Director: Richard Donner
Cast: Mel Gibson, Danny Glover, Joe Pesci, Rene Russo, Stuart Wilson

Lethal Weapons 1 and 2 were entertaining action films, but the third part is a waste of time. While Riggs and Murtaugh try to nail a cop-turned-arms dealer, an LAPD detective (Russo) is on their case. The plot is thin, the explosions are big and loud, and the whole thing is dull and redundant. The outrageous humour is the only reason to watch this. Followed by one more sequel.
