Lethal Weapon
1987 - R - 1:50
Warner Home Video
Action
Directed by Richard Donner
Starring:
Mel Gibson
Danny Glover
Gary Busey
Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson) is no ordinary cop. He's a Mad Max gone maniacal, a man whose killing expertise and suicidal recklessness make him a Lethal Weapon to anyone he works against. Or with. Roger Murtaugh (Danny Glover) is an easy-going homicide detective with a loving family, a big house and a pension he doesn't want to lose. Imagine Murtaugh's shock when he learns his new partner is a guy with nothing left to lose: wild-eyed, burnt-out Martin Riggs. Lethal Weapon is the thrill-packed story of two Vietnam-vets-turned-cops who have just one other thing in common: both hate to work with partners. But their partnership becomes the key to survival when a routine murder investigation leads to all-out, take-no-prisoners, martial-arts-and-machine-guns war with an international heroin ring. Director Richard Donner (Superman: The Movie, The Goonies) moves that war at two speeds: fast and faster. Hot L.A. days and nights explode in one show-stopping scene after another, culminating in a no-holds-barred battle between Riggs and his Angel-of-Death nemesis (Gary Busey) - an electrifying sequence incorporating three martial-arts styles and requiring four full nights to film. Fierce, fast and frequently funny, Lethal Weapon fires off round after round of can't-miss entertainment.
