Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

No one goes to a movie directed by Michael Bay for delicacy and grace; you go because Michael Bay (Armageddon, The Rock) knows how to make your bones rattle during a high-speed chase when a car flips over, spins through the air, and smacks another car with a visceral crunch. Bad Boys II fulfills this expectation and then some. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence may be mere puppets amid all this burning rubber and shrieking metal, but they actually provide a human core to the endless cascade of car wrecks and gunfights. Their easy rapport makes their personal problems--a running joke is Lawrence's attempts at anger management--as engaging as the sheer visual hullabaloo of bullets and explosions. The plot is recycled nonsense about drug lords and dead bodies being used to smuggle drugs, but orchestration of violence is symphonic. If that's your thing, then this is for you. --Bret Fetzer

From The New Yorker

Action porn. The producer Jerry Bruckheimer and the director Michael Bay's buddy-cop destructorama has all the editing beats of a sex film. A few lines of dialogue (delivered, for the most part, with fake enthusiasm by Will Smith and Martin Lawrence) followed by bursting gunfire, theatrical chases, and the inevitable big-bang ending. -Bruce Diones

5.0 out of 5 stars A great popcorn flick, October 26, 2003

This review is from: Bad Boys II (Two-Disc Special Edition) (DVD)

Being such a fan of the first movie with its comic timing, excellent direction that Michael always brings (Though Pearl Harbor was crap) and a great score (yet is sounds suspiciously like Speed's Hmmmmmm) anyway...i was surprised to find that I loved the second one even more...and the freeway chase scene rivals The Matrix Reloaded (Yes I said it!!) I think everything was better because Will Smith had more time to work on his comic/action skills between these films, and Michael definetly knows how to play to HIS audience as does Jerry Bruckhiemer. And the camera work in this film was turned up to 11! the 360 degree shooting scene going from room to room through bullet shots! GENIOUS! I definetly can see this film spawning at least one more sequel and is the Letha Weapon of our generation....with lots more blood and a more hardcore style of comedy.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Action Movie That I Am Very Pleased In Watching!!!, November 8, 2003

This review is from: Bad Boys II (Two-Disc Special Edition) (DVD)

... Well I finally got to see Bad Boys 2 a few weeks ago and I was very pleased. I can't wait for the dvd to come out.

The movie is ACTION packed to say the least. There is action, brief nudity, a lot of cursing, violent and digusting killings, and a lot of drugs. It is not a kid's movie and I was disapointed to see how many people brought their kids with them to see this movie.

Anyway, Will Smith and Martin Lawrence make a great team and yes their jokes were sometimes annoying and dry but not enough to be overshadowed by the really funny scenes. I liked the first Bad Boys film but I really feel that the sequel is much better. I would not be surprised to see a third installment.

If you like action, good special effects and great stunt coordination, this film is for you. I can't wait to watch it again!

4.0 out of 5 stars Bad Boys II- Simple, Funny and Just Plain Cool, August 23, 2003

A Kid's Review

Bad Boys II is just one of those films you know you're going to have a great time watching. It's hilarious, action-packed and simply stunning in some places (specifically car chases). Will Smith reprise his role as Mike Lowrey and Martin Lawrence reprises his role as Marcus. Gabrielle Union comes in as Marcus'
sister, Syd. The plot of this film is simple, Mike and Marcus are investigating some intensity within the drug trade, our villan who is transporting ecstasy secretly played by Jordi Molla. Suprisingly I must say this film was rather gory, some of which was gratuitous. The car chases were the real highlights of the film, especially the highway chase with truck and the falling cars, simply unbelievable. I thought this film was a bit predictable but I still enjoyed it. Though it is 2 and 1/2 hours long, it doesn't feel to long since it contains incessant action/violence and comedy. Though this one is rather profane and obscene I began to not care about within the first 10 minutes. Now who's funnier, Will or Martin? Well I'd say they're equally hilarious. I liked this one better than the original "Bad Boys." This is definetly worth seeing in theatres,
for you'll have a great time and just laught pervasively. Bad Boys II is rated R for Strong Violence and Action (indeed very true), Pervasive Language (also very true), ... and Drug Content. The [physical] content is somewhat moderate, mainly an explicit [physical] situation and some lewd [physical] innuendo. The drug content is fairly moderate as well. See Bad Boys II, a must own when it's released on Video and DVD.
