Oh yeah, Lethal Weapon was on tonight. the original and first movie! This is one of the greatest series in film history. I mean, you don't get any more complex in characters than you do with Lt. Riggs aka Mel Gibson. He plays a Vietnam vet. who becomes a cop, but faces suicidal tendencies because of his involvement in the war. He also had the best shot in the world practically. And if one contest that it is a shitty performance, let me just say that Director Franco Zeffirelli chose Mel Gibson for his lead role in Hamlet, a performance that has been critically acclaimed, because he was awe-struck by Mel's performance in Lethal Weapon.
Teamed up with funny man and method actor Danny Glover, these two have become one of the most beloved buddy cop team ever! I mean you don't get any funnier in terms of action movies or any more action for that matter, when these two are paired up.
All Lethal Weapons are freakin action-packed and hilarious as hell! My personal fav. is Lethal Weapon three with Joe Peshi!
Once again, Mel kicks ass! Mel Mel Mel!
