Review of Bad Boys for Life (2020) by Reallyreal — 20 Jan 2020

Another reminder that professional critics will dislike a movie like this, but recommend tired, tedious, over-written movies (Ad Astra). This movie is a lot of fun. If you liked the first two Bad Boys movies, you'll love this one.

This movie is also very self-aware. You're watching two men- One who has embraced his new point in life, and another who is struggling with the fact that he's not the same as he was when we saw him 20 years ago.

A lot of the jokes land. There were times that the entire theater was laughing. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are back in form. It was an extremely entertaining movie. Was it perfect? No, but I wasn't looking for perfection.

I was looking to be entertained on a Sunday night, and I was entertained for a solid 2 hours. It was well worth the money.
