As Mel Gibson's character comes to terms with impending fatherhood and Danny Glover's with impending grandfatherhood, the film wends its curious way, alternating crashes and neck breakings with scenes of limp domestic...
That's all the lessons you'll learn in yet the latest Lethal Weapon, and all you'll need to know. Fourth in a chain, this movie is lightweight and lighthearted, out not to change but to entertain the world and doing a fine...
