Lethal Weapon (Full Frame)

VHS, R, 110 minutes, WARNER

With the addition of over seven minutes of previously unavailable scenes, the director's cut of "Lethal Weapon" is a long-overdue present for fans. Rigg's solitary homelife and the tragic loss that spurs him to a reckless disregard for his own safety now come into greater focus. We see that recklessness in action in new scenes that also underline the differences between the two cops. Murtaugh, just turned 50, needs to reassure himself about his skills at a firing range. Riggs, not caring if he sees another birthday, coolly walks into a sniper's field of fire and into position to take out the shooter. All the humor and adrenaline that made "Lethal Weapon" an entertainment milestone are here, too. No scenes have been removed. But new action and new insight have been included. Include yourself in the excitement.
