Lethal Weapon is getting rebooted now that the whole cast has grown “too old for this s***.” That news came as we were checking out Red Hill from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, and we got to speculating about how different this movie would play as a buddy cop film with Lethal Weapon‘s Riggs and Murtaugh, Starsky and Hutch, Dirty Harry and his doomed-partner-of-the-day, and others.
SYNOPSIS:
Constable Shane Cooper (Ryan Kwanten, TV’s “True Blood”) arrives in the small town of Red Hill in search of a quieter life. But on Cooper’s first day with the Red Hill Police Department, a convicted murderer escapes from prison and heads straight for Red Hill to kill the men who put him there. One by one, the townsmen fall until Cooper discovers the shocking truth about the convict, and must challenge everything he believes in order to stop the massacre and bring justice to Red Hill.

I think I would want Kato from the Green Hornet on my side. He’s loyal, trustworthy and can kick some major ass
Hooch from Turner & Hooch ;P
Somebody played by Harrison Ford.
