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

Rating: - 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!

Rating: - 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 ... Read More
