MOVIE NEWS – It’s not uncommon for films to surprise audiences with entertaining moments after the end credits, and sometimes, the creators even share crucial information here—like a sequel tease that hints at more twists to come. In Jackie Chan movies, legendary outtakes are expected after the credits, letting viewers marvel at how the kung fu icon survives countless neck-breaking stunts in one piece.

But after The Naked Gun’s credits roll, viewers are treated not to a blooper, but to a unexpected gag—even for this film’s style—that tests the already well-seasoned audience’s endurance. No need to worry, though: so far, no one’s complained. Here’s why.

This summer, you’ll have a tough time finding a funnier film—critics unanimously agree on The Naked Gun. The movie has a 90% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics say the spirit of Leslie Nielsen’s original Lt. Drebin is alive and well, with Liam Neeson seamlessly picking up the torch as his successor. Many noted that beneath the goofy surface, there’s surprising depth to some of the jokes, as both Neeson and co-star Pamela Anderson “find double meaning in things you’d never expect to have any in these tough times” (per Eileen Jones of The Jacobin). Others highlight that while Neeson excels as a deadpan action star, it’s Pamela Anderson who’s the film’s biggest surprise, and the best joke belongs to her.
