In Richard Donner's sequel to LETHAL WEAPON, Murtaugh (Danny Glover) is still the family man. Riggs (Mel Gibson) is still the daredevil, but now he counts the odds before bucking them.

He leads them to a murderous syndicate with ties to a foreign power. Along the way, there's a six-story plummet from a window, a booby-trapped toilet, an underwater escape, and much more.

    directors cut -cut

    it maybe the directors cut but it still contains an edit. After Mel dislocates his shoulder he gets out of the water and kicks the blokes arse but in this reg2 uk release we still dont get to see it. Apart from that its top notch
