Personally, I always had a weak spot for those ‘Lethal Weapon’ flicks. Even if this sequel is not as highly regarded as its predecessor, I still think it is actually pretty good. Indeed, I just saw it again yesterday and I was amazed about how good Mel Gibson and Danny Glover were in this. Indeed, they were really badass, quite often really hilarious and they still had this great chemistry tog... read more

" I was in a very "critical" mood when I first watched this. Ready to smash it thinking it can't possibly be better than the first. When the credits rolled I was instantly a sucker for this movie. I couldn't help loving it. It's not better than the first but it got better by minute. It clearly ripped off many aspects of Die Hard (German villains, the hand-to-hand combat in the end, etc.) but I was ready to forgive it when I realised the action scenes were convincing, more comedy was added yet st"

"March 7 "Mr. Murtaugh has a gun." "Yeah, but it's an old gun and he's not a very good shot." This was just as great as the first movie. It has great action sequences, funny humor and everything you would want from a Lethal Weapon sequel. "

“Personally, I always had a weak spot for those ‘Lethal Weapon’ flicks. Even if this sequel is not as highly regarded as its predecessor, I still think it is actually pretty good. Indeed, I just saw it again yesterday and I was amazed about how good Mel Gibson and Danny Glover were in this. Indeed, they were really badass, quite often really hilarious and they still had this great chemistry together. In my opinion, Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh must be the best cop duo and this time around, there was no need for any introduction and we could get on with the action right away. This time, they also added Joe Pesci in one of his most famous roles, Leo Getz. Pesci seems able to play only two types of characters, dramatic (‘Raging Bull’, ‘Goodfellas’, ‘Casino’) or comedic (‘H” read more
