#react #reaction #lethalweapon
There are four movies in the franchise (so far), and in my opinion, all of them are a lot of fun, and they maintain the spirit of the first. Great reaction, as usual, take care, be safe!
And they continue a great story progression that many (even other great sequels) just don't.
I almost had a mini heart attack... I thought you said "there four more movies..." I was like "WAIT!!! DID I MISS ONE?!!" Hahahaha
@@hulkslayer626 There may be another, according to recent rumors by Gibson, and to be honest, I'd watch. :)
Yes. Watch Lethal Weapon #2, #3, and #4. They are all different, but the same in a good way. Great story and characters.
That first dinner with Roger’s family is underrated as to how important it is in Riggs’ mental and emotional recovery. That’s probably his first real happy laughter since his wife died.
I love how they connect that scene in sequel.
At its core, this movie is very dark, but it also has enough humor and solid characters to give it some real heart.
Shane Black was 21 when he wrote it. This was the re-written version because it was "Too Dark" originally, think about that for a minute.
1st one was dark than LW 2 thru 4 was action comedy.
I love these two. They mesh so beautifully, and it's pure joy seeing them together. I'm so grateful that was not lost in the following films.
All of the series is great. The chemistry between Glover and Gibson is fantastic. Glad you enjoyed it.
Yes! Please do Braveheart! Had no idea you had not done this one. Bring lots of tissues.... "The Patriot" is another Mel Gibson film that will require tissues and makes for a great reaction video.
I lost my girlfriend of 37 years last year.. I understand Riggs better now than I ever did and I wish I didn't..
Absolute action classic. Not just for the action, but it would be nothing without the great characters, and that awesome dialogue.
Also that sax 🎷
@@cmondontbekrasssy551 - Sidenote - Another reason why I love the movie The Other Guys, cause they knew to throw that sax riff in there.
Mel Gibson movie recommendations
We Were Soldiers
The Patriot
Mad Max
Braveheart 👍 A must watch.
For most action movies there’s a bit of a need to suspend disbelief a bit and just kind of enjoy the movie for what it is.
Also, Lethal Weapon 2, 3, and 4. All I recommend highly.
Lethal Weapon is one of my all time favorite movie series. I feel like each movie is just a little bit better than the last, and by the end you feel like part of the family.
The "add-ons" and the character development is great. It's almost like the cop items are incidental to the family bonding story throughout.
Theres a really goofy parody of 'Lethal Weapon' called 'Loaded Weapon'. It has Samuel L Jackson and Emilio Estevez as long as a bunch of other cool cameos. You might like it given its a lot lighter and funny and goofy. No gore or over the top violence. Keep safe Mary ;)
Awesome reaction! Still one of my favorite action movies. Glover and Gibson make an awesome team and the rest of the series that I've seen (I've only seen the first three, so those are all I know) is great. 😀
Mel Gibson's scene at the beginning of the movie was soul-crushing for me as a teen when this was new. Holidays can be so difficult for people, and having lost his wife to a tragedy just makes it so much worse. He really did a great job acting for that, and I gained a whole lot of respect for him as an actor there.
This might be the "best" scene of the movie, in term of acting and story telling. Maybe one of the bests scenes ever in cinema. Mel Gibson is in my top tier list of actors.
Braveheart is a must, and Gallipoli an Australian war movie with a very young Mel Gibson is also excellent.
Lovely reaction as always Mary. Lethal Weapon is one of the few series, where they kept up the quality at a very high level until the last one. Ofc everybody has their own favorite, but if you like the first one, you can't really go wrong with the others. My personal favorite is the 2nd one, the main topic is at least as serious as in this one, still the managed to ramp up the humor, making it even more fun and easy to watch.
One of the best Buddy Cop Action Comedy Films ever made!
