Watching it tonight with my dad. We watched 1-2 earlier this year and 3 this past weekend.

As great as Bad Boys 4 has performed at the box office with Smith and Lawrence ($166 million in 26 days, over $1 million every day), this has to go down as one of the stupidest decisions of the decade to not put Eddie back i the theaters. The nostalgic crowd alone would have been all over this film, and with BB4 the only adult humor movie out right now, this thing could have made $200m easy and cruised in the top 5 of the box until Deadpool 3 came out.

Just catastrophicaly stupid

Unless it is a sucky money grab.

Netflix had around 269.6 million paid subscribers worldwide as of the first quarter of 2024. If they get 3.3 million new subscribers (a paltry 1.2% increase) because of this movie and those subscribers stick for an average of 3 months, they'll make that $200 million. I agree it seems like they should have gone to the big screen, but this looks like easy money.

I guess I should let down by Eddie then, who became a mega star because of the movie theater and had a chance to help get it back on its feet.

Yeah, I guess the world is changing. I love movies, and I enjoy your takes on the classics. But I don't go to near as many as I used to, and there aren't nearly as many that appeal to me. It's a two or three times a year event now for me, when it used to be two or three a month. But time is shorter and more valuable these days, and the previews and ads are 3 time longer than in 1988. I'll be able to see the same movie on my big screen tv within 45 - 60 days, and I can watch at my convenience. There's a big difference between a 50 foot screen and a 5 foot screen, but that's the trade-off.

Anyways, I digress. How's the wife and kids?

It was great!

I can't be the only one who thought the actress playing Eddie's daughter was so bad. Sounded like she was just reading off the script. It was so glaring that it made the movie terrible.

She was fine. It's an action comedy. Being able to read lines is secondary.

I actually liked the actress.

---

I thought the movie was "ok", mostly brought down by her - I just didn't think she did a good job. Would have been ok for a smaller part but not for as much screen time as she had.

I thought it was pretty good and a nice throwback to 80s action comedy movies. It was about on par with Beverly Hills Cop 2, definitely better than the crappy part 3 but not something I'll likely ever watch again.

She was filler for this movie. Didnt even notice.

I thought it was interesting that Bogomil's daughter is named Jan and Foley's daughter is named Jane. Was that some sort of call back or did an earlier draft of the AF script include Jan that was later changed to Jane during rewrites.

I liked it, it definitely had the BHC vibe/feel.

Fun movie. Worth the watch.

Bacon plays a solid bad guy.

Great they still had all the main guys. Even Surge.

Watched it last night and had a great time. I expected it to be terrible, so I was very happy.

I was also surprised at Taggart still working in the movie, thinking his character has to be 90. But then realized he is just 76 in real life.

In my mind, I always had him pegged as the old guy in the originals. Dude was only 36 in the first. They had him retired by 46 in the 3rd movie

---

Taggart was only 36 in the first one?

---

I wouldn't have thought so either, but wiki tells me it's true.

I thought it was hilarious. Loved the nostalgia too.

And Eddie Murphy looks great for 63.

The word I use to describe this movie is "fun". It felt like I was at or watching a great 80s party with a bunch of 80s legends, and I was literally having fun. The action/comedy and story were almost secondary.

---

The action had me laughing it was so ridiculous but fun.

When he was smashing all the police cars with the snow plow I couldn't stop laughing.

I liked it. Good movie to veg thru.

Haven't seen it yet, but I keep seeing these types of tweets on my timeline.

🚨Beverly Hills Cop 4 is the worst fuckin movie I’ve ever watched! @SteveKim323 can concur!

It's no Academy Award nominee but posts like that are ridiculous. There no way they haven't seen a worse movie this month.

---

It may be the first movie they've ever seen in their life.

Something to think about.
