Lethal Weapon 4 (1998) Full Movie Reaction, Breakdown, Commentary & Spoiler Review! — with hosts John Humphrey & Aaron Alexander diving into the explosive fourth and final chapter of the iconic buddy-cop franchise that ups the stakes with international crime, brutal martial arts, and one last ride for Riggs and Murtaugh. Directed by Richard Donner (Superman, The Goonies), Lethal Weapon 4 reunites Mel Gibson (Mad Max, Braveheart) as the unhinged but lethal Martin Riggs and Danny Glover (Predator 2, The Color Purple) as the perpetually exhausted Roger Murtaugh, now grappling with retirement, fatherhood, and the realization that the world refuses to slow down with him. When a case involving human trafficking and Triad smuggling escalates, the duo finds themselves up against a far more disciplined and dangerous enemy than ever before. John & Aaron break down the film’s standout moments: the jaw-dropping opening shootout, the introduction of Jet Li (Hero, Romeo Must Die) as the terrifying villain Wah Sing Ku, whose lightning-fast hand-to-hand combat redefines the franchise’s action, the escalating Triad conspiracy, and the emotional throughline of family that anchors the chaos. They also highlight the expanded roles of Rene Russo as Lorna Cole, Joe Pesci as the endlessly unlucky Leo Getz, and Chris Rock as Detective Lee Butters, whose comedic energy injects fresh chaos into the team.
