“Street Fighter” is Diverse, But That’s It
Street Fighter cannot be genuinely recommended, even if it is abundantly clear that much effort was expended.

Cody Garrett Runnels Rhodes (born June 30, 1985) is an American professional wrestler and actor, currently signed to WWE. The son of Dusty Rhodes and half-brother of Dustin Rhodes, he first rose to prominence in WWE from 2006 to 2016 as Cody Rhodes and Stardust, winning multiple tag titles and two Intercontinental Championships. After leaving WWE, he competed in ROH, NJPW, TNA, and the independents, capturing the ROH World, IWGP U.S., and NWA World Heavyweight Championships. A founding Executive Vice President of AEW in 2019, he became the inaugural three-time AEW TNT Champion before returning to WWE at WrestleMania 38 in 2022.

Naked Gun: The New Police Squad Team delivers exactly what fans want: relentless, expertly crafted chaos that honors the original while cranking everything up to eleven. The gags fire at machine-gun pace—sight jokes layered with wordplay and physical comedy so outrageous it borders on art. It's gleefully self-aware without being cynical, silly without being stupid, and maintains that perfect ZAZ-style balance of treating absolute absurdity with complete seriousness. The film knows exactly what it is: a comedy missile designed for maximum laughs, and it hits its target with surgical precision. Pure, unhinged entertainment that proves spoof comedy still has plenty of life left in it.
One of THE most frustrating trends in the mainstream film industry over the last several decades has been the onset of comedy efforts that seem SO focused on being crude and/or gross-out in all ways possible. That, at least for me, makes them no longer funny.
