The movie Bad Boys was released on April 7, 1995, and it was followed by three other movies. The most recent one is Bad Boys: Ride or Die, which was released on June 7th, 2024. Michael Bay directed the first and second Bad Boys movies, with the writers being George Gallo, Michael Barrie, and Jim Mullholland for the first Bad Boys film.
Bad Boys is a perfect mix of comedy and action. The comedy is hilarious, and the action is both thrilling and often amusing. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are both great actors, but they are somewhat better while they are acting together. The movie has something that can interest everyone.
The movie begins with the detectives Mike Lowrey (played by Smith) and Marcus Burnett (played by Lawrence), who are partners in the narcotics division. They are searching for the criminals who stole $100 million in heroin from a “secure” police vault. The director of Internal Affairs, Captain Allison Sinclair (played by Marg Helgenberger), is threatening to
shut down their whole division if they don’t find the heroin in 72 hours or less.
When I watched the first Bad Boys film, I thought it was one of the funniest movies I had ever seen, especially when Marcus makes a mistake. One of the most iconic lines from the Bad Boys franchise is “We ride together, we die together. Bad boys for life.” This is one of my favorite lines of the whole movie, as they say it after they kill the main antagonist, and it fits perfectly with the scene.
What I enjoyed most about the movie was how it was directed and how the whole story plays out. Even though it’s an action movie, it contains a lot of comedy. This makes it a better movie, since it has something for everyone, especially if they like action and comedy.
The relationship between Marcus and Mike is terrific, and they are both the opposite of each other. Marcus is very clumsy and Mike is very serious and is trying to do his job, which makes their interactions more fun to watch.
One of the best fighting scenes in the movie is when Marcus goes to pick up Julie (Téa Leoni) from her apartment, but enemy enforcers unexpectedly arrive, causing a gun battle. The reason why this fight scene is so great is mainly because of the action in it. It is perfect and matches the vibe of the scene, even though there isn’t much comedy found at this moment.
The best things about this movie are the fight scenes and the comedy. And if you enjoy Bad Boys, I suggest that you go and watch Bad Boys ll and Rush Hour, as they are both buddy movies with lots of action and comedy.
