Sep 21, 2016 | Full Review… Neal Justin Minneapolis Star Tribune Top Critic Crawford and Wayans prove to be a pretty good fit, as actors if not always as partners. Sep 21, 2016 | Rating: B- | Full Review… Ed Bark Uncle Barky Top Critic Too many new shows this season are based on old movies, but try not to hold that against Damon Wayans and Clayne Crawford, whose odd-couple pairing as TV's answer to Danny Glover and Mel Gibson actually works. Sep 20, 2016 | Full Review… Ellen Gray Philadelphia Inquirer Top Critic High body count. High cute quotient. Extreme yawn value. Sep 20, 2016 | Rating: C- | Full Review… Verne Gay Newsday Top Critic 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… Natalia Marcos El Pais (Spain) 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… Jade Budowski Decider This is pretty good TV that isn't trying to be great or, even worse, trying to be gritty. Aug 11, 2017 | Full Review… Rob Harvilla The Ringer I don't generally make a final decision on a show until I've watched a whole season, but just five episodes in to Lethal Weapon, I can without a doubt say it's the best guilty-pleasure show of 2016. May 3, 2017 | Full Review… Chelsea Hassler Vogue Ridiculous, yes, but it's a show that is honest about itself, with a surprisingly endearing performance from Crawford. Jan 25, 2019 | Rating: C+ | Full Review… Hank Stuever Washington Post Top Critic 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.
