One of the best sequels ever that for some reason gets left out of “best sequel “ conversations. And the reveal (l won’t spoil for our reactors) is heartbreaking.
@@Viglin123 I was just thinking the same thing. Whenever someone starts a conversation about "sequels that are just as good or better than the original" people always bring up Aliens and Terminator 2, but no one ever brings up Lethal Weapon 2, which I think is much better than the (still good) original.
I used to prefer LW2 over 1, it's an incredible sequel. But over the years I've come to appreciate how strong the first one is, it really is a perfect film. The only knock I have against 2 is that it kind of makes the tension of Riggs' suicidal nature in the first half of LW1 redundant, because we know he's going to survive, but imo it's worth it. Love Joss Ackland and Derrick O'Connor's villains too.
absolutely. I've always considered it one of the only sequels that's actually actually good. opinion on this kinda thing varies, and there's a lotta films I haven't seen, but empire strikes back, lotr, this... star trek II the wrath of khan.... not much else. oh, the dark knight of course.
This whole series (all 4 movies) is about character development and evolution. Absolutely one of the best movie series in history. A fantastic story about both Riggs and Murtaugh, and their growth together as "family". Because of my own personal history (I was widowed in 2006, and subsequently went through an "I don't care if I live or die" period, before learning how to just "get on with life"), I identify more with Riggs than Murtaugh, but I have to say, the way they go from being "forced partners", to being "family" is great storytelling. All 4 movies tell that story, in a very natural progression of relationships and story. More characters are added as the story goes along, but I highly recommend watching all 4 movies. Taken in context, I don't think y'all will be disappointed in the story's progression.
Fun facts: the name Martin means “martial” or “soldier” and Murtaugh is an archaic word meaning “navigator.” Their names refer to what they needed to be for each other. Roger Murtaugh was a navigator for Martin Riggs during a difficult time when Martin needed a North Star to guide him. Martin was a soldier when Roger needed one to help him save his daughter. They both literally saved each others’ lives by being who they are.
Mel's scene in the trailer where he's contemplating killing himself is the most powerful scene he's ever done IMO. So dark and sad, it's such a pivotal scene to see the true pain his character is going through. Amazing performance.
Best buddy cop film ever. Gibson and Glover's chemistry was second to none. Gibson really nailed this role and deserved a Best Actor nomination. Totally agree to your points about the Murtaugh family. They felt like a real family and not some forced, manufactured, cookie-cutter Hollywood family. For example, the 2 younger kids doing that rap to mock their older sister's crush on Riggs felt natural and funny.
Little alrming discovery i found out about gary busey: in 1988 he had a serious motorcylce accident he was pronounced dead for two hours and came back 💪 dude is a true survivor and legend of hollywood, he really doesnt get praised enough. People are so quick to call him batshit crazy without taking the time to understand what he's been through. Great reaction ladies 💯💯
I have watched many reactions to this movie and I am always amazed at how people don't understand why the fight at the end between Riggs and Joshua had to happen. Like, hasn't the final "mano a mano" battle between protagonist and villain been a standard trope of stories since...forever? No you can't "just shoot him"! Where is the drama and tension and victory in that??? And also, I always thought it was implied that the two of them had beef since the war (if not personally then between their factions) which is why Riggs challenged if Joshua wanted "another shot at the title". At which point you have to take him down personally to show total humiliation and defeat. I wish more of the humour would have made it into this reaction too. It's not just about Riggs being Lethal. His personality and charm really matter as well.
Nah it's really about how the times have changed (for the better). It's funny now looking at shit like this, but back then that kind of macho bullshit was serious and people ate it up. But in the end...it's just macho bullshit. Perfectly understandable modern generation doesn't "get it". They've evolved past it :)
@@hadoken95times changed and people and society got soft. I prefer my action films from the 80s; tough guys, bullets and none PC! This movie isn't for these two reactors.
@@hadoken95 The modern generation has not evolved past it, they just do it in a different way. The moderne generation fight for online status and cancel each other on social media. Don't worry, the modern generation after you will change it up again and claim to have evolved past you.
I know it’s on patreon, but us lowly TH-cam viewers are disappointed that some really great character parts were edited out! Anyway, great reaction. I recommend the entire series. They’re all great in their own way and excellent when viewed as a whole tetralogy.
You're right..i just startet and i really missed the complete jumper scene. Saw better edited versions. I know, its TH-cam..i'm odinary subcriber..damn, i faggin hate patreon...
@@stefanstock953 Yep. That whole scene and the “you really are crazy” part really drive the character development and I think was important to make the YT edit for us to see the reactions.
@@te1013 exactly..i had to step back from reaction videos..i think they lost slowly their magic..i felt in love with such a great idea of a content bout 3-4 years ago. i feel its not bout the reaction itself anymore..more and more idiots stepped on that train and its gets worst. It had to come so, people and their greed..its quite only bout getting views, getting YT buttons, reaching for donations, getting patreons, its kinda sad...movie reactions now, on YT, feels like clickbaits, teasing you and than ditch you, with an evil smile they tell you.."if you wanna see the full reaction, become a patreon, for only 8 bucks a month...nope, thats it..i go back to the good old eighties. No smartphones, no social media, no scams, no cyber mobbing, no sick tikfock where every sick motha can upload sick shit, no karens, no worldstarrr....NO NOISE..back to nature and be free...thats where i belong...stay safe, buddy PEACE
YES! I just watched and mentioned the over editing. I suggested to view the POPCORN 🍿 IN BED CHANNEL and their edit and the scenes; New partner introduction, The jumper scene and RIGGS sniper speach. ☮️
