: Bad Boys II
I was expecting the worst, but this wasn’t as bad as I’d thought. It’s better than the first, in fact. It is long — way too long at well over two hours. The plot meanders and in the end it’s just a mini-war (literally) with a shootout ending. Along the way there’s silly character-based drama with the two partners arguing and having conflict (of course all resolved by the end). The film’s best when it’s just the two guys shooting with guns and mouth and not trying to make the film more than it is. I could edit this down to a terrific 90 minute film that would be non-stop action. As it is, the film tries too hard. Still, it’s not terrible, and there are a few good moments.
