      Critics Consensus

      Lethal Weapon's overly polished production values and tired narrative are somewhat overcome by solid chemistry between its two leads.

      Hank Stuever Washington Post Ridiculous, yes, but it's a show that is honest about itself, with a surprisingly endearing performance from Crawford. Rated: C+ Jan 25, 2019 Full Review Hugo Rifkind Times (UK) Really, it's less like the original Lethal Weapon than it is like that episode of The Simpsons where Homer bullies Gibson into making another one. Dec 29, 2017 Full Review Andrew Billen Times (UK) Riggs and Murtaugh, when not out slaughtering bad guys, complete each other. Lethal Weapon, despite its bountiful if bloodless violence, is curiously relaxing. Rated: 4/5 Dec 28, 2017 Full Review Natalia Marcos El Pais (Spain) Crazy action, critical moments, shots, explosions, gracietas, persecutions, liters of testosterone ... The series gives what is expected of it. [Full Review in Spanish] Jul 10, 2018 Full Review Jade Budowski Decider It's not that it isn't fun - it just isn't anything we haven't seen before, and television should be getting better, not lazier. Dec 20, 2017 Full Review Rob Harvilla The Ringer This is pretty good TV that isn't trying to be great or, even worse, trying to be gritty. Aug 11, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews
