Bad Boys II Trailers

Detectives Marcus Burnett and Mike Lowrey of the Miami Narcotics Task Force are tasked with stopping the flow of the drug ecstasy into Miami. They track the drugs to the whacked-out Cuban drug lord Johnny Tapia, who is also involved in a bloody war with Russian and Haitian mobsters. If that isn't bad enough, there's tension between the two detectives when Marcus discovers that playboy Mike is secretly romancing Marcus’ sister, Syd.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Bad Boys 2 is the followup to the hit Michael Bay film Bad Boys released in 1995. Released eight years later after the original, Bad Boys 2 returns both leads Will Smith and Martin Lawrence as this film sees more fresh, louder, longer and offers several more explosions, car cases, and over the top violence.The plot has been done before many times but the style of the film is quite entertainment in watching at certain points. The acting from both leads feels more authentic and less annoying this time around compared to the sequel. The same back and forth is continued but the dialogue does feel more refreshing. Overall, critics have panned this film as it seems many of them took the film too serious. In comparison to the audiences ratings, Bad Boys 2 appears to have delivered in what was intended. Recommend the film in trying not to take it overly serious and enjoy the action.

This is the sort of movie which would divide opinion, some would hate it because they'd think it would be too excessive and a bit over the top in terms of violence, language and action. Other people would love it because they would see it as a thrill a minute, kick ass and cool experience. While I can understand why some would have a negative opinion of this movie, I happen to enjoy it. The dialogue at times was sharp witty and at times funny, and the tension as the story builds towards its explosive climax could be cut with a knife. A few faults would be the pacing was inconsistent, slow at times, then suddenly picks up, on occasion the dialogue was a bit cheesy and macho and some of the action was a tad unrealistic, but at the same time fun. The cast by and large were solid, and the chemistry between Will Smith and Martin Lawrence as partners who happen to be polar opposites when it comes to personality makes the movie work, and Joe Pantoliano as the beleaguered police captain gives a very good impression of someone at the end of his tether thanks to the antics of Mike and Marcus. Onto the villains, Jordi Molla turns in a frightening performance as Johnny Tapia, whose laid back demeanor hides a ruthless and merciless personality, likewise Peter Stormare as the Russian mobster whose muscled out by Tapia in the drug distribution business. The movie depicts a three way criminal drug and turf war between Cuban Russian and Jamaican gangsters on the streets of Miami with the police caught in the crossfire, and shows how ruthless the bad guys can be when it comes to dealing with those who would get in their way, and how explosive the results can be. One of those movies which I like but I can understand why others may not.

Suitable for kids maybe, otherwise to many stupid trash scenes that should be funny, but in reality so stupid that is embarrassing to watch. Police driving Ferrari, on empty roads in city, haha, good joke. Don't know hoe can you watch this film without thinking how stupid it is.

This is my all time favorite excellent sequel buddy cop gunplay action flick I love it to death. It is Michael Bay's underrated excellent sequel! This is a prototypical "good" action movie -- intense, perfectly executed, it is original action, shown to the tune of a unforgettable following story from the first movie with a gunplay's fanatic dreams. The score to this movie I would give (for you) for Bad-Boys II a 6.6. To action junkies, this movie is an easy 9, because the only thing that really matters is that the action is superb and the other elements, if not stellar, don't detract enough from the action to really make a difference.Splitting the difference, I am giving an 8/10 -- a good score.Bad Boys II (2003) is Michael Bay second installment in the Bad Boys franchise that first movie from the 90's become a classic buddy cop action flick. I went to see this movie in the movie theater in 2003 when it come out. I loved the first movie so much, that I hoped so much that there would be a sequel to this awesome movie flick and 8 years later my hopes were answered. I got this movie on Blu-ray and re watching this movie again I still absolutely love it, since the first time I watched it in the movie theater. There is action violence, some drug content, and some tiny bit of sexuality but still this movie got 8 awards and was the best action movie in 2003. This is one of Michael Bay's best action films. So in conclusion if anybody like teenagers, or adults want to see this movie then I think this a great movie for them if their interested in action movie. Plot: Narcotics cops Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) head up a task force investigating the flow of ecstasy into Miami. Their search leads to a dangerous kingpin Johnny Tapia (Jordi Mollà), whose plan to control the city's drug traffic has touched off an underground war. Meanwhile, things get sexy between Mike and Syd (Gabrielle Union), Marcus's sister.Michael Bay returns as director and the film finds Miami detectives Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) battling Haitian and Cuban drug runners. The film's cast includes Joe Pantoliano and Gabrielle Union. It may have taken 8 years to reunite the Bad Boys, but it was well worth it as Martin Lawrence and Will Smith go balls to the walls in this roller coaster ride of a sequel. Director Michael Bay leaves nothing unearthed as the bullets fly and bodies fall. The chase sequence on the Miami bridge is worth the price of admission alone.Gabrielle Union as Special DEA Agent Sydney "Syd" Burnett, did a wonderful, brilliant and outstanding job portraying Marcus sister. I am happy that we see Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) in relationship with Syd and that we meet Marcus (Martin Lawrence) sister for the first time. She was never mentioned before in the first movie and we never know about his family. Mike Lorey was an only child and his parents were rich. Watch out for the scene where Marcus accidentally drinks two pills of ecstasy and get's high in Captain Howard (Joe Pantoliano)'s house and does a funny scenes, it is hilarious. The sequel is one of the most technically perfect action movies of all time. The set-pieces are jaw dropping and the freeway chase is one of greatest car chases in cinema history. Real stunts, real explosions and arguably the most over the top casual brutality in a mainstream action movie. Bodies flying out of trucks, then being decapitated, it's all right here.There are the wildest car chase scenes put all over the film, there isn't only one scene there are more car scenes. There are cars crashes, explosions and destroyed motor vehicles, you see them a lot in a perfect stunt vehicle. There is a rescue mission when Marcus's sister (Gabrielle Union) is kidnapped Mike (Will Smith) and Marcus (Martin Lawrence), along with their voluntary S.W.A.T. team and Syd's DEA co-workers, prepare a military assault to rescue Syd from Tapia's home.There are a lot of handguns and automatic weapons used in this movie and they are used well, we see a lot of shootouts, watch out for slo- motion on the end of scene where Syd throws Lowrey's other Glock 17, yet Burnett appears with a Glock, he makes a flip from the mine filed, the mine is a decoy and shoots Tapia right in the head between the eyes, the ending is very climatic action perfectly executed on a mine field. The problem: movie is way too long but the action is so spectacular and pace so relentless that you'll be caught up until the end credits. The movie is about 30 minutes too long, clocking in at a whopping 2 and a half hours which is definitely overkill. You'll never be bored though as it rockets along at a great pace. I love Bad Boys I and II to death! Technically speaking, the movie is not perfect. I would give it a 9. As it stands, I give it: 8/10.Bad Boys II is a 2003 American buddy cop action comedy film directed by Michael Bay, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, and starring Martin Lawrence and Will Smith. A sequel to the 1995 film Bad Boys and the second installment in the Bad Boys series.8/10 Score: B Studio: Columbia Pictures Starring: Martin Lawrence, Will Smith, Jordi Mollà, Gabrielle Union, Peter Stormare, Theresa Randle, Joe Pantoliano, Otto Sanchez, Jon Seda Director: Michael Bay Producer: Jerry Bruckheimer Screenplay: Ron Shelton, Jerry Stahl Story by Ron Shelton, Cormac Wibberley, Marianne Wibberley Rated: R Running Time: 2 Hr. 27 Mins.
