Notes: There's a part of me that wonders if sequels should be watched and scored and be part of this list but honestly, it's all about laughs and if a sequel is funny enough to land on the 100 funniest movies of all time, so be it. This sequel is nearly as funny as the original and an absolutely hilarious movie to watch, whether you saw the first one or not. The writing is perfection as is Leslie Nielson's delivery. A little weird to see OJ in movies considering what transpired shortly after these movies were shot though his role is very minor. Priscilla Presley is tremendous, just as she was in the original Naked Gun. This movie has non-stop jokes and laugher. I'm sure these movies were inspired by the Airplane movies and they really took that style of comedy to the next level. It's what so many comedies aspire to be but fall short. Would I watch it again? Yes.   ​​
