Chicago Sun-Times -
In a movie with the energy of this one, we're exhilarated by the sheer freedom of movement; the violence becomes surrealistic and less important than the movie's underlying energy level.

Washington Post -
After watching Gibson and Glover grow accustomed to each other, develop trust and confidence in each other and charge bullheadedly into dangerous situations, you can't help but hope there's a "Lethal Weapon II." It would be one of the few times a sequel would make sense and dollars.

TV Guide Magazine -
Gibson is truly frightening as the cop about to go into orbit, and Glover is a standout as the down-to-earth lawman with very much to lose.

The New York Times -
The film is all fast action, noisy stunts and huge, often unflattering close-ups, but it packs an undeniable wallop.

Empire -
The pace never slows, the jokes never miss and the stunts never disappoint in this macho-dream of an actioner.
