The drug ecstasy is flowing into Miami, and the police want it stopped. Police Detective Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) and his partner, Mike Lowrey (Will Smith), are just the men to do it. They track the drugs to a Cuban smuggler, Johnny Tapia (Jordi Mollà), who is also involved in a bloody war with Russian and Haitian mobsters. If that isn't bad enough, there's tension between the two cops because Lowrey is romantically involved with Burnett's sister, Syd (Gabrielle Union).

Namrata Joshi Outlook An unpleasant, mean movie all the way. Rated: 1/4 Jan 4, 2019 Full Review Collin Levey Wall Street Journal Like our two loose cannons with badges, the movie misses its target at least as often as it hits it. Along the way, as well, it will likely batter a few brain cells into a premature grave. Jun 6, 2014 Full Review Bruce Diones The New Yorker The producer Jerry Bruckheimer and the director Michael Bay's buddy-cop destructorama has all the editing beats of a sex film. Jun 6, 2014 Full Review Casey Chong Casey's Movie Mania With a bigger budget, (Michael) Bay goes all out in the action sequences. His camerawork may have been more frenetic compared to his 1995 debut but he still directs them with enough propulsive energy to keep you engaged. Rated: 3/5 May 30, 2024 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies “Bad Boys II” is brash, tawdry, and completely full of itself. It makes for a noticeable step down from a movie that wasn’t all that great to begin with Rated: 1.5/5 Aug 19, 2022 Full Review Shea Serrano The Ringer It's not a Good Movie and it's not a Bad Movie and it's not a Good Bad Movie and it's not a Bad Good Movie. It's a Highlight-Reel Movie. Oct 4, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Jessica S This is one of my all time favorite movies! This one is by far my favorite of all of the Bad Boys films! There is action, comedy, great storyline and suspense. Smith and Lawrence do an amazing job feeding off each other all the way around, but their comedy cannot be matched, replicated, duplicated or topped! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/09/24 Full Review Dimitra T Das dieser Film so gut ist überrascht mich immer wieder aufs Neue.Die Action war extrem geil.Will Smith und Martin Lawrence sind Super zusammen und haben eine Mega Chemie.Der Schurke war zwar nicht gut aber wesentlich besser als der vom ersten Teil.Der Humor ist lustig weil er halt aus den nichts kommt und einen überrascht und krass zum Lachen bringen.Das ist der Film wo alles Explodiert.Das ist der Film wo so viele Leute abgeknallt werden und es deutlich mehr Humor gibt und zum einen sorgt das für eine leider sehr flache Handlung und Geschichte die der Film erzählen will aber dafür ist deutlich mehr unterhaltsam als der erste.Wirklich für jeden der Body-Cop Filme mag sollte sich diesen Film aufjedenfall angucken. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/26/24 Full Review George P You know what I think of this movie, amazing fun all the way through. You know what I say about the movie critics rating it bad, get a f’ing life you guys must live in a concrete block if you don’t find this movie fun and enjoyable to watch, this film ticks every box. Bad Boys For LIFEEEEEE!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/04/24 Full Review Tim O One of the worst movies I have ever seen. The acting, the plot, the dialogue was atrocious. I have seen Lawrence and Smith in really good movies, but this was so awful that it literally had no redeeming qualities to it. I had never seen the original when I watched this for the first time, and Im not going to either. When you see a stinker in a so-called franchise, it kills any want to see any of the others. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/05/24 Full Review Bruno S Não é o mais brilhante da franquia em termos de história e roteiro, mas é muito divertido! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/14/24 Full Review Charles T The best of its genere. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/05/24 Full Review Read all reviews
