Lethal Weapon

(1987; screens Saturday at 3 p.m.)

Yet another movie about Two Men Who Must Overcome Their Differences To Defeat A Common Enemy. Mel Gibson (sporting tousled, shoulder-length locks) plays an on-the-edge LA cop; Danny Glover is his partner, a black family man suffering a midlife crisis. Richard Donner directs in his usual hamfisted style, delivering the shattered glass, squealing tires, gunfire, and explosions, but zip in the way of plot or character.
