increase cost of outstripped the cost of living inereaw and put the town libraries even further behind 1 Board Chairman 11iegctt said Ilalton Hills belongs to isn without town chief liLrann the towns

collection is the among similarly lh lowest I AT nun 3X AT THE MOVIES milium Lethal Weapon ByDIAHANNNAOMU Herald Special I should begin by saying that if Lethal Weapon had been made with a different cast I would not have bothered to see it As It was I could not resist the temptation of watching Mel Gibson even in a Clint Eastwood style movie Lethal Weapon features Gibson as Martin a suicidal cop a policeman on the edge as we are told repeatedly who is teamed up with Roger a quiet family man who has just turned 50 The two are assigned to Investigate the death of a young woman that begins as an apparent suicide and unfolds Into a major drug running operation Like most of the cop and television shows of late there are memories for most of the characters 1 suppose these references are meant to impart social significance to even the most shallow and violent of this crop of films and tv shows The movie opens with a pretty semi naked blonde snorting co caine and jumping off high storey balcony to the tunc of Jingle Bell Rock Welcome to the holiday season in LA This scene pretty well sets the tone for the film There ia a lot of death in the movie although it is the sort of silly cops and robbers stuff that becomes meaningless after a short time Martin Biggs trained as on In Vietnam and conse quently shoots to kill learns this to his dismay shortly after their meeting Did you ever meet anyone you didn Kill taugh tries to shoot to injure rather than kill a that Is discredited several times through the movie What a nice message is understandably upset to have assigned as his part he won t let drive the car for fear that he will kill them both Although It is hard to imagine any humor In this plot there are some funny scenes Mail of it is black comedy but amusing nonetheless I particularly liked attempt to talk down a suicide No subtle psychology for warn I 1 1 1 J This movie is difficult to pin down The cast makes It more than a shootcm up film yet that is what the script Is really about 1 think the movie and the message arc the ultimate product of Reagan good guys versus bad guys murder is justifiable and easy guns are our friends and it pay to be a bleeding heart liberal It is nicely packaged and the humor makes the pill easier to swallow It is also another homage to machismo and male bondage the wife and family definitely lake aback scat to the partnership Danny Glover is good as taugh Gibson Is gorgeous and con enough as the suicidal manic and Gary is totally wasted as a hit man The movie is slick but violent and preposterous at times It is not for family viewing and you should other like Mel Gibson a lot or be a fan these types of violent cop a network if which their materials With the sent collection wc vt become parasitical Mr II said
