Editorial Reviews and
DVD Information about
Lethal Weapon
Amazon.com essential video
Mel Gibson set aside his art-house credentials to star as a crazy cop paired with a stable one (Danny Glover) in this full-blown 1987 Richard Donner action picture. The most violent film in the series (which includes three sequels), it is also the edgiest and most interesting. After Gibson's character jumps off a building handcuffed to a man, and Gary Busey (as a cold, efficient enforcer) lets his hand get burned without flinching, there is a sense that anything can happen, and it usually does. Donner's strangely messy visual and audio style doesn't make a lot of aesthetic sense, but it stuck with all four movies. The DVD release includes production notes, Dolby sound, theatrical trailer, optional full-screen and widescreen presentations, optional French soundtrack, and optional English, French, and Spanish subtitles. --Tom Keogh

Customer Reviews for
Lethal Weapon
Must have to Complete Lethal Weapon Collection
The DVD came on time and in perfect condition. The movie stays true to the previous Lethal Weapon movies. Danny and Mel are great together. I wish they would come out with another!Lethal Weapon
Lethal Weapon Blu Ray
I love Blu Ray. Everything is crisper and clearer. And, of course, Lethal Weapon is one of the all time best movies ever!!Lethal Weapon
Don't buy this HD DVD Version
I bought this HD Dvd version simply because I had spent heavily into HD dvd players;Toshiba(4 of them;no lectures please).I need as many HD dvd movies as possible just to make my purchases relevant(more the reason, because I live in Singapore).
However, this disc is bad;nothing HD about it.Picture is sometimes ill defined and other times looks no better than an ordinary Dvd.Now that HD dvd is dead, wait for the Director's cut in Blu Ray.Lethal Weapon
OK film not great transfer to Blu-Ray
For one thing the menu on mine doesn't work and I cannot change the audio track or the subtitles. It's a default that doesn't sit well with this reviewer. The movie itself truly doesn't stand the test of time because it seems like pure drivel now and is not very relevant.Lethal Weapon
Mel Gibson and Danny Glover team up (2.7.5)
i thought this movie was not bad.it teams Mel Gibson and Danny Glover
together as two cops who couldn't be more different,and end up
partnering with each other.both hate having partners.Martin
Riggs(Gibson)is a loose cannon who likes to bend the roles,and who just
might be suicidal and/or homicidal.Roger Murtaugh is older,more
conservative,and likes to do things by the book.i wouldn't say the
movie is action packed,but it does seem to move at a fairly decent
pace.i wouldn't say it's that funny,either,although it is classified as
an action/comedy.still,i've seen a lot worse in the genre.Gary Busey
has a nice turn as a bad guy.when all is said and done,Lethal Weapon is
a 2.7/5Lethal Weapon
