KnockBack, Episode 241 | Lethal Weapon 2
Added 2022-09-20 16:00:09 +0000 UTC1989's Lethal Weapon 2 is one of the most beloved buddy-cop (and action) movies of all-time, and for good reason. A trio of excellent performances from the likes of Mel Gibson, Danny Glover, and Joe Pesci set the stage for two hours well-spent, another ride through 1980s Los Angeles full of crime, violence, and of course a never-ending stream of jokes. From straightjackets to nailguns, from tow truck chase scenes and Apartheid-era racists, Lethal Weapon 2 is a wild ride, and we're excited to talk about it in detail.

2022-09-21 18:28:07 +0000 UTCThis was the best movie you guys have introduced me to so far. I’d call it a comedic masterpiece. ❤️

2022-09-21 14:09:21 +0000 UTCSo we’re supposed to be here to hear about lethal weapon 2 and almost an hour of this episode isn’t anything about the movie. Kindle a disappointing episode.

2022-09-20 18:44:27 +0000 UTCWhat is striking about this film is that it is almost never mentioned in discussion about political or politicization of films, yet a key narrative element is Apartheid. Anyway looking forward to this discussion, see you in 90 minutes.
