12 Lethal Kicks DVD

Advantages: Good story and a good film
Disadvantages: None come to mind

...Lethal Weapon 1 is a classic that stars Mel Gibson as a disturbed police officer. He is a good cop, but lost his wife and is a bit crazy. He joins up with another officer to solve a crime, they become friends and work well together. They get into lots of scrapes, but eventually solve the crime and catch the baddies. Very enthralling and entertaining film with lots of action. Mel Gibson is the cop in this that takes a lot of risks and his partner is a go by the book officer, they make a good team and the storyline is very good. In the end they become good friends and a team.... Read review

...Rush Hour was a decent buddy movie, but when I saw Rush Hour when it first came out I remembered seeing Lethal Weapon 4 about 2 months ago and it seemed like a rip-off.

O.K...that was funny...but there are probably even better criticisms I could level against this knee-slapper-for-people-with-a-sub-70-I.Q., but being able to walk and chew gum at the same time forced my desire for mental survival to kick in and eject the DVD after 50 minutes. You could say I'm too impatient to wait for the characters to develop...of course you'd be wrrroooonnnng! This is number 4. We all know that Moe is going to end up with a handful of Larry's hair before the first commercial break. Twice before we turned this shit-magnet off, my ol' lady predicted what would happen next. Once when the Stooges were in Larry's fishing boat and a lumbering, rusted Chinese hunk-o-nautical shit comes out... Read review
