'Bad Boys II' [SPOILERS]
I watched this film yesterday.
I have come to the conclusion that this film is basically a representation of American foreign policy.
You have 'Bad Boys' who go around shooting shit up "cause it's the right thing to do" not caring a **** about 'the rules' as long as they get results and not giving a **** about innocent by-standers who might get hurt as a result of their actions.
After the first shoot out i wondered why W.S and M.L's guns hadnt been taken off them and why they weren't writing big **** off reports to explain their actions but were in fact out again shooting more shit up.
I also wondered about the legality of keeping a machine gun in your private car.
I then decided that if i kept on worrying about the whole 'logic aspect' of the film i wasnt going to enjoy myself so i switched off my brain and just enjoyed the random violence.
[/rant]
So anyways what is your take on the film?

Re: 'Bad Boys II' [SPOILERS]
I enjoyed it, I thought it was very funny.
The fact that it wasn't completely plausible in real life didn't spoil the film at all for me.

Re: 'Bad Boys II' [SPOILERS]
it didnt make much sense and wasnt as good as the first one, but it did have some funny moments.
ps were the black doods that were shot up in the pink house (ie the black man with the blone braids and his friends) were they haitains or jamaicans? im sure i heard them say the former but my friend says it was the latter. And what happened to the soilders who were left in the baddy's mansion in cuba? they show WL ML back in usa but dont say what happened to the others.

Re: 'Bad Boys II' [SPOILERS]
I cringed from the acting. The characters were taken too far to extremes, and neither actor seemed to give any effort.
Oh and the horrible attempts at slapstick.

Re: 'Bad Boys II' [SPOILERS]
I personaly enjoyed it, and found it greatly amusing.
However, the guy on E should have been a fair bit more 'hyper' than that.

Re: 'Bad Boys II' [SPOILERS]
Why can't a character in a film be homophobic?
And how eactly can you "spoil" a film like that?

I enjoyed the random violence. I laughed especially hard when the John Doe's were falling out of the back of the moturary truck. I'm a sick bastard at heart.
I also enjoyed the banter between W.S and M.L

Re: 'Bad Boys II' [SPOILERS]
Too bad they used a 575 Maranello, instead of a 911.
