Welcome to the Film Pie! Brisbane based film critic Matt Toomey has reviewed thousands of movies since 1996. See what's out now, or browse the review archive.

The Naked Gun (out Aug 21) is a hit-and-miss revamp of the spoof comedy trilogy made famous by Leslie Nielsen between 1988 and 1994. A few jokes are overdone/predictable but there's also some great gags you won't see coming. Star Liam Neeson can't quite match the late Nielsen but he gives it a good crack. Grade: B.
