Lethal Weapon 4 (1998)

Action & Laughs - what more do you want?
OK, it may have been stretching it to go for a fourth Lethal Weapon
film. I mean, do you remember Rocky 4 or Death Wish 4? But, this film
was a departure from the rest and, as such, deserves some credit for
what it tried to do. You can't argue with a film that includes Mary
Ellen Trainor, Mel Gibson, Danny Glover, Joe Pesci, Rene Russo, Chris
Rock and Jet Li. There is going to be action, there is going to be
comedy, and there is going to be some schmaltzy romance.
The addition of Rock, along with Trainor and Pesci was a hoot. The
laughs never stopped throughout the movie. I am a HUGE Chris Rock fan
and he did not disappoint.
The action in the film was hot and heavy. The only thing that was bogus
was Gibson defeating Jet Li. Come on, nobody defeats Jet Li. He is
indestructible and I refuse to believe that Gibson can beat him. But, I
have to admit that this was the best fight sequence I have seen.
This is not prime rib, it is chocolate cake. Chocolate cake is good,
especially with ice cream. So sit back, and enjoy your dessert. It
doesn't much more flavorful than this.
