The Naked Gun Analysis

Napoleon and his friends retain PG humor with comments that are so simply odd a viewer has to laugh, “What the flip was Grandma doing at the sand dunes?” Rod and his crew, though, amp up their humor level to PG-13 with drug use, crude humor, and profanities. A considerable amount of the humor in Hot Rod relies on violence to draw laughter from the audience, “You’re wrong, Frank. I’m not a kid, I’m a man. I am gonna get you better, and then I’m gonna beat you to death!” Violence is nearly absent in Napoleon Dynamite with the exception of Uncle Rico launching a steak at Napoleon’s face. There is a minute romance in Hot Rod with Rod and Denise, yet there is an even more nonexistent one in Napoleon Dynamite with Napoleon and Deb: almost nonexistent. Napoleon Dynamite is a movie that almost anyone could watch and enjoy. Hot Rod, however, is a hit or miss movie. The controversial topics of Hot Rod could also be concerning for parents, whereas parents would easily let their children watch Napoleon Dynamite.

"First, there's the shooting." On December 14, 2012, Adam Lanza walked into Sandy Hook Elementary School and took 26 lives, most of them belonging to children. Sadly, too many situations similar to this have occurred prior to and since. In January 2013, Stephen King published an extended essay called Guns exploring the issue of gun violence in the United States.

There are not many scenes that don’t contain some form of dialogue. To me the dialogue seemed to be appropriate to the times the film was portraying, although there were some cuss words used and I do not know if they were in practice at the time. I know that at one point in the movie the f word is used and also there were multiple uses of s**t. I am not sure if these were used in this time period.

The world of film has changed dramatically over the last fifty years, both in technology and perceptions on how the industry should work and how it is viewed by the public. The ending of the production code in Hollywood started the cultural change in the industry. With this restrictive institution gone, many directors chose to take advantage of this in many different ways. My favorite of these is Mel Brooks; he chose to break and push boundaries both socially and comedically. Brooks’ style often includes crude humor inlaid with deeper jokes and meaning, many fourth wall breaking moments such as the “We’re in now now” scene of Spaceballs, to stand out in the world of comedy. His masterpiece, Blazing Saddles, is one such film that did just that. Through its new found sense of humor in the post production code era and its twists on common genre tropes of the time, Blazing Saddles was able to find its place into the New Hollywood Cinema.

Some critics may say that the untidiness of scenes affects the comical nature of the film but, I think a

The movie tells the story of two hit men, a mob boss and his wife, and an aging boxer. The stories of these people are put together to create a bizarre yet funny movie.

How is it possible that a comedy involving transgender and violence would be considered one of the greatest films of its time? This does not seem so strange today, when the film industry is constantly producing movies with shocking themes. But in the 1950s this type of film brought many critics for its shocking themes, considered offensive and inappropriate by many members of the Christian community. The film became so successful that the disproval was beat by the laughter coming from everyone who watched it. Some Like It

There are several aspects of a film that will make a good comedy. A good comedy needs well-rounded characters, adventure, and a love story. If a film has well-rounded characters the viewer can relate to them in some way. If a film has adventure there is never a dull moment that will lull the viewer to sleep, and it’s packed full of crazy obstacles the characters have to pull through. If there is a love story of some kind, serious or funny, it will keep the viewer interested throughout the entire film, and keep the viewer wondering what is going to happen in the end. When a comedy has these things it will surely be a good comedic film.

A Nation filled with terror has a need to hail their hopes deeper into empty promises. Upon frequent occasions gun control has been the likely candidate for the appropriate topic and to actually confront the situation within itself. Waldman states in “The Case For Banning Guns” that “America would simply be safer if we constructed our gun laws like one of our peer countries in Europe or Asia, in which private gun ownership is relatively rare and strictly regulated.” Meaning some can own firearms once all requirements have been met and all regulations have been firmly set into place. The United States government and its possible regulations should have begun their stranglehold on Americans at the first sign of a possible situation in the past.

Firearms evidence is a key to capturing a shooter. Firearms evidence can be found at different types of crime scenes; from homicide to rape. Forensic technicians can determine the distance of a shot based on power residue, they can compare cartridge cases and bullets to particular guns possibly used at the crime scene and link them to owners, forensic technicians can also determine the sequence of shots fired and trajectories. Gunshot residue found at a crime scene can be matched with that found on suspect’s hands. When a firearm is located at a crime scene, a forensic technician must first of all diagram and photograph it before collecting it. It is important to treat every firearm found as if it were loaded. Every situation must be carefully

Not only did I find the images vulgar, I found the scene to be confusing;

The true comedy of the film comes out during run ends with Dr. Evil’s failed gadgets. The first example is when Dr. Evil gets mad at one of his henchman for not doing his job correctly, so he tries to kill him by trap door into a fire pit. What ensues is pure hilarity as his henchman shouts back up in pain that he is not dead and would like someone to help him. This brings comic relief to the audience, and then suddenly they hear a gun shot and expecting there to be silence the audience hears the henchman shout, “You shot me in my arm!” This is comedic in that the henchman cannot die even after all these horrific things are happening to him. A second great example comes from the female robots. They try to seduce Austin Powers to his death but

I just didn't get it at all!. I just kept asking myself “why would someone put this movie out.”For instance, the viagra scene made no sense, none whatsoever, what was the point of that scene? Not to mention it was very inappropriate for young viewers. I was just wondering did the director of the movie take in consideration that children would probably want to watch the movie? Nevertheless did have a drink or two while directing this incredibly horrible movie. I was just wondering if it was going to ever have a scene that would make me laugh or catch and hold my attention. That never
