Review: This sequal had more action and more laughs than the first. Once again Will Smith and Martin Lawrence put on a terrific performance! If you liked the first Bad Boys, definitely go check out Bad Boys II.

Summary: SHOW HIM YOU'RE BADGE?MAN HE'S GOT A GUN SHOOT HIM!!!!
Review: Agghhh!!!!i cannot wait for this film,the first bad boys was brilliant and now they've reunited the whole bunch of geniuses behind the first one.Will smith,who was oscar nominated for ALI is a great actor,there is never a bad film when he's around,michael bay and jerry bruckhiemer are the only hollywood director/producer combination that i care about making films such as the rock,pearl harbour as well as the first bad boys film and bruckhiemer producing one of my favourite tv shows CSI.The trailer looks awesome i must have watched it about 50 times already.I've been waiting for this since i saw the first one in 1995,i was 13 years old and loved it then then and i still love it now.Forget about T3 and the hulk and the other money spinning [stuff] coming out from hollywood this summer,this is the only film worth seeing,no CGI effects to spoil it just plain old gritty stunt work and fast paced action to make you wet you're pants.I'm gonna be first in line for this,as homer would say mmmmmm films *drools*

Summary: Looks Good
Review: Okay, I haven't seen this movie yet but I have seen the trailor to this movie and looks really good. Both Martin Lawrence and Will Smith have done tremendous jobs in past movies as both comedians and action stars. The first Bad Boys was totally awesome and this one looks to be just as good. Here is the plot...

Detectives Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) and Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) return, only this time they are investigating the booming ecstasy business in South Florida. Their investigation leads to an evil kingpin who has started a violent turf war in Miami. To make their problems worse, Mike begins to fall for Marcus' half sister,Syd (Gabrielle Union). It's a relationship that threatens Mike and Marcus' friendship and put Syd's life in danger.

Anyway, I cannot wait for this summer to see this movie. Smith latest film was MIB II which was just ok. Bad Boys II may be a good improvement on Smith's career and Lawrence doen's really need that much of an improvement because he recently starred in National Security which was totally awesome. I was so thrilled when I heard of Bad Boys II and I am definetly gonna see it when it is released.

Review: a very good action movie. a lot of great car chases and shootouts. also a funny movie. the exta features are not very good.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Long Film But Funny Nonetheless
Review: I actually liked this one better than the first! Could've done without all the language though. Even the Lethal Weapon films didn't have all that cursing but other than that.

Don't get me wrong, I ain't bashing that part of it. It has it place but a lot of times they were just cursing just to be doing it it seemed. Still a great film overall and a nice touch adding the incredible Gabrielle Union to the mix!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: mindless
Review: Modern movie action, not much of a story. All special effects and crazy car chases.

Summary: Bad II
Review:

It's hard to imagine that anyone out there could actually have been clamoring for a sequel to 1995's "Bad Boys." Yet, eight years later, along came "Bad Boys II" to remind us that even the least deserving film can get itself a follow-up, provided it has the right amount of high-powered corporate backing and big enough names in the cast to get the job done. As with most sequels, this one comes replete with a Roman numeral neatly tucked behind its title to give it that extra special touch of class. However, in this case, perhaps the II really stands for "twice as bad."

This new film, which is indeed even longer, dopier and duller than the original, once again stars Will Smith and Martin Lawrence as two Miami P.D. undercover cops who spend most of their time kvetching at one another in between car chases and shootouts (and often during as well). As this is a Michael Bay film, rest assured that the gun battles and vehicular mayhem have been designed on so grand and epic a scale that we wonder that the entire city of Miami along with a good part of Cuba haven't been reduced to rubble by the time Smith and Lawrence are done doing their thing.

The nominal plot involves the partners tracking down a Cuban drug kingpin (yawn) who is smuggling Xtasy to the states hidden inside gutted corpses. This allows for some truly vile humor at the expense of some innocent dead bodies ("Six Feet Under" this definitely is not). To complicate matters, Lawrence's beautiful kid sister is also working undercover for the NEA and the fretting Lawrence does everything he can to make her job all that much more difficult.

The screenplay by Ron Shelton and Jerry Stahl encompasses every cop buddy cliché known to mankind. First, we have the hyper distraught captain who somehow fails to see the genius behind the boys' unconventional crime fighting methods. Then, in place of characterization, the boys engage in a running repartee of stale jokes and tiresome put downs that continues on even though all around them bullets are flying and bodies are piling up. Finally, there is the threatened sundering of the team over petty differences and the equally inevitable patching up of differences at the end. And the humor is so lowbrow that the film lacks even the saving grace of laughter to make it all bearable. Basically, this sequel is just another opportunity for Bay to beat his audience over the head with frenetic editing and mind numbing action.

"Bad Boys II" might have been more aptly named if they had simply dropped the word "Boys" out of the title altogether. It would at least have given audiences a more truthful and accurate description of the contents.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Chitty, Chitty, Bang! Bang!
Review: Marcus(Lawrence) and Mike(Smith) are back with more bang than they left us with in the first of the two brilliant movies. They take on some psycho cubano druglords, dodge flying cars and kick some serious ass, with great comedy along the way. These two are a brilliant team and a winning combination. So for great laughs, great action and great entertainment this is a must see for everyone who enjoyed the first movie.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Ugh
Review: Usually sequels offer more of the same, but this mean spirited cop buddy movie gone wrong offers less of the same. Less originality, less humor, and less ability to capture the audience's interest with anything other than big explosions. The stars are generally morally indistinguishable from the villains, and their only difference lies in the amount of ass-kicking of which they're capable. The plot unravels further when they go overseas to a central American country to stage an assault on a drug kingpin's palatial home. In the home, the toddler child of the drug dealer is whisked away to safety by a henchman. Then the henchman is shot, leaving the girl all alone. We never see her again, in what was surely an oversight or a forced edit to reduce the overall, tortuous length of the film.
