Lethal Weapon 2

Trivia: The first time we see Riggs in his trailer, there's an advert for some new aftershave called "Hero" on the TV. During the attack on his trailer later, there's a close-up shot of a bottle of aftershave being destroyed - freeze-frame it and you'll see the brand: "Hero" again.

Trivia: When Leo is cleaning Riggs' house, you can hear the song "I'm Not Scared" by the group Eighth Wonder. Patsy Kensit, who portrays Rika Van Den Haas in the movie, was the lead singer of the group.

Trivia: Right before Rianne's commercial begins, a Tales from the Crypt episode is on the TV. This is the second episode of the first season, titled And All Through the House about a woman who kills her husband and is terrorized by an escaped mental patient dressed up as Santa. The murderous woman is played by Mary Ellen Trainor, who plays the psychiatrist Stephanie Woods in the Lethal Weapon movies.

Continuity mistake: At the end of the movie, when Riggs is in the cargo area, a gunman shoots at him, he rolls and starts emptying the clip into him - you see the bullet holes in the gunman. But as Riggs is face to face with the gunman, the holes disappear.
