Superior Sequels: Lethal Weapon vs Lethal Weapon 2

This week on Superior Sequels I’ve taken it upon myself to eliminate two films from a franchise and narrow the debate down to just the first two...

Lethal Weapon (1987) vs Lethal Weapon 2 (1989).

I know there are four films in the series with a possible fifth on the way, but I think it’s fair to say that this argument comes down to just the first two movies.

All four are great in their own way but the first two outings of buddy cops Riggs and Murtaugh are undoubtedly the best.

Both movies are brilliant and a sad reminder of what films used to be like before Hollywood ran out of ideas and started remaking EVERY FILM EVER MADE, but which is the better movie?

Have your say in the comments.
