Bad Boys II (2003)
Really cool
Will smith is really cool, this film is cool because of his real skills. He should be called 'real' smith, because his performance is bang on. The other chap is entertaining but a real bad man. I don't like him and i think he should leave this film. I have this on VHS and i tried to tape over every section featuring the Martin Lawrence chap in it, i tried to show this to my kids, but they didn't know what was happening?! I enjoyed it though, i felt without the Martin guy it was a superior film, but a bit illogical?! But i'm babbling.
Overall its a fun film with a big action explosion, and features some witty dialogues, but not witty enough i say! Give me real smith's role in this film any day, but get rid of the rest i say, real stinker.
I conclude that this movie is riddled with holes like martin Clarence should be.

It can deliver what you need on a Sunday morning
I watched this film about a week ago, whilst eating a medium sized bowl of porridge with sultanas and a bit of brown sugar. It was a really good breakfast, and this made a great complement! It may be a bit lo-fi, but the great action and comedy mix really provides a bit-of-bang-for-your-buck breakfast brain drain!! The action sequences are really fast and frantic, better possibly even than 'Dragon Warrior' and 'Rainbow Assassin II'. There is a really good scene with a hat throwing killer, who's razor hat is like the ultimate death Frisbee, which was an original idea that pushed this humble movie into the stratosphere. The dialogue is occasionally a bit hammy with a clumsy sub-title job. This film really deserves a bit more attention i feel, as its pretty basic but pulled off in a pretty fun way. Also the character interactions are HILARIOUS.
Overall this film i give 8 thumbs up. But the porridge was superior in almost every way. bye bye.

An interesting study of masculinity in a world gone mad
I felt that even though the main character of this film was a real 'hunk-bitch' it didn't detract from the fact that the world around him was totally oiled up and not at all appropriate for children, let alone innocent civilians. The film struck a real emotional chord with me, seeing as i had been refused from army service in '96 for not being able to raise my shield above my head. Therefore i felt the film was 'made for me' but in the end i felt my character wasn't portrayed at all accurately, for one thing i am not Greek, and ANOTHER THING i do not speak that way. i just have short arms OK, stop talking about it already. I hope they don't include me in the next film they are making. Overall i didn't enjoy the film.