Before Mel Gibson was cast as Martin Riggs, Sylvester Stallone, William Hurt, Michael Biehn Robert DeNiro, Christopher Reeve, Al Pacino, Nicolas Cage, Bruce Willis, Patrick Swayze, Christopher Lambert (Lamb bear), Kevin Costner, Kurt Russell, Michael Nouri, Charlie Sheen, Harrison Ford, Mickey Rourke, Nick Nolte, Matthew Broderick Sean Penn, Michael Douglas, Val Kilmer, Tom Cruise, Jeff Bridges, Alec Baldwin, Tom Selleck, John Travolta, Liam Neeson, Dennis Quaid, Pierce Brosnan and James Belushi were considered.
Before Danny Glover was cast as Roger Murtaugh, Brian Dennehy, Nick Nolte, Clint Eastwood, Paul Newman, Warren Beatty, Jack Nicholson, Dustin Hoffman, Robert Duvall, and Al Pacino were considered.
Before David Bowie was cast as Joshua, David Bowie, James Woods, Christopher Walken, John Lithgow, John Saxon, Stephen Lang, Ron Perlman, Keith Carradine, Scott Glenn, and Tommy Lee Jones were considered.
Before Mitchell Ryan played the Villainous Gen McAllister Peter Boyle, Robert Duvall, Bruce Dern, James Earl Jones, Lee Marvin, and Richard Jordan were considered.
Shane Black's original 1985 script was a lot darker and violent than the movie: The Sniper scene in the Director's Cut, there was one dead kid on a gurney, and Riggs, rather than shoot the sniper with his Beretta, he blows up the guy with a rocket launcher, and the draft ended with a helicopter chasing Joshua, who fires a napalm missile at it, causing the helicopter to crash into the Hollywood Sign. Murtaugh kills Gen McAllister while he is driving a trailer truck filled with heroin which crashes and explodes over the Hollywood Hills, raining over the burning Hollywood Sign like snow.
Riggs kills Joshua by ripping out his eyes with his fingers.
Riggs was an assassin trained by the CIA and had been mentally unstable since the Vietnam War ended.
Murtaugh accidentally killed a fellow soldier in training with his bare hands before he left to fight in Vietnam.
Great reaction video. The actor who did the electrocution torture of Riggs was also in Die Hard, he was one of the bad guys. He was the one who took the candy bar out of the glass case when the police were trying to breach the doors.
Get on the Mel Gibson train girl!! His movies are amazing.
If you like the first one, all four Lethal Weapon movies are good, which is a rare thing.
Mel Gibson's given so many enjoyable performances it's hard to choose them, though the original Mad Max trilogy comes to mind. But he's also directed a few without starring in them: Apocalypto and Hacksaw Ridge in particular.
Since you've done Lethal Weapon, you have to do the other THREE movies.....yes....the next THREE! And do watch Braveheart as well!!
Second one is even better. So happy you started these. There are 4 in the series and I've heard they're making a fifth. Please keep watching them!
Great reaction Mary. Please watch 2, 3 and 4. You grow to love the characters and their relationships almost as if they are part of your own family. They all have great action and some of the funniest moments. Take care.
The whole series is funny. Gets more over the top, but hey, can be fun too ;-)
Gud day to you mary here's some movies that might cheer you up...Loaded Weapon (samuel jackson emilio estevez)...Hot Shots part 2 (charlie sheen)...any Mr. Bean series.
All of Gibsons movies are great. I recommend "The Patriot", "We Were Soldiers", and "Mad Max". Three excellent movies.
"I'm too old for this shit" One of the most iconic lines in action movies history 😎
Immerse yourself into an action movie, Mary.
For Mel Gibson, check out Mad Max: The Road Warrior, Gallipoli, Air America, and Forever Young.
For Danny Glover: Predator 2.
For Gary Busey: Predator 2, and The Buddy Holly Story.
For the girl who jumped off the balcony: she was Woody Harrelson's girlfriend, then (spoilers) fiancée, then wife, on Cheers.
Please react to Lethal Weapon 2, 3, and 4. Lethal Weapon 5 starts shooting this year, with Gibson directing. The previous director, Richard Donner, also did Superman and half of Superman II.
