Lethal Weapon 1
Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson) is a suicidal cop who has just recently lost his wife and doesn't care if he lives or dies. The other, well he's the opposite. Roger Murtaugh (Danny Glover) has only just turned 50 and has a few more years until his retirement. As they say opposites attract. Well not all the time, as Roger finds out.

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.

I thoroughly enjoyed all four films. I think my favourite film was 2 because it was funny as well as packed with action. The plots are very well done. The main actor is Mel Gibson, he plays the role of Los Angeles policeman that doesn;t always play by the rules. His acting in all ...
