Two South Miami cops, Mike Lowrey, a wild bachelor and Marcus Burnett, a family man, must find $100 million in stolen heroin before their department is shut down. In a race against time, detectives Bu...( read more  read more... )rnett and Lowrey track a master thief into the Miami underworld, dodging bullets and bad guys along the way. A sexy witness can identify the thief, but when she calls the station, she'll only talk to Lowry--and he's not around. Acting quickly, Burnett impersonates his partner to take the call, but there's only one catch: He has to pretend to be Lowrey for the duration of the case or risk losing her trust. Now, between shoot-outs and car chases, married man Burnett has to stick close to their only eye witness while playboy Lowrey goes home to his partner's wife and kids, maintaining the charade until the case is solved.

    I hate this film. It?s just 2 grown men arguing for 2 hours!

    To be honest, this is a pretty good action buddy flick, much better than most, not as good as 'Beverly Hills Cop' 'Lethal Weapon' etc... but the last good one probably. Smith is pretty cool here with nice lines, but Lawrence is still rather lame and totally not cool haha this bei...( read more)ng a Bay movie, its looks lovely and the stunts and gun fights are brutal, the next best thing here being the women on offer, yummy, Tea Leoni looks sultry and gorgeous with her dark locks. The movie is amusing and the villains work well, all in all its a good glossy package, if it had been made during the 80's it would have been a classic.

    Excellent action movie about two cops in Miami looking for thieves who have stolen drugs from the police station. Why do they always make the girl really pathetic, who does silly stuff and needs to be rescued? Love the car chase.

Critic Reviews

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

It's all special-effects noise and nonsense. full review

January 1, 2000
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

This movie is so good-looking it deserves a decent screenplay, instead of one more lope down memory lane. full review

January 1, 2000
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

A good half-hour's worth of nonsense in the middle keeps Bad Boys from being little better than a break- even proposition. full review

    Love the Freeze Mother-Bitches clip, my fave bit is when the woman walks out and the store clerk shouts "hey, freeze bitch" and will smith and martin lawrence draw they guns and smith says "no you freeze bitch!!" clerk says "oh shit, im fucked" then smith says "now back up, put the gun down, and get me a pack of tropical fruit bubbaliscious" then lawrence says "and some skittles", classic, they just roll right off each other in them moments

    will smith is the hottest person in the world and i think that film is absolutly amazing and martin lawrence is hillarious. these two together make the film fabulous and the second one alothough it isnt as great its still a good film and i must admit i love the whole quote at the start of the film - martin lawrence - 'i just hang out wid stupid arse friends who drive stupid arse cars that attract alot of mother fuckin attention' will smith - 'im gonna smack you in your peasy arse head thts wot im gonna do' M.L - 'you want some, come get sum' then they fight wid the dude's M.L - 'wesley snipes passenger 57 now give me a mother fuckin handy wipe' yes i know what your all thinking what a sad bitch but when you love will smith as much as i do then your obviously gonna know at least half the movie word for word lol!!!!!!!!!
