Watch Lethal Weapon For Free

Very Cool!!!

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Lethal Weapon is a fun, exciting movie that deserves its standing in the pantheon of great action films. Contrary to popular believe this film didn't make Mel Gibson a star- He already was one after Mad Max but it did make him a household name in the US. He and Danny Glover are amazing as the mismatched buddy cop duo and one can say Lethal Weapon restarted the sub genre after 48 hours had done so a few years ago. Featuring great sequences, dialogues worth remembering and great pace Lethal Weapon is a must watch.

Lethal Weapon is the eighties action film that kicked off the whole buddy-cop trope in Hollywood. It's directed by Richard Donner (Superman II) and penned by Shane Black (Predator). Our cast of stars features Danny Glover and Mel Gibson in the lead roles with Gary Busey as a henchman to the main villain, The General played by Mitchell Ryan. I decided to pair the film with a nice Indica like King Louis XIII from Marley Natural. It's a relaxing strain that provides a good deal of happiness. A good combination to dive right into a badass picture like this. The earthy tastes and piny aromas pair well with a good beer too. If that's your kind of thing. The film follows the pairing of two LAPD detectives. Martin Riggs is a detective that is psychologically broken and emotionally damaged following the death of his wife. Roger Murtaugh is a veteran cop that works hard to support his family. They get paired together as partners working various crimes and bonding. Roger is constantly tested by Riggs' inherently psychotic behavior. He almost gives up. However, after things go south and the duo bands together to put an end to a very dangerous group of drug smugglers called Shadow Company. The film features cheesy action film acting and witty dialogue, mostly between Gibson and just about everyone he comes in contact with. His Martin Riggs character is iconic. He stands as one of the best cops in movie history. Danny Glover is the perfect straight man but it's kind of unfortunate that he was so tight cast. Busey is badass in this movie. He looks awesome and does a great job of projecting himself as menacing. Tom Atkins is good too, his role is minimal, but he gives it everything. That is up until his death, which is rather goofy looking. Lethal Weapon also has an amazing soundtrack provided by Michael Kamen and Eric Clapton. Yes, that Eric Clapton. The howling saxophone and blazing guitar set upon a sprawling Los Angeles cityscape provide an amazing atmosphere for the story. The soundtrack provides a great technique for building suspense that gets paid off with intense action scenes. This movie is a hell of a ride. It builds an amazing world that gets explored at break-neck speed. In some cases it's far too fast-paced to be bad. All of the faults with the film are steamrolled by the constant action. The fight scenes are brutal and unrelenting. The final showdown is a thing of pure eighties glory. I love it. It's a classic that should be enjoyed by everyone at least once! There's a reason that It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia loves it so much. The King Louis XIII paired really well with Lethal Weapon. It tasted so good, I ended up having an extra snapper or two. The cannabis had me feeling really relaxed and sunken into my couch. The uplifting effects had me alert and ready for the suspense of the action scenes, which were numerous. The effects were long lasting and are still prevalent when writing this review. Although it feels great, the taste and smell are the leading factors with this particular batch from Marley Natural. Check it out if you can!

LETHAL WEAPON is the film that kick-started the popular franchise and helped to usher in a new wave of buddy-buddy comedy cop movies. Watching it today, it does feel a little slow and dated in parts, with often laboured comedy and plotting that takes a long time to get anywhere. The reason the film still works lies in the casting of Mel Gibson and Danny Glover, two underrated actors who share an irresistible camaraderie.You know the score by now: Gibson's the crazy one (and never crazier than here), Glover the straight man, his by-the-book partner. The latter in particular is excellent, boosting the humour quotient of any given situation. The big stunt and explosion scenes are all well and good, although this doesn't really quality as an action flick until the last half hour, which has some good shoot-outs and a memorable torture-by-electrocution set-piece featuring DIE HARD's Al Leong. Gary Busey's larger-than-life baddie is the scene-stealer here, so it's a pity about all that doubling and dated choreography in the final scene.

Lethal Weapon actually starts out as a serious film where Mel Gibson is an officer so despondent over the loss of his wife that he engages in incredibly reckless behavior. When that doesn't get him a line of duty death for a bit you see him contemplating suicide. No one will work with him and Danny Glover newly assigned to him is having second, third, and fourth thoughts. But they gradually warm up to each other as Glover and his family kind of provide a new stability for him. Also that shared Vietnam experience.That Vietnam thing comes in handy on the case these two have now. A former Army General who had a kind of stealth command of assassins Mitchell Ryan has gone heavy into the drug business via the contacts he made in Vietnam. His top assassin Gary Busey is his number two. These two think that Gibson and Glover got certain information about a big shipment coming in that their partner here told them before he was killed. That sets up all the action which is a cross between the Dirty Harry and the Indiana Jones features. The first Lethal Weapon got an Oscar nomination for Sound. Not sure if the three succeeding films got that kind of recognition. But they made money.
