Upon its release, The Naked Gun received strong critical acclaim. The film currently holds an 87 percent approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 334 critic reviews, while audience ratings stand at 73 percent. Wenlei Ma of The Nightly praised the film, describing it as “an unadulterated good time, absolutely brimming with sight gags, one-liners and goofy humour.” Ma noted that the sequel remains true to the original films’ legacy of silliness, calling it “dumb but brilliantly dumb.”

In addition to its favorable reviews, The Naked Gun demonstrated impressive box office performance, grossing over $52 million domestically and approximately $49.5 million internationally, according to Box Office Mojo. With its streaming launch on Prime Video, the film is expected to attract an even broader audience and further enhance its popularity.
