I'd completely forgotten about "Bad Boys for Life" (2020) but luckily there are were few flashbacks to remind me that "Mike" (Will Smith) had been the target of a son he didn't know about - "Armando" (Jacob Scipio) - and that both he and partner "Marcus" (Martin Lawrence) risked life and limb to get him behind bars. Well now, a few years ...

For a fourth outing, <em>'Bad Boys: Ride or Die'</em> still finds a way to produce the goods. I enjoyed what I watched. The previous installment remains the clear standout of the series comparatively speaking, though I was pleased to see this one still deliver the nessacary entertainment; it's perhaps my second favourite from the franc...

I didn’t know what to expect going into the fourth installment of one of my favorite buddy cop franchises. Having seen the first movie in theaters at age 13, I grew up with this series and had my doubts about its ability to evolve. Fortunately, I was pleasantly surprised. This film was a joy to watch, even though it was missing Theresa...

We liked Bad Boys because it was Lethal Weapon in Miami, and we like Lethal Weapon because it was just like the other 356 buddy cop movies we saw before it. It's a timeless LCD flick that you're going to go and see because you know it delivers.... ... the thing is, it didn't. This one took itself a bit too seriously. It had to, the ...

Not awful but hardly remarkable either, Bad Boys, Ride or Die is a passable shake and bake, crime action flick. The downsides, in short order, include a rapper gangsta vibe, that's overcooked to the point of cultural cremation. Its no helped by humour, that's, for most of this film, rarely even remotely funny. The upside is what y...

I had an absolute blast watching “Bad Boys: Ride or Die,” the fourth installment in the popular buddy comedy / action franchise that started off with a bang way back in 1995. Co-directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, back at the helm after 2020’s “Bad Boys for Life,” pay homage to the “Bad Boys” legacy while injecting new life into it....

Good job, Bad Boys. You're gonna make a satisfying film when I come for you. I kind of ignored the first hour and a half but definitely the first hour. It might be for the best but Lawrence is good. Will is good. But they're also bad. I like the spiritual overtones and comedy. Satisfying buddy comedy. The drones are sweet. I liked ...

I will not deny that I found this movie somewhat entertaining. Maybe even fairly entertaining. This mostly comes from the action and a few entertaining humorous scenes splattered across the movie. However, it could have been so much better if the script had not been written by the usual bunch of low IQ Hollywood hacks. Most of th...