Also consider watching the 1994 western "Maverick" (same director as Lethal Weapon) starring Mel Gibson and Jodie Foster.
You absolutely need to react to Braveheart!
michael kamen's core is genius each instrument and style represents different characters. the jazzy saxophone represents roger. played by the amazing david Sanborn, the electric guitar played by eric Clapton represents Riggs. the full orchestra is the movie as a whole.
After you watch the second film, then you're ready for National Lampoon's "Loaded Weapon".. Which is a comedy spoof..
Danny Glover in real life is a big jazz fan. Thats why he got the jazzy saxophone theme, and Riggs got the guitar riff - you didnt notice, most dont - but as the characters get closer, become a team the 2 themes become a harmony.
There are 4 Lethal Weapon movies - they're all fairly good... Yes watch them all - there is a 5th on the way... I dont know how it'll work, as Murtaugh is 5 years older than Joe Biden.
There are 4 of these movies. And yes, I think you should watch all of them. Only this one is a Christmas movie. The others not so much, so you are good. I'm looking forward to LW2 because I want to find something out about you seeing as you speak Dutch. I won't go further than that.
"I'm sick of law for a second..."
*watches buddy-cop movie
😜
The "word" you're looking for is "Suspension of disbelief." It's turning off that nitpicky part of your brain and just accepting the world as it's presented. My disbelief is unnaturally heavy when it comes to supernatural horror, so they all just seem silly to me.
The thing at the range where he shot the smiley face into the target started a trend at ranges that continues to this day. People still try to do it.
The other part of that scene is the little neck roll Danny Glover does before he draws and fires. He does the same thing in the alley before firing at the General.
All four movies are worth watching, but the second one will need a little background. When it came out, thing in South Africa were reaching a boiling point with regards to Apartheid, or the segregation of the country along racial lines. That plays a big part in the overall world of the second movie, but a lot of reactors are too young to understand many of the references.
After the third movie, you should also see Loaded Weapon, which was a parody of the franchise. You need to wait until after #3 to get all the jokes.
The term you are looking for is "suspension of disbelieve", meaning that you accept the in movie world as it is, not overthinking it and going with the flow.
Suspension of Disbelief is very important to enjoying an action movie, yes. 😁
Mel Gibson, start with the one that started his career.. 1979's "Mad Max" ..
A lot of people reacting to this seem to miss the point in the final fight, that both of them are from the same special forces and it's some kind of long-running championship that they are fighting over.
The sequels get more ridiculous as they go on, but they’re all fun.
So many miss what happens in the diner after the jump, or miss the significance of it. In his trailer at the beginning, Riggs is thinking about pulling the trigger. When Murtaugh hands him his gun, he actually pulls the trigger. If Murtaugh hadn't stuck his finger in the trigger, Riggs would've killed himself.
Hi Mary👋🏽, I enjoyed your reaction to lethal weapon One of my favorite Danny Glover's movies. Hope you're having the best 2023 Mary ! ❤
Truly a Christmas movie. In real life, Darlene Love, Roger's wife, Trish, had a hit Christmas song, "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" , from 1963.
Each year, near Christmas, from 1986-2014, she sang the song on David Letterman's late night show, on American TV.
Many folks have sung the song. You Tube has several videos of them, including a few of Darlene Love.
Braveheart is a big yes! Gibson also directed that one.
You can’t watch just one of these movies. There’s a whole narrative and character growth and each movie builds on the foundation of the previous movie. It might seem like a buddy cop action packed series and nothing else, but it’s ultimately about bonding and finding a place where you belong and a family that accepts you and makes you a better person. It’s really great. All four movies are worth it.
Why do movie reactors watch all the same movies lol.
"A lot of cars were hurt in the making of this movie." "MMMMM ... is that pancakes?" . Made my day. LOL
Ridiculous ending to a really good movie.
Braveheart!
