Lethal Weapon 1 (Blu-ray)
 
"Blu-Ray Disc, Beyond High Definition."
 
 
Features: DVD
 
With over seven minutes of previously unavailable scenes, the director's cut of Lethal Weapon is a long-overdue present for fans. Riggs's solitary homelife and the tragic loss spurring him in a reckless disregard for his own safety now come into greater focus. We see that recklessness is new scenes underlining the differences between the two cops. Murtaugh, just 50, needs reassurance about his skills at a firing range. Riggs, not caring if he sees another birthday, coolly walks into a schoolyard sniper's field of fire. All the humor and adrenaline that made this original an entertainment milestone are here, too. No scenes have been removed. But new action and new insight are now included. Include yourself in the excitement.System Requirements:Running Time: 109 MinutesFormat: BLU-RAY DISC
 
"...a lot of action...but the real fun is watching the two stars play with their characters and off each other."  At-A-Glance Film Reviews
"Hard-boiled, high-voltage, hotheaded police thriller. Packs an undeniable wallop."  Janet Maslin, The New York Times
"...fast paced and entertaining..."  Leonard Maltin's Movie & Video Guide
"A pistol-packing, snap-crackling thinking-man's thriller."  Rita Kempley, The Washington Post
"...this movie thrilled me from beginning to end..."  Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

 


Editor's Note

Two tough Los Angeles cops, one who carries a lethal weapon (Glover) and the other who is one (Gibson), are teamed as partners in a highly unusual case involving a massive international ring which has its roots in Vietnam - a place they are both all too familiar with. This film, with its fresh, energetic combination of comedy, drama and action, has managed to spurn three highly successful sequels.
