Bad Boys for Life was surprising with its fresh screenplay, which put new wind in the franchise’s sails. But without input from Joe Carnahan, the screenplay for Ride or Die gets sloppy. Forced jokes and a moderately interesting plot, routine action without a single memorable scene. The overwrought scene with a helicopter seems to have been flown in from the Fast & Furious franchise. The fierceness and polish of Bay’s action style is history. However, Bay appears in one shot, DJ Khaled in a whole scene, and the central duo are still cool even without good jokes. The nostalgia, bolstered by Mark Mancina’s musical motif and the setting of Miami skyscrapers with Caribbean beaches and palm trees, simply works. And young Reggie rulez! ()
For me, the best episode of the franchise. It's not as unbearably loud as the first one, nor as visually aggressive as second one, or as shallow in plot as in the third one, which bordered almost on a Mexican soap opera. It has proper with, unexpectedly funny scenes, good visual ideas, and during action scenes the camera circles the space in an interesting way and chooses unconventional angles. And the biggest surprise is the one I least expected it from. Martin Lawrence may still be a pain in the ass, but holy wonder, he's funny here too. Starting with the unwanted "visit to the beyond" the goofiness and his sort of messiah complex make sense and I just enjoy the dude as an actor, unlike, say, the king of awkwardness Kevin Hart. The only one who spoils it a bit is the character of Will Smith's son, the youngster just can't act and in all the scenes he looks equally impassive, as if he's not even enjoying it. ()
If you like this series, if you liked the third part, you should be satisfied here too. It's not a significant shift in quality, it's just a standard solid action comedy, where the mutual banter between Martin Lawrence and Will Smith works, but above all it's pulled by well-done action, which at times takes your breath away. Adil el Arbi and Bilall Fallah know their job. There are nice Miami visuals, a decent bad guy played by Eric Dane (Euphoria), decently brutal R-rated action with engaging camera forays, top visuals, some twist and turns and working one-liners. The whole film paces well with no deaf spots and it's exactly the right action entertainment that's missing in cinemas and you can take anyone to see it. If you expect a film with a well thought out plot, you won't be satisfied here, but if you know what to expect from a film, you can't be disappointed. 8/10. ()
Mike and Marcus are back, and since the captain calls from beyond the grave to tell them he has another case for them, they won't be bored. But you might be a little. The fourth outing of the Bad Boys attempts to build on previous installments not only in style, but more importantly in story, and sometimes overdoes it with the nostalgia, references and recalling small details from twenty years ago. The heroes haven't moved anywhere, they repeat what they've always done, just with a lot of new completely useless characters and the most boring villains of the series around them. The action, however, is top-notch. It just needs a little more care next time, even in the scenes where no one is shooting at anyone. ()
A bit of a forced sequel, because the third part made money, and valuable brands are in desperate shortage, especially in this year's cinematic misery. A somewhat clichéd plot with unjustly vilified (haha) policemen, whom Ethan Hunt, for example, faces in every installment, just more of the same. However, it depends on how much you like Smithe and Lawrence, especially Will who still maintains great shape, and Martin has also put in some work. The lines worked for me in 90% of cases (some might find it too much in their fifties), the action was decent, although it won't go down in history as the best, it's still a solid seven, which doesn't offend and especially in Sony-produced films, it's above average. I rate it on par with the third part, feeling that the third one was more praised, and the fourth more hated; I disagree with both. ()
