Lethal Weapon (1987)

It's on my traditional Christmas watch-list. Every year. Good old favorite with memorable scenes and lines. Gotta love Gibson and Glover. In short? A brilliant action classic.

Lethal Weapon (1987)

Incredibly important action film with some truly iconic scenes and lines (along with a few cringe-worthy ones). Make sure this is on your alternative Christmas watch-list.
