Bad Boys: Ride or Die Review
‘Bad Boys: Ride or Die’ is a Noisy, Incoherent, Yet Entertaining Mess. Overstuffed and overamped, ‘Bad Boys: Ride or Die’ still manages to eke out a few crowd-pleasing moments when it isn’t just being loud and nonsensical.
No one was more surprised than us when we walked out of 2020’s ‘Bad Boys for Life’ having enjoyed the film. Especially coming some 17 years after the unpleasant ‘Bad Boys II,’ and with Michael Bay abdicating the director’s chair to Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah (credited as Adil & Bilall), the third entry in the franchise was as mayhemic (if not Bayhemic) as ever, but actually offered up some character development, a decently structured plot, and yes, plenty of eye-watering yet well-staged action and violence, not to mention the undeniable Will Smith-Martin Lawrence chemistry.

Bad Boys Collection
A franchise of films about the cop duo Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett, blowing stuff up and crazy car chases. They get the job done but at an expensive cost.
