Veteran police detective Roger Murtaugh (Danny Glover) is only days away from retiring when he and his tough partner, Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson), are roped into an important internal affairs case. Working with the beautiful, no-nonsenseVeteran police detective Roger Murtaugh (Danny Glover) is only days away from retiring when he and his tough partner, Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson), are roped into an important internal affairs case. Working with the beautiful, no-nonsense Sergeant Lorna Cole (Rene Russo) and aided by the shifty informant Leo Getz (Joe Pesci), Murtaugh and Riggs begin to close in on a black-market weapons operation involving corrupt cop and arms dealer Jack Travis (Stuart Wilson). Even though this is my least favorite of the series, it;s still a very fun and awesome. I'll give Lethal Weapon 3 an A-.… Expand

Lethal Weapon 3

1 And A Half Out Of 5

Lethal Weapon 3 seems an unnecessary installment in the franchise; a decision taken carelessly with nothing but box office in mind but frankly that audience is much smarter that "good cop bad cop" routine. The humor is added in here to lighten things up but it is added forcibly with an amateur editing on its side, directing the whole franchise towards the commercial cinema where the big explosives brings big bucks at the cost quality. There isn't a single piece of art to explore in here for there is too much of everything and no amount of nothing; it is lighter on material no matter how crispy. It falls flat on face in its technical aspects like sound department, choreography and editing. One of the main reason it doesn't work is because it lacks a better threat (the antagonist is undercooked in here) to project the appropriate stake to the audience. The screenplay by Jeffrey Boam is hefty on the failed attempts, for it never actually reaches to that scale and addition to that, Richard Donner; the director, seems to be losing its touch with the execution of it. The performance is still up to the mark by the duo Mel Gibson and Donald Glover in their parallel role and Joe Pesci as a supportive cast.

Lethal Weapon 3 is either non-working or all out of ammo as it sweats behind the screen to hold the audience for its runtime let along bedazzle them.… Expand

Strong performances by the cast despite a disappointing lack of Pesci but the plot is very forgettable and it lacks the spark that made the first film so good.

Personally, I think this film has managed to stand up to the two predecessors. There's a lot of good material here and the film seeks to innovate and keep the audience's interest: there are new characters and the film doesn't seem like an excuse for impressive and endless scenes of action, fights and shootouts. Still, it sins for not having a story as convincing, interesting and well written as it should. Confused, at times disjointed and illogical, the plot does not sustain the film and only with great generosity do we give the film the indulgences it needs to function.

The cast counts, of course, with the collaborations of Mel Gibson, Joe Pesci and Danny Glover, among other actors. Glover is very good, and the character receives, for this film, an additional dose of dramatic charge. Murtaugh never looked so tired and worn out. Gibson gives his character a less explosive tone: if in previous films Riggs seemed to be on the verge of a nervous breakdown, here he manages to have a rational, coherent train of thought, a capacity for strategic action. Pesci stops being the franchise's goofball and starts to collaborate, actively and even usefully, with the cops he's become friends with. The film also features Rene Russo, an actress of great ability who gives life to an agent of Internal Affairs, in charge of an investigation that will end up collaborating with Riggs.

Technically, it's a regular movie. The bet goes to the special effects, visuals and sound, which are really good. The sets, as well as the costumes, fulfill their role well and the cinematography doesn't stand out, but it doesn't look bad either. The soundtrack, I confess, didn't particularly catch my attention.… Expand
