Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Nothing, however, can really prepare audiences for the generally good, though offbeat, performances, gritty action and serio-comic exploits of the Good Guys vs. the Bad Guys.

Screenwriter Shane Black's explosive debut patented the modern buddy pic: brash, crass and dangerous to know.

Richard Donner directed with an expert eye for action but impaired vision for logic.

The story, which proceeds with inevitability, is enlivened by Donner's rousing action sequences.

Rating: 3/4 --
[Gibson and Glover] make a great team, and some of their early adventures are exciting. But the film runs out of gas as it turns into an extended chase sequence.

Product Description:
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 spawn three highly successful sequels.