What most people forget is both Murtaugh and Riggs were both Vietnam Veterans! They just served different years and are separated by a dozen years in Age! 🙄🤨😎
Also what makes all of the LW movies so enjoyable is that the banter between Riggs and Murtough are completely Ad-libbed and unchscripted which should tell a lot about how much they stayed in character... The only time they said a line was only to fit what the story was about..
really enjoyed this movie and reaction. I was disappointed some of the best parts edited out in beginning and we as men delt with things and moved on. Maybe a handful needed therapy but most of us just moved on, raised great families and become men not males :-))
They set the standard for buddy cop and action movies. All four films are character driven and deal with some real dark subject's Murtaugh as a hardworking protective father and husband and Riggs as a pain and rage filled shell of a man limping along on duty alone. The are both such sympathetic characters who make you love them very quickly.
Oh wow, just found you ladies today. And to start with Lethal Weapon?! You made my day. You must watch all four, this is back when they knew how to do sequels. Each is better than the last.
This movie made me realize that Gibson would have been an amazing Wolverine. The look on his face and in his eyes after the jump scene when Murtaugh pushed him and realized he was suicidal was the catalyst for me.
It's the end of the fight, Murtagh is screaming for Riggs to kill the bad guy, and Riggs realizes just what kind of influence he's had on Murtagh. That was the whole point.
Great reaction! I always love watching people react to this movie and Mel Gibson as Riggs. He’s so great in this. Everyone is. The entire series is incredible. Riggs and Murtaugh is a friendship for the ages. Gold standard, as someone said.
You both said you love the family, so I can pretty much guarantee you will enjoy the rest of the movies and even the TV show. The family is integral to the entire franchise in wonderful ways.
Brings a joy to my heart to see you guys watching some 'classics'. I put that in quotes b/c I tend to think of actual classics as being older, like Casablanca and the like. But, these are getting on in years, too, and am happy to see you guys give these a... whirl... and if you like them, great. If not, there are still plenty of others that you guys might.
The screenplay was written by Shane Black which was his first sold screenplay at 23 years old in '85. He was Hollywood's first rock-n-roll screenwriter. His buddy cop reinvention update at the time started a modern genre craze of two mismatched partners thrown together to solve that films' mcguffin or mystery box, if you will, and that 80's trend has never gone away. Black went on to do future at the time instant classics such as 1991's Bruce Willis neo-noir in coke The Last Boy Scout, Geena Davis as the original Jason Bourne, gender-reversed amnesiac assassin in '96's The Last Kiss Goodnight with Samuel L. Jackson, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang with a just pre-Iron Man's Robert Downey Jr. showing his incredible acting chop range playing the anti-Tony Stark teamed with Val Kilmer which is a must-see and The Nice Guys from 2014 starring Ryan Gosling as his greatest cinematic comedic creation put to screen who steals every scene he's in joined by Russell Crowe in a caper set at the just tail end of the late 70's to, what else?, solve a crime. Also a must-see. Shane Black rules pretty hard.
The neighborhood was filmed on the Columbia/WB Ranch. I started my career on the WB main lot as well as the Ranch. I worked on a project for WB Television and we filmed a few episodes with the house. The house was practical. Meaning it actually had four walls and interior rooms. Unfortunately the entire Ranch was demolished in 2023. The Ranch dates back to the 1930s all of that history is going.. 😢
It's a fantastic film and it's always worth a re-watch whenever I see it on TV. It's also one of the most consistent film series out there, IMO, with the real-life friendship between Gibson and Glover being the glue that keeps it all together. I hope you'll continue the series.
When the black kid said his mom said that cops shoot black people, 1 it's true and 2 you can see the other black cop look to the side like " yeah his mom is right cops do shoot black people
This is the best movie series . I watched them from when I was a little kid. As each one came out I would be there. Like growing up with Mertuaghs family.
The first Lethal Weapon is like the darker, more adult and serious ones, the sequels are a lot of fun, full of action and jokes, more blockbusters, you will love them.
Richard Donner was an amazing director. Superman, Goonies, Lethal Weapon, Conspiracy Theory (Underrated, review it!), The Omen. The man could do anything.
This is the greatest cop action thriller ever. The sequels are terrific as well. I remember seeing number 4 in the theater and having a total blast. I hope you ladies watch them all.
ORIGINALLY IN THE SCRIPT THERE WAS NEVER GOING TO BE A SEQUEL IN FACT THEY ACTUALLY SHOT A DIFFERENT ENDING WHERE THEY SLIP OFF GOING THEIR SEPARATE WAYS.... THEY QUITE LITERALLY CHANGED IT THE LAST MINUTE DURING THE SHOOT.... Everyone one the set loved how great of a chemistry both guys had... That they lobbied to changed it last minute.... And the fact that this one film made three more is amazing.... So please guys come back and watch 2-4 their just as fun as this one...
that was one of the best reactions of this film 👏. i especially liked how you pointed out the part where Riggs answers (truthfully) on whether he liked murtaugh's wife's cooking - that showed me you gals were on a different level lol. honestly, i didn't think two ladies would understand the dynamic of two dudes better than other dudes
FYI *SHADOW COMPANY* WAS A REAL THING GOING ON DURING THE LADDER PARTS OF THE VIETNAM WAR.... One thing through each of the sequels is how each movie takes what was going on in current events during those years.
Shane Black loves Christmas. This, Iron Man 3, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, The Long Kiss Goodnight, and The Nice Guys. None considered Christmas movies because much like Die Hard they take place at Christmas but aren't about the holiday.
The golden standard of the Buddy Cop genre. The whole franchise is worth checking out
it IS that.
Indeed.
Lethal Weapon 2 is JUST as good as this one. Definitely worth doing a reaction to. :)
One of the best sequels ever that for some reason gets left out of “best sequel “ conversations.