"Shoot him in the leg"
You're so cute. 🤣
Watch all lethal weapons and all die hards
You really look like Rachel Ballinger
The Last Samurai is the one set in Japan, Braveheart is the one in space with the robot and I believe a space dinosaur, been a while since I've seen it, I may have missed some things.
you need to watch Lethal Weapon 2.
I honestly like all of the Lethal Weapon movies. They all have a good story, great chemistry, comic relief, and are action-packed. I hope you watch them all, and I vote for you to see Braveheart as well. Yeah, Lethal Weapon 1 is technically a Christmas movie, but if you really like Mel Gibson and want to see him in a Christmas movie, next year during the holidays, watch the movie "Fatman," in which he plays Chris Kringle. But, it's like no traditional Christmas story you ever saw. It's more like Lethal Weapon.
Great reaction! Not every reactor is smart enough to realize this is indeed a Christmas movie (Look'en at you George from Cinebinge...) The sad thing about the boss fight at the end of the movie is, it's not too far from reality. (Yes, especially for the '80's era LAPD under Chief Gates. They would definitely stand around and watch while other officers punished an arrested person, i.e. Rodney King!) Anyhow, you should watch both Braveheart and the entire Lethal Weapon series.
One of Mr. Gibson's early movies is worth seeing, Mary... based on a novel by the great Colleen McCullough who's most famous for THE THORN BIRDS. It's called TIM (1979). It's about a worker with cognitive issues who falls in love with an older woman, one of the people who hires him for odd jobs. As you can imagine, the townsfolk think it's a predatory situation... but it's really beautiful. It was remade under the title MARY & TIM (1996), which was good, too... but that one was made-for-tv, so more difficult to find, I imagine. #MoviesWithMary
I think you'll enjoy the second one, too. All 4 are entertaining, but I think the second is best.
You will love Braveheart!
You got to watch Braveheart.
+1 for Braveheart reaction
Yes, DO BRAVEHEART!!
Mel Gibson hits include the "Lethal Weapon" series, "Mad Max" series, "Signs," "Braveheart," and "The Patriot."
Hi Marie! This movie really set the tone in the 1980s for so-called "buddy cop" movies. It was a great movie, certainly for the action, but as you probably noticed, both Mel Gibson and Danny Glover gave their characters depth and had great chemistry between them, ultimately coming to understand each other. This was a winning formula for what would go on to become a popular film franchise. As previously mentioned, you're going to really love the next one! Great review! Quick note: If you're planning on watching "Braveheart" and really like that Mel Gibson movie, then you really check out "The Patriot." Another great Mel Gibson film, IMHO.
Mel Gibson must watches:
Braveheart
The Patriot
Road Warrior
Maverick (comedy Western)
Mel Gibson directed Apocolypto.
see mel gibson in Franco Zeffirelli's hamlet (1990). see danny glover in Predator 2 (1990).
Action movies require suspension of disbelief. Most movies require that, but especially action movies.
Braveheart 1000%
Let’s go ❤Mary ❤ PS. I’m a hard working man who is fighting for custody of my kid who is 12 I have 2 stable house holds and kid wants to be with me but the courts are going in her favour. My kids mum don’t work and always going out because my kid tells me she has a babysitter . It’s making me sick that the courts seem to going in her favour even tho our kid can barely stand her.
Arguably the best Action Movie franchise ever, especially given the levels of heart and humour it delivers. I would also highly recommend the rest of the series, even more action and way more laughs.
First 2 are great, but u have to watch all 4, to get closure! The best buddy cop series is 48 hours!!! The first movie changed film forever! Also, I'ma do a screwball one, The Other Guys,
Turner and Hooch! But this and 48 hours changed movies, music, soundtracks, buddy/cop movies, comedy, race relations, forever! Also a hillarious cameo takes place in Mel's movie, Maverick!😅
Yep! Definitely watch all 4 movies! They have a great vibe!!! You'll love them!!

