Plot

Veteran buttoned-down LAPD detective Roger Murtaugh is partnered with unhinged cop Martin Riggs, who -- distraught after his wife's death -- has a death wish and takes unnecessary risks with criminals at every turn. The odd couple embark on their first homicide investigation as partners, involving a young woman known to Murtaugh with ties to a drug and prostitution ring.

Quick Review

There was always something special about Murtaugh and Riggs' interaction in this series. In this first movie the element of danger and unpredicability hangs over Riggs throughout the movie and keep the intensity high. A great action movie
