This is just about as phony and cliché as an action flick can get. It is so phony it almost looks like a spoof because every element a spoof would laugh at is in Lethal. You have everything--an evil psychotic Russian mobster, an ass-kicking bimbo, professional terrorist mercenaries who can never hit a target 20 yards away in the open and never shoot together (they pop up one after another just to miss their target and be killed by the bimbo waving a machine gun at them). The bimbo can walk, look straight ahead and still see a guy aiming at her from behind. And of course, they all love holding a gun to your head and telling you all about their emotional problems leading to them becoming terrorists, giving you plenty of chance to escape. Watching this movie, you almost scream "will you shoot her already!" To add insult to injury, a building where they develop space-age military technology must be guarded by a horny useless nerd. You can get in with someone's ID and of course the entire office floor is conveniently empty in the middle of the day, no computer is locked, no files are encrypted. But I'm sure if they were, any bimbo could quickly "break" the encryption or guess the password. And you guessed right, dear readers, you hear a police siren literally a second after the last shot is fired.

I saw this film yesterday.. I must admit, it's one of the most crappiest action movies I've ever seen. OK, you got this blonde babe going around in some black tank top. There's nothing really sexy about it. Just some woman carrying a gun shooting down the bad guys..Lorenzo Lamas plays the bad guy in this flick. He's trying hard to put on this Russian accent. It was so bad. The fight scenes were OK in some parts, but the shootout scenes were awful. I could've swore that this dark-haired guy shot this black uniformed terrorist off the roof.After watching this film, I felt as if the filmmakers really wasted their talent on making this pile of sh*te! I got nothing against Lorenzo Lamas and Frank Zagarino. Yes! They maybe good actors, but how comes they got sucked into this rubbish?Well, at the end of the day.. This is one film that shouldn't be made. Bad script. Bad directing. All pappy show! A totally awful 0 out of 10!

As an action film, "Lethal" is a joke: amateurish and underbudgeted (they didn't even hire extras for the scenes set on the streets or in office buildings!), with very bad fight choreography, editing and camera placement (which even manages to miss a few hits in the fight scenes). But, let's be honest here: the only possible reason you could have for renting this film (unless you're a Lorenzo Lamas fan!) is that the video cover features a good-looking woman in a black tank top holding a gun. And the film actually does feature a good-looking woman in a black tank top holding (and shooting) a gun (and occasionally two guns). Her "serious" acting is painful, but her tough-chick act is engaging, and she has really great abs. As for her co-stars, Frank Zagarino almost manages to come out of this looking decent, and Lorenzo Lamas, playing the bad guy, tries for a Russian accent, which at least shows that he doesn't take himself all that seriously.

Unless you are a bad action movie craved masochist, do not watch this movie. The acting is horrible, the storyline is weak, a very low budget film. The star can kill 20 of the enemy's goons in one minute (the bad guys are the same guys used over and over again, there might only be 3 or 4 actors and they wear full body black outfits that make them indistinguishable from one amother)Do not spend any money on this movie - if you want to waste some money, send it to me instead.
