This script should have been placed in the shredder, not the recycle bin.

Is there any moment Donner won't punctuate w/ a sax? Some people may still enjoy the manic (anxious/desperate?) banter, bad puns & Pesci's "ok, ok" schtick, but even as a huge fan of part 2, when I saw this at 23, I felt it was major letdown. From the 1st scene the constant attempts at humor remove the sense that anything's at stake & neither the plot nor the action scenes are interesting/exciting enough to excuse that. Russo's a welcome addition if only bc she slightly changes the usual dynamic

Oh she likes Three Stooges and is in to martial arts, she's perfect for Riggs! Once the suicidal mulleted fury raged sex god settles down with his female doppelganger, this once proud franchise begins to stink of shit.

Rene Russo is no Patsy Kensit, both in that she isn't as attractive and that her career didn't sputter out afterwards. I like Rene and I'm glad she's still around, but I miss Patsy. At least Lethal Weapon 2 Patsy. Also there's action in this.

A very notable step down; the first one that just feels like "another Lethal Weapon movie." Chemistry between the leads remains good and there's a couple kinda neat action bits, but that's about all of its merits. Mostly fairly lazy storytelling that doesn't really rise above most episodes of most cop TV shows. And Leo Getz is reeeeaaaally annoying.

This is a pretty big step down from the first two. Watchable, but comparatively lame. The dialogue is groan-worthy without being especially clever. Still, it's what you'd expect.

Mel Gibson wears his mullet as a ponytail for a few scenes. Riggs really wants to eat the villain's eyes. Joe Pesci with bleached blonde hair. This is all I will remember.

which one is this? The one with the South Africans or the Triad people smugglers or is this the one where Danny Glover is too old for this shit? eh... they're all basically the same to me, but I do like them for what they are.

I'm supposed to like a threequel even less than the first or second ones, but what can I say? Very funny comedy, very exciting action, and Rene Russo is such a babe

The weakest of the LW films, but still a good time if you turn your brain off.

I had to see Mel Gibson's rear in this movie, and because of that I just didn't enjoy the movie. Plus Pesci is really annoying.

Mel Gibson has a love interest now! This entire film was an excuse to put in a tough female cop buddy/romance. Pretty annoying and banal overall. The cliches have worn thin by now.

Ok ok ok.... ok. Sorry Pesci impersonations don't translate well to typing. More of the same but it still has some entertaining moments.

Lethal Weapon 3 doesn't compare to the previous two movies. Joe Pesci's character is already annoying in the second movie but it is thrown into overdrive in this one. The combo of Riggs and Murtaugh are still fun but something is lost in this movie. The whole story of Murtaugh leaving the force should have been a great backdrop for all of their normal hijinx but it didn't cause much tension in the end, which it should have. I guess lightning doesn't strike three times in the same place.
