Considered one of the films by Michael Bay
with a more coherent plot and better pacing.
Bad Boys’ story is about two cops going on to bust the guys who stole a
lot of heroin from the police department.
The interaction of the two characters played by Will Smith and Martin
Lawrence is easily the best aspect of the film.
They were funny and played off against each other well; it is easily
believable that they are longtime friends and excellent partners. The plot is your standard run of the mill
type affair, nothing about it is extraordinary, even the action and gun fights
seem tame. It’s a realistic and
believable story. It does feel a little
bit too long by the time an hour has gone and you want things to speed up. Bad Boys is an average film with some decent
set pieces.
