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 ...

Great film
Advantages: all of it! Disadvantages: not much
...in total).
The first Predator movie is an action classic, with it's then pioneering in-your-face, first-person action sequences, setting a standard for action movies of the late 80's. This is also one of Arnie's best movies after the Terminator films(bar number 3), with some great "dialogue" between Arnie's character Dutch and Dillon, played by Carl Weathers - not forgetting Arnie's one-liners like "knock, knock" and "stick around".
The DVD itself ... ...scenes and outtakes.
Now, Predator 2 is not really a sequal, but a different story invloving the Predator, set in Los Angeles in the then future 1997. The film stands up on its own as a solid action movie, with a great performance from Danny Glover in the lead. It has that infamous scene with the "Alien" skull in the trophy room of the Predator ship, which spawned the Alien Vs Predator comics, and ofcourse the inevitable movie.
Again the DVD is ...

'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. They uncover a large scale drugs smuggling ring and link ... ...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 ...

2012 Movie...Good effects but predictable storyline
Advantages: Visual Effects Disadvantages: Predictable storyline
...the Mayan Calender in December 2012 and then plays out what is predicted, I think that this is the best part as it shows what is happening to different parts of the world, where as films in the same genre only show one country being on-slaughtered so to speak. From the beginning it is action packed, although the acting is a little bit dubious at times the visual effects more than makes up for it, it will keep you in your chairs throughout the entire ...

The Bigger the hit, the faster the rush, the Sweeter the revenge!
Advantages: Great action packed film, Great actors, Good storyline Disadvantages: You may not be able to get into the story-line!
...WHSmith. ***CRANK 2***
Crank 2: High Voltage was released this year and contains Jason Statham again. Chelio’s tears through the town in search for the Chinese criminal who has possession of his heart. Amy Smart, Dwight Yoakham, and Efren Ramirez revisit their roles from the original film. ***OVERALL OPINION***
I think Jason Statham is a fantastic actor anyway and I have to say that I loved this film. It was full of action and also has some funny ... ...I wouldn’t hesitate to watch Crank 2. My dad did how-ever borrow the DVD and after 30mins he switched it off as he couldn’t quite get into the film. If you like Jason as an actor and if you like his other films I think you with thoroughly enjoy this film. I would recommend it to anyone who like’s action packed films.
