7/10
Sequel Is Just As Good.
5 September 2013
Mel Gibson & Danny Glover return in this equally fun, action packed film as they are assigned to protect a government witness(Joe Pesci) whose life is in danger from South African gangsters who want to preserve Apartheid, something which both Riggs and (especially) Murtaugh oppose. The case becomes more complicated when the gangsters go after Murtaugh in his home, then Riggs discovers that these crooks have a far more personal connection to his life than he had realized.

Film starts off with a bang, and seldom goes wrong; one of the few sequels to measure up the original, with interesting story turns and character development, and a refreshing use of continuity.

A winner.
