They're back - older, wiser, and one wants to retire. Mike (Will Smith) is still a bachelor, working old school, driving fast, and not wanting things to change. Marcus (Martin Lawrence) is ready to retire, he's got a new grandson, and is tired. He's made it fairly safely through his twenty five years - he's done.
But, there's some revenge kills happening and Mike's on the list. The young crew, AMMO, a special police division, are researching cartel action, trying to piece it together. Mike and Marcus have that banter we love and they are in for this last ride together. Hope it's not to die together.
Bad Boys for Life is a mix of crazy blow 'em up, serious friendship, cop history, old school techniques versus new age technology - all against the backdrop of Miami - blue water, fast cars, bikinis, and glitz.
Ray and I enjoyed this piece of fluff. Plenty of funny lines about old age (we're talking 50s here, but in cop life that's a long time). Smith and Lawrence have great comic timing and you can tell they had fun making this film. Bad Boys for Life - hug it out. Then change that grand baby's diaper.
Wasn't sure if it would be fun and funny or just a sad sequel.
ReplyDeleteno, it works. They have the personality and vibe, I think
DeleteGlad you enjoyed this one, and now I have "Bad Boys" going through my head. It's a catchy tune. I'm not complaining, Joanne. In fact, thank you.
ReplyDeleteHave a great, calm week.
yep - the tune hung in all weekend long. And now it started again. They even make fun of it in the movie.
DeleteWe tried to watch #1 but hated the language. Is the next better?
ReplyDeletenope - sorry. F-bombs fly.
DeleteSounds like a winner. I'll be giving it a go. I enjoyed the first, the second was way more over the top, but still enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteTrifecta...go for it.
DeleteHi Joanne - sounds fun at some stage - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeletenot sure if it's your style, but Ray and I just wanted mind candy - no thinking, just silly entertainment.
DeletePleased you enjoyed this book Joanne.
