LETHAL WEAPON
Following the death of his wife, Los Angeles police detective Martin Riggs becomes reckless and suicidal. When he is reassigned and partnered with Roger Murtaugh, Riggs immediately clashes with the older officer. Together they uncover a massive drug-trafficking ring and as they encounter increasingly dangerous situations, Riggs and Murtaugh begin to form a bond. Riggs’ volatile behavior might just help them apprehend the criminals — if it doesn’t kill them both first.
Craig is joined by Co-host Elisabeth Rappe (@elisabethrappe on twitter) and guest Rob Ervin (@YesThatRobErvin)as they discuss buddy films, police cops, Elisabeth’s obsession with Mel Gibson and the movie “Lethal Weapon” on this week’s Matinee Heroes!
