Bad Boys

"The pairing of Martin Lawrence and Will Smith generates a winning comic chemistry."

"It has relentless editing, slick action sequences, and blows up stuff real good."

"A frantically slick and thoroughly enjoyable extravaganza."

"This highly polished package is formulaic in the extreme..."

"This film isn't aiming for high-toned drama, just high-energy entertainment, which is what it delivers."

"Bad Boys... benefits from Smith and Lawrence's chemistry. As long as they're on screen together, things breeze along. But when they're apart, the movie flounders."

"Even by the low-low standards of cheap action flicks, this one's bad, boys."

"It's all special-effects noise and nonsense."

"Entertainment of the gratingly commercial, teeth-rattling variety..."

"Directed by Michael Bay from a script by several hacks..."

"This is pretty conventional fare, but it's consistently diverting."

"You may rest assured that whenever a glass object hoves into view, it will be shattered in slo-mo by the end of the scene."

"Haven't we seen this all before? Four or five dozen times?"