I'm a solo sailor. Christmas is overrated. Capt.Bob, SV ( Sailing Vessel) 27th Chance, Tampa Fl, USA 🇺🇸
Great Christmas movie, much like Trancers. #trancersisachristmasmovie
Yes...Suspend your Disbelief. Just go for the ride. It's called Escapism. The more you watch this type of movie, the more you'll "get it".
mel gibson directed Apocalypto 2006 is a good watch. i also think you would really like Maverick 1994.
Mary, Besides Braveheart other really good Mel Gibson movies: The Patriot (American Revolution), We were Soldiers (Viet Nam War) Signs (Alien invasion)
BraveHeart will change your life! It’s so amazing!
Please watch Payback from 1999 with Mel Gibson. An excellent movie!
Yes, watch Braveheart - it's an Oscar best picture movie, it's good.
Also watch "The Passion of the Christ" - directed by Mel Gibson.
"The Rock" with Sean Connery and Nick Cage is an excellent action film. Just for your consideration...🙂
Totally different feel, and maybe not suitable for a TH-cam reaction but I've also always loved 48 Hours
SHANE BLACK.
This was the movie that made him a star, and his next few movies just kept escalating the violence and style, and then everything turned and he had a long dark dry stretch, but then he found his way again.
LONG KISS GOODNIGHT
KISS KISS BANG BANG
THE NICE GUYS (please do this one!)
He has a thing for weirdly dark stories set during Christmas-- it's kind of his trademark.
I love the man.
Mel Gibson also stared in the real version of Mad Max. But down under movies aren't allowed to reacted to. It's the law. 😪🇳🇿 LOTR's is not a down under movie! 🙄😡....🤣😂😅
I think the phrase you couldn't quite remember was "suspension of disbelief".
I'd sooner recommend The Nice Guys or Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, also by Shane Black, the writer of this.
Hi, would you react to the movies: "Wasabi" with Jean Reno and "Central Intelligence" with Dwayne Johnson? please! 🙏
“I need a break from law and craziness. I know, I’ll watch Lethal Weapon!” 😁
Yup, you’ve got to watch the rest of the Lethal Weapons now, Mary. There’s so much moody sax music that you’ve got to experience!
Mary, was the phrase you were looking for "Suspension of disbelief"? Yeah, that's the movie industry's "bread & butter". The only problem is, the sharper mind you have, the harder it is to suspend your disbelief. Alot of stuff in movies is just WILDLY implausible, so NEVER feel bad about criticizing what you see on screen.
Yes to watching Lethal Weapon 2.
Also you need to watch Braveheart and Mad Max movies with Mel Gibson.
Love you Mary :)
If you're going to start with Mel Gibson, you have to watch his first movie: Mad Max. After that, you definitely need to see The Road Warrior. And probably Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome after that, though that's debatable. (Sorry, guys, it's true.)
"too old for this shit" he's 41 in this movie... That's nearly our age!?... Ok too old for living in mom's basement nevermind being a cop of 10yrs an with kid's
If you liked that,check out '48 hours' by Walter hill, with Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy, both parts.
It's one of the best action comedy there is and the banter between Eddie and Nick is legendary.
Last Samurai was an American fighting for the old ways in Japan. Brave Heart was an American acting like a Scot fighting for the old ways of Scotland. pretty much the same flick.
Nice reaction. If you are interested in following Mel Gibson's movie career here are some suggestions, but fair warning, he has had quite a career: the other "Lethal Weapon" movies ofc, "Braveheart" you know about, "The Patriot", "We Were Soldiers", "Mad Max" series, "What Women Want" is cute, and one of my favorites "Conspiracy Theory". He also directed "Apocalypto" which is a popular movie to react to and quite interesting.
If you want a great Mel Gibson film i recommend Maverick (1994) and the Mad Max Trilogy , but yes you should definitely do Braveheart as well
That's so funny. You do a reaction video to recover from a difficult week and I watch a rection video (you) to recover from a difficult work-week. It's a win-win situation. Thanks Ms. Mary.
