Bad Boys II Ratings & Reviews
- Michael Surber19 februari 2026Bad boys, bad boys... whatcha gonna do? Probably the best one of the whole series although the last two have been pretty strong. Tons of stuff gets blown up in typical Michael Bay fashion although that's not really a bad thing.
- Callum28 december 2025⭐⭐⭐½ – Bad Boys II – Louder, longer, and utterly unapologetic. This film has everything: big action, big comedy, and that now-legendary banter between Martin Lawrence and Will Smith turned up to eleven. It’s also absolutely packed with quotes that lodge themselves in your brain whether you want them there or not. “How am I supposed to look at my pupils, Mike?” is still gold, and the leather rant alone probably accounts for half the nostalgia people have for this movie. This is Michael Bay at his most unfiltered. No restraint, no apologies, just pure Bayhem — explosions, shootouts, car chases, and excess layered on top of excess. It’s long, it’s indulgent, and at times it’s almost daring you to tap out. And yet… it keeps working. The reason is the duo. Smith and Lawrence are completely locked in by this point, and their chemistry does the heavy lifting through even the most ridiculous sequences. Their timing is sharp, the insults land, and the film always knows when to let the banter breathe between the chaos. Is it excessive? Absolutely. Could it have been trimmed? Definitely. But as a snapshot of early-2000s action cinema, this is pure spectacle — messy, loud, and confident enough to get away with it. It might not be refined, but it’s memorable, and it cements Mike and Marcus as an all-time buddy-cop pairing. 🍺 A frosty bottled lager — loud, fizzy, and best enjoyed when you’re in the mood for maximum volume.
- Luke Erickson16 augustus 2024This movie has everything, great action, great comedy, and unforgettable witty banter between Martin Lawrence and Will Smith. A few memorable quotes,, "How am I supposed to look at my pupils Mike? Roll the eyes in the back of my head?" "Supple leather, do you ever just rub your leather? "You should see the sexy sh#t I got on. I love it when you call me bunny nose!" ( I always thought he said Bunny love)
- Humpty20 februari 2025Ah before Marcus got fat.. Also shout out Reggie he the goat!
- Kevin Ward1 juli 2025Like the leveled up cinematography compared to the first one—impossible camera moves, 360 degree shootout, etc. But man, this felt soooo long this time around. Still has pretty great action though.
- ርልዪረ30 januari 2025/̵͇̿̿/’̿’̿ ̿ ̿̿ I think that Bad Boys II is an awesome film. It is much better than the first movie. The death-defying stunts that are over-the-top, the clever direction and writing, the quirky dialogue, awesome pacing and cinematography, the hilarious humor, and you've got my friends, one of the most unappreciated sequels ever made. It's not terribly unappreciated, but still, not everyone liked this. I do not understand the hate it got from critics. Like seriously, it has a 23% on RT and a 38% on Metacritic. Really? And the critics consensus said "Two and a half hours of explosions and witless banter". Whoever wrote this knows nothing about action-comedies. This movie went over their heads. It does have a 78% by audiences though. It's always the great films that never got/get the respect it's supposed to have. This movie is by no means a masterpiece, but it did not deserve to be chewed up and spat out by most critics like it was a piece of garbage. The critics do know that just giving it a low rating is just going to make things worse. But what's worse about it? Well, this won a Stinkers Bad Movie Award for Worst Sequel and was nominated for Most Intrusive Musical. The film has sustained a large cult following in recent years, but still, that's just bad criticism. I literally died laughing during the film. They do not know how to review great films properly. This might be one of Bay's best flicks. His recent transformers film that I did see in the theaters does show how he has failed as a filmmaker. I'd highly recommend that you go see this great film unspoiled to experience it as an edge of your seat popcorn flick which it really sets out to be, but of course don't expect this to be like Shakespeare, or if you haven't watched it in a while, go rewatch it.
