This sequel ups the ante immediately: Riggs and Murtaugh join witness protection duty for the loud, fast-talking Leo Getz — played hysterically by Joe Pesci (Goodfellas, Home Alone), whose “Okay, okay, okay!” becomes an instant franchise staple; The boys survive house explosions, highway chases, and diplomatic shootouts with Riggs’s signature reckless brilliance and Murtaugh’s constant exasperation; The emotional core deepens as Riggs learns chilling new truths about his wife’s death — revealing that this case is more personal than he ever imagined. The film blends laugh-out-loud comedy, lethal stunts, and real emotional weight — especially as Riggs seeks justice against the corrupt officials who believe they’re untouchable behind diplomatic immunity. John & Aaron break down all the standout sequences: the armored car chase, the toilet-bomb scene (Murtaugh’s worst morning ever), Leo’s hilarious introduction, Riggs’ underwater escape, the devastating loss that fuels Riggs’s rage, and the unforgettable finale where justice hits harder than any bullet. They explore how the film sharpens the duo’s chemistry, expands the Lethal Weapon universe, and cements Riggs & Murtaugh as one of the greatest action pairs in movie history. #LethalWeapon2 #LethalWeapon #LethalWeapon1989 #ActionComedy #BuddyCopMovie #MelGibson #DannyGlover #80sAction #ClassicAction #SequelMovie #CopMovie #RichardDonner #MovieReaction #MovieReview #Classic #ClassicMovies #ClassicCinema #React #ReactTo #Reaction Avengers: Doomsday Trailer Reaction: https://youtu.be/Kjoco3f17UM The Odyssey Trailer Reaction: https://youtu.be/II1fZrlbrL8 Sherlock Holmes (2009) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/1GNEIJVO32s Rush Hour (1998) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/xHDfg1dY9hA The Other Guys (2010) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/GRRy9-LQRzc 0:00 Checking In! 0:45 Lethal Weapon 2 Reaction 31:26 PRIZE PICKS 32:38 Lethal Weapon 2 Movie Reaction 1:14:29 Lethal Weapon 2 Review Follow Aaron on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therealaaronalexander/?hl=en Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Head Editor: https://www.instagram.com/praperhq/?hl=en Supervising Producer: https://twitter.com/nerdchronic?lang=en Co-Editor: Greg Alba Co-Editor: John Humphrey Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG Ask Us A QUESTION On CAMEO: https://www.cameo.com/thereelrejects Follow GREG On INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/thegregalba/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thegregalba PLAYLISTS: Trailer Reactions & Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw9ZsLdoAQFpx38s2hhyFgDe Movie Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8 Sketches & Short Films: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_zWuTRfBOUP3aYyIYRzc2y

"diplomatic immunity!" "Its just been revoked" is a top tier 80s action movie line

Now with Leo joining, it "getz" even wilder. That's the beauty of this franchise. With every entry new members join the Riggs-Murtaugh family. And we, the audience, grow closer and closer to them.

Favorite line: Accountant - "But, you're bleck." Leo (Looks at Murtaugh shaking head) - "You are."

1994 Maverick with Mel Gibson and Jodie Foster..is a must see just for the easter egg alone that's in it. This is also Richard Donner and is a very fun movie that still works today.

None of the "ok k k k k" were in the script. Joe Peshi improvised them because that is how he saw the character would be like. Brilliant actor.

“It’s just been revoked” is in the pantheon of 1 liners.
