Slick to a fault, this glossy action flick takes place in sunny Florida, where Martin Lawrence and Will Smith play two cops--one married with kids, the other a swinging bachelor. The two are forced to trade places to foil criminal mastermind Fouchet (Tcheky Karyo) who has stolen $100 million worth of heroin from a police lockup. Violent, illogical, and filled with wall-to-wall profanity, Bad Boys was the last film produced by the hit-making team of Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer before Simpson's untimely death, and marked the directorial debut of Michael Bay who followed up with The Rock. Bad Boys will be of interest to action buffs and fans of Tea Leoni, who makes one of her early screen appearances in the central supporting role. --Jeff Shannon

An impossible heist of millions of dollars of heroin, stored in the Miami Police Departments evidence room, has just become possible by a man named Fouchet and his group of thieves. After the heroin has been stolen, Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) and Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) are put on the case to get the stolen heroin back. The only lead they have though is a woman, Julie (Tea Leoni) that was shot at and who also watched her friend get gunned down by the same guys who stole the heroin. Thanks to Marcus and Mike's `shoot first and ask questions later' tactics, they are about to be yanked off the case and Fouchet will get away with the heroin and the murder of Julie's friend.
Back in 1995, I would've rated this movie at a 10 on a scale of 5. I was also 16. This movie is perfect for the way I used to be. Women, fast cars, money, and all the action a man could ask for. Yes...hormones were in charge of anything and everything I thought about. Now that I'm older (you do the math), I've calmed down a lot more. Yes I still love those same things I was talking about, but now instead of one lower brain thinking, I now have two. Usually the top one has more say-so in what I do now, depending on the amount of alcohol in me. So after seeing this movie for maybe my 10th or 20th time, I would have to say this... I still love it. Michael Bay knows action. Yes it can be extremely over the top, but I don't care. It's an action movie, and I'm here for some crazy stunts. And it delivers. Probably my favorite scene would be the bathroom scene where Marcus is getting a beat down, but delivering it back also. And oh the slow-mo that Bay is known for is littered in here. Sometimes it's great, like when the good guys are coming out of an elevator and they see the bad guys. That was nice. Then you got scenes where it's definitely not needed. For instance, during the heroine heist, they slow-mo a pad lock being cut. Yep. The movie has a lot of action, but it also has a lot of comedy in it as well. The comedic duo of Smith and Lawrence is perfect. Which is good, because I'm not a fan of Martine Lawrence. But in this movie (as well as the sequel), he actually cracks me up. Joe Pantoliano plays Captain Howard and I must say his character is a riot. But aren't they all usually in buddy cop movies? Always screaming and saying some wise crack. I will say though the funny starts to get a little repetitious towards the end and a little tiresome.
Bad Boys is probably one of my favorite Michael Bay films. If you hate the guy though, you'll probably dislike this also. It's full of action, guns, cars, adrenaline pumping music, and some hot women, and a story full of holes. What's not to like?
P.S. - I remember thinking Tea Leoni was the hottest chick in the world when this first came out... lol. Not so much anymore though.

A lot of action, but the little guy was miscast here, he may talk big & tough, but on 1st sight, i don't pay attention to his character

Martin Lawrence with Will Smith = Very funny. This was a great movie. Just the way they interacted with each other was great. And not to mention non stop action. A great buy.
Great fun July 8, 2008

What a funny movie. I think that whoever decided to put Will Smith and Martin Lawrence together for this should get a medal. I laughed myself silly. Excellent!