@@highstimulation2497 Terminator 2 & Godfather 2, are also gold standards among sequels. There's others, of course.
This movie redefined the buddy action film, Gibson and Glover have better chemistry than most married couples 😂
It's better cause you marry just for the mortgage
@@HABO2210 'murica = Whole planet?
Because marriage has nothing to do with it. Lol!
After loss it’s incredibly important for grieving people to know that they’re not alone. Murtaugh and his family really save Riggs. It’s beautiful.
As If Men were this Supported in real Life At all...
It's NOT the case.
women: this generation of men all needed therapy
men: these guys are so cool
Well, we see just how healthy men are these days.
Gen X love that generation of men❤
We are doing just fine 🙂
This generation of men, were actually men. Even with whatever trauma they endured.
this generation of women needs men like they

Trust me you guys want to watch the whole franchise. It's incredible. I'm getting teary eyed just thinking about it
The Lethal Weapon series never gets old to me. Y’all have been watching a lot of my favorites lately
You are in for an amazing ride. All four movies are great. This is my favorite cop tandem. And all four are definite rewatches.
YES! This wisdom is why you are the chosen one! I marathon these once a year. I commented on their over editing but these ladies are fun! ☮️

Freaking Awesome! As if I didn't love these movies enough already!! ☮️
Danny Glover has great screen presence! Always makes any movie better!
This series is one of the few where all the movies are just as good. Most series start falling off, but these movies keep the high quality.
Please continue with the franchise. So good and the relationships are amazing!
their friendship and chemistry on-screen only builds higher and higher with each movie, definitely check out the sequels
This movie is so great. You’re never too old to watch this shit for the first time!
👏 (what you did there)
Mel's scene in the trailer where he's contemplating killing himself is the most powerful scene he's ever done IMO. So dark and sad, it's such a pivotal scene to see the true pain his character is going through. Amazing performance.
And it took him days to get in the headspace to do that scene.
Please, please watch the whole series... you won't regret it.

