Mel Gibson's Video Diary 2: Lethal Weapon 3

This little video feature was a neat sales stunt. It's a "video diary" by Gibson (actually some PR people) combining videotaped stunt footage with Gibson "fooling around" during the filming of the movie. More than anything, it emphasizes Gibson's ability to play a wiseguy - which he does better here than in the theatrical film he was making. Things like having a stunt double spliced in to do a "breakdancing" Danny Glover work - the endless attempts to make car crash stunts sound "funny" aren't. Let's be honest, it's a half-hour commercial for the movie.

This video diary is hilarious! Not only do you get the main actors giving you an in-site into what they were trying to achieve with the characters, but you also get a feel of their on-set experiences!. Of course Mel Gibson is the bomb! But you have to give out respect for Danny Glover, Joe Pesci and Rene Russo whos contribution makes the lethal weapon series probably the greatest cop films of all time!. Keep them coming Richard Donner!.
