Dis Drawma Kingg ain’t afraid of no movie! I can usually handle any film, but even I was fairly grossed out in some of the scenes. I think that is kind of the point though, and it was good at accomplishing it’s task. I would like to add that Dave Franco won some street cred for doing an interesting offbeat movie, thus I will attempt to try to stop calling him Mike Pancake. This means I will have to defy the vastly ancient and spiritual Hollywood rules. Luckily, your brave Drawma Kingg has always been a rule breaker!

  • THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS 2025 Movie Review – Ending Explained

    There’s this movie called The Fantastic Four: First Steps. You would be correct if you thought it was about 4 superheroes from watching the trailer. It was four separate people with four completely separate personalities. Let me explain.

    Person 1: was a person of person descent. Really valued food, water, and oxygen. Anyways so they was walking home one day with their cousin Jimmy and Jimmy revealed to them a shocking thing! So shocking it can’t be printed! This really affected Person 1 and who they came to be as a person.

    Person 2: was a smooooth dude! I don’t necessarily mean a man or a woman, just a smooooth dude! Anyways, so sometimes Person 2’s smoothness would catch up to them in VITAL ways in life. For example:

    Random Person Walking By When Stopping At A Convenience Store: Hey bro nice shirt.

    Person 2: Thanks bro.

    RPWBWSAACS: You must be a smooooth dude!

    Person 2: Yeah I get that a lot…

    Or here is ANOTHER EXAMPLE:

    Person 2 was just driving by on their motorcycle when two cars ahead got into a collision. A woman flew out of one of the cars and was caught by Person 2 driving by on their motorcycle just at the right time to save the woman’s life! Person 2 didn’t stop to review the scene of the accident! They just drove the woman straight to the hospital and never took their sunglasses off in the process!

    Person 3: was a fine upstanding person, but pretty annoying to hang out with. I mean, for one, their music taste was questionable. Favorites being: Imagine Dragons, Coldplay, and Maroon 5. But a more direct example:

    Person 3: Wanna get some pizzas?

    Other three persons: We all already agreed we are getting tacos and pop-soda for dinner. We already wasted HOURS on this conversation earlier!

    Person 3: Oh right, right. I forgot.

    [Time passes, three persons have already given their orders to the nice lady at the taco and pop-soda stand.]

    Person 3: Wanna get gyros?

    Other three persons: OH COME ON!

    Upon finishing dinner, Person 3 cursed the name of pizzas, gyros, and ALL other food options after experiencing the decadence of tacos and pop-soda!

    Person 4: had even more person qualities than the other three people, and thus was the most likable of the group. Everyone liked this person and here is how you knew for sure:

    Person 3: Wanna get some pizzas?

    Other three persons: God no! Not this again!

    Person 4: Would anyone like to rake the leaves, give the dogs a bath, and then do a funny dance?

    All persons: Yes!

    Ending Explained: The Fantastic Four Foil Galactus.

    Final Thoughts: 7/10 Crowns. I walked out of the theater thinking 6.5 but it grew on me some upon reflection. I wasn’t sure if I was going to like the actors for Sue and Johnny, who have always been my two favorite members of the Fantastic Four. In the end I thought Invisible Woman was awesome, but Human Torch didn’t shine in this movie. [SPOILER] It also left you unsatisfied by choosing not to address exactly how the Fantastic Four join the other characters in the main Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Fantastic Four: First Steps was an enjoyable movie. It just didn’t break any new ground like Fantastic Four #1 in 1961. I have no idea who they are, but Fantastic Four #1 musta been created by some smooooth dudes! I mean what other logical explantation IS THERE?!

    *Disclaimer: Person 1, Person 2, Person 3, and Person 4 do not actually appear to be characters present in any way in the film The Fantastic Four: First Steps.