Their chemistry was second to none when it started, but it felt forced by #3 let alone #4.
I don't think society has shaped our definition of what is beauty as much as our sight has.
Die Hard, Gremlins and Lethal Weapon are my top 3 Christmas movies
Yeeees.

That lighter under the arm thing was a show of intensity. Joshua was special forces, trained not to react to pain like we do.

gotta watch them all now looking forward to you seeing LW2 with the Late Joss Ackland RIP
Whole franchise is must see. Enjoy the journey
Shane Black wrote this & directed Iron Man 3! Maybe that's why that helicopter attack on the house at a sea cliff looked so familiar!
He was also in Predator as Hawkins-the guy that wore glasses.
It's a fantastic film and it's always worth a re-watch whenever I see it on TV. It's also one of the most consistent film series out there, IMO, with the real-life friendship between Gibson and Glover being the glue that keeps it all together.

Wow Kristine. That smile at the beginning just brightened up my screen. Love the vids, you ladies are great!
The girl playing Mourtough’s daughter was only three years younger than Mel Gibson in real life😂
The whole series is FANTASTIC👍👍👍.
Lethal Weapon, the second best Christmas movie. The first being Die Hard.
“Don’t call him ‘Lethal Weapon’ if we’re not gonna get lethal!”
Me: Oh, just wait 😂
PLEASE BOTH YOU GUYS COME BACK FOR 2-4 PLEASE 🙏
Very surprised to see this on here but also extremely happy, love these movies soooo much!!!!
This is the best movie series . I watched them from when I was a little kid. As each one came out I would be there. Like growing up with Mertuaghs family.

Richard Donner is a great director he directed so many good movies like Superman,The Omen, Assassins, Mawerick and so many others. 😊
His one weakness was background/secondary dialog and ADR.

Happy Thanksgiving Jaby, Achara, Andrew, Steph, Syntell, Kristin, Vivian and others, stay safe gang!!!
There are 4 of these and they only get better. The family story expands across all of them.
I don't think I've seen a reaction to this where one person was so jacked up they spend half the movie yelling the name of the movie AT the movie. 😂👌🏼
This is the greatest cop action thriller ever. The sequels are terrific as well. I remember seeing number 4 in the theater and having a total blast. I hope you ladies watch them all.
Mel Gibson reminds me of Wolverine and would've been perfect for the character👍

THEY QUITE LITERALLY CHANGED IT THE LAST MINUTE DURING THE SHOOT.... Everyone one the set loved how great of a chemistry both guys had... That they lobbied to changed it last minute.... And the fact that this one film made three more is amazing....
So please guys come back and watch 2-4 their just as fun as this one...
This series is awesome! In my opinion, 2 is the best, and I LOVE 4 (many people don’t agree with me here). Everyone has a different opinion though.
Fun fact: This is the sister movie to Die Hard. Mel Gibson and Bruce Willis almost had each others roles in these two Christmas movies.
They do a brief team up in, Maverick!
It's better that it's not a phone call that prevents Righs from killing himself, but him just deciding not to do it.
Since you knew PV was near Long Beach, the opening scene to the movie where she jumps off the building, that building is in downtown LB on Ocean Blvd.
Thank you, and just wait until you see 2, and 4.
that was one of the best reactions of this film 👏. i especially liked how you pointed out the part where Riggs answers (truthfully) on whether he liked murtaugh's wife's cooking - that showed me you gals were on a different level lol. honestly, i didn't think two ladies would understand the dynamic of two dudes better than other dudes
It's a little more than just a "buddy cop" movie. They are family films. Watch them all!
Got 3 more to check out.Even better, with the introduction of a character called Leo Getz.
The daughter looks 17 but she was 27 when the movie was made.
Damn I didn't know that
Every Lethal Weapon movie is great. Lethal Weapon 5 is coming in theaters soon.
Die hard and lethal weapon were the greatest Christmas movies of all time
Long kiss goodnight and The ref
You two ladies are in for a damn good series of movies here. All four of these movies are fantastic. Good show ladies keep up the good work.
LW5 is in the works. Filming was to start in 2023, but there has been delays by the studio. Gibson is to direct at last report.
