Loaded Weapon 1 (1993)

I fell asleep

Emilio Estevez is a riot but even he couldn't save this film. Though it had a couple of funny gags, the rest of the spoof just felt silly in an unfunny way and mostly on the boring side. Sam Jackson was hit or miss in this, and all I have to ask is, what ever happend with the whole microfilm thing?? All in all, just plain weird and not so funny. October 14, 2008

Of course it was funny !

Emilio Estevez is almost as funny as his brother Charlie was in the "Hot Shots" series. Forget about SPOILERS! Who cares? Two of the funniest scenes for me was the interrogation of Miss Destiny Demeanor (Kathy Ireland) of the Sharon Stone - Basic Instinct parody. In which she continually crosses over her legs, while in a chair, with the attendant crowd of detectives sitting in "bleachers" waiting to catch a glimpse of her "you-know what." Finally, you see a beaver materialize in the style of a "Caddyshack Gopher."

And then the shootout that York (Estevez) and Luger (Jackson) come upon while looking for a suspect; with the "Chips" guys, Ponch and John (who never pulled their guns out during the real show). The shootout is so loud and intense that Ponch has to shoot at John (narrowly missing him) just to get his attention.

Too many sight gags to list, that'll bust you up. Funny, funny, movie with loads of cameo appearances.

National lampoon's Loaded Weapon 1

A real spoof of various movies. Some of the actors in this film are no longer with us,but it's nice to see them in this comedy/spoof. lots of cameos by some of the big name actors. Not a chick flick,unless you are into action movies. Not for the young children.
Definately a "keeper" for your video library. February 8, 2008

Collect cop cliches, mix. Hilarity ensues.

Lampooning everything from Lethal Weapon, to Die Hard, to Basic Instinct, this movie puts together all the cop-action movie cliches you've ever seen, throws them in a blender, and shoots them at you with a liberal dose of humor. December 11, 2007

Good, but a bit of a let down

This is a very funny spoof of not just Naked Gun and Lethal Weapon, but every other movie in the genre. There's so many, I've even noticed a few that I missed the first few times I watched it.

I would have given it 4 stars, but the DVD is a let down for those who have seen the movie in theaters or on TV. Like too many others do when transfering to DVD, many scenes have been cut out. Often, these missing scenes are not missed, but with this movie, all of the parts are good ones and in some places, were essential to the movie making for some confusing lines later on.

Still, I think this is a very funny parody of action movies and is worth the time. August 1, 2006
