Lethal Weapon 4 Reviews

An outstanding finale to the series, proving that some forms of overkill never get too old.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Sep 14, 2020

The weakest of the series...

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Feb 11, 2020

After four films and countless adventures, these characters have become a family, and they've become part of ours too.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 4, 2018

If not for Jet Li, Lethal Weapon 4 would actually be worse than Lethal Weapon 3.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 12, 2012

Lethal Weapon 4 throws in everything except the kitchen sink -- and that's only if you don't count the one that's destroyed along with the rest of the Murtaugh household.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 14, 2012

With 'Lethal Weapon 4' we find the silliest and most sentimental of the bunch.

| Original Score: 5/10 | May 24, 2012

| Original Score: C | Sep 7, 2011

Hong Kong action plus buddy cop formula.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 1, 2011

Cynical and contemptuous of its audience, this lazy sequel oozes an insufferable air of self-satisfaction.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 25, 2008

Mindless, sadistic violence juxtaposed with rote sentimentality: this is how Hollywood has finally solved the family-values conundrum, the question of how to entertain the blood- and sex-starved masses and be morally proactive at the same time.

| Aug 25, 2008

It matters little that the film is rife with non sequiturs, nonsense and nihilistic violence, because its heroes are so darn buoyant and charming.

You're best advised to put your head in the sand and avoid all three sequels.

| Aug 25, 2008

The very definition of a meaningless, mindless summer sequel.

| Original Score: D | Sep 24, 2007

The climactic streetfighting clash between Mel and coldly charismatic martial arts star Jet Li is a bone-crunching classic.

| Jun 24, 2006

I heard audience members yelling out, 'Rewind it -- I wanna see that again!'

| Original Score: 3/4 | May 26, 2006

A moderately entertaining entry in an overrated series that sorely lacks the hard-edged toughness director Walter Hill brought to his two superior 48 HRS films.

Full Review | Original Score: 6/10 | Mar 4, 2006

Offers absolutely nothing new.

| Original Score: C+ | Apr 9, 2005

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Apr 2, 2005

The surreal opening scene, featuring an armor-clad flamethrower-brandishing villain, is a clear indicator that few things in this film should be taken seriously.

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10 | Mar 10, 2004

a flaccid, unnecessary wrap-up to a once-glorious series ...

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jul 1, 2003
