Loaded Weapon 1

It’s funny how a bunch of people with little background in parody managed to create something as memorable as Loaded Weapon 1. This movie takes the best shots at Lethal Weapon, with Emilio Estevez basically playing a Mel Gibson stand-in. The film is packed with familiar faces, and everyone’s in on the joke, poking fun at all the action movie clichés. That said, I can’t quite give it a full five stars. Maybe it’s because I feel like it’s missing someone like Leslie Nielsen or Charlie Sheen—you know, that kind of wild card you just can’t forget in comedies. (25.12.2010)

Definitely one of the best pieces of the parody genre and a blast as hell! It has story, it has entertainment, it has action, and the humor is fired off with a cadence of several jokes per minute (literally), and they all hit the target because I was laughing nonstop and no joke was awkward, weak or stale. I can't remember a comedy I've been this satisfied with. This is simply a must-see affair that I'll be returning to regularly with the gang. (22.03.2023)

A great parody that most of the time uses a style of humour very reminiscent of the Zucker brothers' most famous works. It does have a few weak spots and some of the jokes miss the mark, but the mostly great acting and memorable scenes with Willis and John Lovitz drive it all back into my comedy hall of fame.
