The "Lethal Weapon" series started with a bang, suffered a downgrade in quality for its 2nd outing, hit a new low with the 3rd, but then rallied its energy for this 4th and supposedly final entry. The dark edge of Riggs' character is long gone by now, but he and Murtaugh both show they can still be considered lethal weapons during the film's multiple, expertly-staged action scenes. With all the characters returning and direction once again by Richard Donner, the series as a whole has an excellent sense of continuity. If this truly is the end of the "Lethal Weapon" franchise, then they did a pretty darn good job wrapping things up nicely.
Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh, each now feeling too old to be doing what they're doing, try to stop the Chinese Triads from doing their illegal business in the U.S. Uncle Benny, Chinatown's mob boss, has imported Chinese slaves to pay for an artist to create counterfeit Chinese currency which the Triads (led by Jet Li) will use to buy the Four Fathers (heads of the Triads) back from the Chinese military. Chris Rock joins the team as a new cop and Rianne's husband. Lorna is pregnant and considers marriage with Riggs, and Leo Getz is back, now as a private investigator. Who said all movie series become worse with every installment? Lethal Weapon 4 is probably the best fourth movie in a series ever. I find it incredible that the magic is still there. But the person who really steals the whole show is Jet Li, this man is brilliant. Lethal Weapon 4 great ending to a great series, where the magic was always there.Read full review
A lot of fun! Action packed. Danny Glover and Mel Gibson are a riot together. Worth watching. Thanks!

Already had Lethal Weapon 1,2,&3,so purchased this to have complete set.Good Action/Adventure,great interaction between Gibson & Glover,though Peschie(?)gets on my nerves with his loud grateing voice & his use of 4 letter words which are really not needed.Also have problem with the subtle Anti-Gun negativity,but what can you expect from a Life Member of NRA.
arrived earlier than expected and was sealed in wrapper.
