Lethal Weapon

Advantages: Great action, very funny
Disadvantages: It looks an old film and is but this is not always a bad thing

Lethal Weapon are classic films, they are ones that you must watch, everyone I know has seen at least one of them, they are brill, each one is as good if not better than the last. All four lead on to the next. This whole set are really funny as well as action packed, I think that you need to watch all 4 one after another to get the full affect. Mel is a great actor and these films just relay that. The first is just as good as the fourth, well worth ...

'You're not trying to draw a psycho pension. You ARE crazy!'

Advantages: Great buddy cop movie
Disadvantages: None really

...on is the 1987 blockbuster Lethal Weapon, where Donner directed Gibson and Danny Glover as a mismatched pair of detectives on the trail of a gang of drugs smugglers. The film was hailed an immediate success, both critically and commercially. The Plot Career police detective sergeant Roger Murtaugh is teamed up with loose cannon and recovering alcoholic Martin Riggs to investigate a murder.

...the 80s, loook no further. Lethal Weapon has everything you need from a buddy movie, with high levels of comedy infiltrating the dangerous action thriller plotline. I found the film intense and enjoyable, with some clever action sequences considering the level of special effects available 20 years ago. It is considered the stepping stone for buddy cop movies such as Rush Hour and Bad Boys, and remains one of the best action films in my view. The ...

Review of Crank (DVD)

The fast was fast and the furious were furious

Advantages: Effects, Performance
Disadvantages: Ending

Overall the movie turned out not to be as boring as I thought it would be. When I heard about it I thought "great another movie about fast racing cars". After wathching it, my opinion changed. The actors/actresses performances were very well done. The effects made you hold your breath untill the sence was over and want to know what happens next. Being that I watched it after the fourth one was already out It was perfect Knowing ther was more to come. ...
...see this back round info.The reason it was good instead of excellent was because of the ending, which was really cool but could have been better. Unfortunetley, withut spoiling the movie there is only so much I can tell you. Thankyou for reading and I hope It was Excellent. ...
