Second one has its moments, but yeah, overall, it's way too bloated. That said, two of my best friends in the industry met on that movie, which ultimately led to basically every opportunity I've ever had in Hollywood. I've also heard every story there is to hear from the behind the scenes of the production. So for those two reasons alone, the movie holds a weirdly special place for me.
Not going to lie, Bad Boys II is my ultimate guilty-pleasure-favorite-movie. It may not be a "good" movie per se, but I think it's fun and so damn quotable. I'm regularly quoting it in my head to keep from saying it out loud and getting awkward looks
Bad Boys II I one of the most misanthropic, violent, self-indulgent, borderline sociopathic summer blockbusters I've ever witnessed, and I love every trashy moment of it. It's Michael Bay's Id on screen; unfiltered or compromised. I don't know what it says about me as a person that I kind of love this movie, but I do. There's no regard for human life in that movie. Period. Something that uncompromising and pure in intent just isn't made by major studios any more.

Unconfirmed and not officially announced by the studio. Besides, based on the backlash alone, there's no way they keep that as the actual title, if it ever even was considered.

C'mon, man! You can't just throw that out there and leave it.

Ha, I seriously can't repeat the vast majority of it on a public forum.

Sounds like an opportunity for a private forum that is invite only?

A respectable 77% on RT. I was worried it was gonna be awful.

Excited to watch this.

Seeing it tomorrow. These movies have been a fav with my group of friends going back to high school. Can't wait.

Pretty dumb, but pretty fun.

I wish it didn't look so digital at times, but the two directors do a great job of channeling old school Michael Bay. The action's not quite up to Bay standards, but in return, we don't have suffer through Bay's twisted and tasteless humor. Overall, it's definitely a worthy follow up (though, again, there are a few of minor, but head-scratching choices).

Also, based on the trailer, I thought this would be the last one for sure, but they straight up set the stage for more. It almost feels like this could be another Fast & Furious-type franchise going forward, as it trends a bit more in that direction than the past two.

Btw, Will Smith's new love interest/fellow cop is basically a Latino Trinity. She's pretty hot, seemingly came out of no where, and has a fairly big role. But she hasn't been featured in the marketing at all and I can't even find a single still of her from the movie online. It's so weird. This is her on the far right, though, from a promotional image...



If the movie performs at the box office like Sony hopes it does, going forward, it really does feel like she'll be the Letty to Will Smith's Toretto; kind of like the mom and pop of this new "family"/generation of cops, with Martin Lawrence in the lovable uncle/Ludacris role. There's a "new franchise" feel to this movie that, if you would have told me about beforehand, I would have rolled my eyes, but it actually kind of works. Granted, it does feel a little too meta at times - it's almost as if the characters of Mike and Marcus *know* they're in a third Bad Boys movie - but it never jumps the shark, never feels forced, and is mostly a joy to watch.

Really enjoyed it. Just as many, if not more, LOL moments. Like mentioned, maybe just a little light on the action.

Awesome to see Reggie make an appearance.

Loved it. A ton of fun. Audience was having a ball in the theater.

Also, so glad they brought back the original theme from the first movie. So dope.

This was exactly what I wanted it to be. Big, kinda dumb, and fun. Doesn't quite have the edge to the action sequences of the Bay films but still satisfying for a great popcorn movie, and they've still got great chemistry.

No better or worse than previous ones. Still pretty funny.

Saw it last night. Exactly what you'd expect. Not going to win any awards, but still really funny and entertaining.
