In many ways, Bad Boys for Life is the Fast Five of this franchise. With a lot more drama than the last two to really make you care about these characters, this film, in terms of characters and story, is eons better than anything presented in the last two.
Due to some unexpected circumstances, a vengeance plot is set in motion, which finds them on the hunt for the Aretas family. Marcus wishes to actually retire this time and the violence is what is keeping Mike going. Maybe that's why this review may seem almost too positive for a film like this, but it's been a long time since a franchise has turned itself around this well.īad Boys for Life picks up in real-time, 17 years after the events of the previous film and nearly the entire cast has returned, which was nice to see.
I still find them to be very entertaining, but lacking in many other areas. Upon the initial release of Bad Boys for Life, nearly 17 years since the release of Bad Boys II, I decided to revisit the previous two films. I enjoyed one and two for what they were, but I never felt the need to rewatch them over and over. That's not exactly what I believe, but there are some massive fans of these movies out there. While it didn't make a huge dent in the box office back in 1995, the first Bad Boys film is now revered by some as one of director Michael Bay's better films. What a strange ride the Bad Boys franchise has been.
