Directed by: Richard Donner
Starring: Mel Gibson, Danny Glover, Chris Rock, Jet Li, Rene Russo, Joe Pesci, Kim Chan, Steve Kahan
Trivia: As Mel Gibson, Danny Glover and Chris Rock leave the Chinese restaurant (down the stairs), you can see the umbrella handed to Chris Rock hit him in the face.
Trivia: Jackie Chan was originally offered the role of Wah Sing Su, but turned it down because he chooses never to play a villain in a movie.
Continuity mistake: During the car chase involving the car driven by the Chinese guy, Murtaugh, and the mobile home, the two cars slide against each other and the right wing mirror on Murtaugh's car is completely wrecked. Once the two cars are separated the wing mirror has miraculously repaired itself. The left wing mirror also does a disappearing / reappearing trick.
Lee Butters: You have the right to remain silent. So shut the fuck up. You have the right to an attorney. If you can't afford an attorney, we will provide you with the dumbest fucking lawyer on Earth. If you hire Johnny Cochrane, I'll kill you!
Question: I wonder, what was the point of having a gunfight with the armored man at the beginning of the film?

Answer: It was put in the film to introduce the concept of Rianne and Lorna being pregnant and to bring in the joke about the news article about Roger, not to mention giving the film an action-heavy opening.
