User Reviews
With some much needed change in direction, an improvement in action and humor, and as always the beloved chemistry of Lawrence and Smith, Bad Boys For Life truly harnesses the potential of the franchise by doing something different and graciously succeeding. The film is largely entertaining, with action pieces that are no longer so much in your face, but feel more personal and thrilling than before. Martin Lawrence and Will Smith truly continue to harness the films energy to a point, providing some great comedic and far more serious performances than before, making their characters not only more round, but likeable. Directors Bilall Fallah and Adil El Arbi truly take the film to the next level, with some clever set pieces, use of story, and by far some amazing visuals. The film is oddly beautiful, which is not only refreshing from the sun drenched look of Bay's style before it, but also fits well. The style does seem a bit odd, considering the previous ones are oh so different, but it works in a way that doesn't seem too forced or too out of place. The use of the new team, Ammo, in the film is a well appreciated addition, and makes for some quite humorous moments. The villain also seems far more rounded than in previous films, and provides for a quiet interesting arc. The biggest problem I had with the film, is the progression of the story, and pacing throughout. The film bounces around a lot forward with things moving rather fast over large periods of time, making it seem kinda choppy. It never felt too long, but it felt like a lot to process given the circumstances, and felt like it could have been better handled, and/or more condensed, which does dwindle from making it a bit better than it could have. In the end, however, Bad Boys For Life is a perfectly enjoyable and surprisingly refreshing sequel, that finally harnesses the talents of the stars involved and makes for a worthwhile plot that is not forced and cliche, but actually interesting. My Rating: 9/10
