LAPD
officers Riggs and Murtaugh are back, trying to take down an
undercover gun smuggling operation from within their own department.
Murtaugh is days from retiring, Riggs meets his dream woman in the
form of IA officer Russo, and Pesci reprises his role as Leo
Getz.
The magic
is still here in this third outing and the film oozes chemistry
galore between the lead actors. LW3 is just as much fun as the
previous two films, and entertaining enough to recommend, even though
the main storyline and bad guys are the worst in the series. Pesci
is back, although a little more annoying than funny this time around,
and Russo is terrific as a lethal weapon in her own right. Watch for
the characters and funny moments and forgive the idiotic plot and
you'll have another good time with Riggs and Murtaugh.
