...devious Triad crime that challenges Murtaugh and Riggs so is, happily, exceptionally amenable to pyrotechnical screen displays. The film delivers all the broken glass and gas explosions your heart could desire. Action sequences max out on adrenaline, like one on the freeway where Riggs fights a thug in a moving prefab home, gets dragged behind an oblivious truck and then manages to jump back into the waiting car of Murtaugh, who promptly drives through a glass-walled building.

Among her more exotic crimes: stealing a $6,500 fur at a Washington piano bar and enslaving illegal Mexican immigrants to work as maids. Kenneth has been convicted of robbery and assault.

...quiet tree-lined streets and well-dressed Westchester residents as a mask. I feel a little unsafe and a little less free than I did in June. The E.R. scared me, but it was not shocking. In a city, we know to be wary of crime and of other people. I respect city residents for their courage. They take measures to keep themselves safe so they can live in a community that does not wear a mask...
