DVD Bad Boys II
No one goes to a movie directed by Michael Bay for delicacy and grace; you go because Michael Bay (Armageddon, The Rock) knows how to make your bones rattle during a high-speed chase when a car flips over, spins through the air, and smacks another car with a visceral crunch. Bad Boys II fulfills this expectation and then some. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence may be mere puppets amid all this burning rubber and shrieking metal, but they actually provide a human core to the endless cascade of car wrecks and gunfights. Their easy rapport makes their personal problems--a running joke is Lawrence's attempts at anger management--as engaging as the sheer visual hullabaloo of bullets and explosions. The plot is recycled nonsense about drug lords and dead bodies being used to smuggle drugs, but orchestration of violence is symphonic. If that's your thing, then this is for you. --Bret Fetzer
I really liked how fast it got to me but I have one complain. I orderd Bad Boys 2 on UMD (PSP) but I got it on DVD and because I don't live in America I have to watch it my cmputer. This has never hapeend to me before on Amazon so that is my only complain. Otherwise it was a great Item and a good movie and the best part was it got here right on time end there was no damage on the disk.
Thank you Amaon for letting me write this review and I wish to do buisness with you more.
Bad Boys II
by Ramon Hamilton
The movie I am reviewing is Bad Boys II. It includes
action, suspense, comedy, and drama. It takes place in
Miami. Two Miami police officers, Marcus and Mike,
work very hard to try and stop people who are selling
drugs within the city.
My favorite part in the movie was the comedy. One
of the comedies I liked was when Mike shot Marcus in
the butt on accident. Another example was when
Marcus and Mike went to the funeral home to look in
dead bodies to find drugs. The last piece of comedy
that I liked the most was when Marcus ingested X, a
drug.
I believe that action impacted the movie a lot. I
choose three different types of action that I liked. The
action that I liked was when Syd got chased by the
Haitians. The other action that I liked was when the
police force was shooting at the Haitians. The craziest
piece of action that I liked was when the Haitians stole
an 18 wheeler and were rolling cars off of it while
chasing Syd, who was driving a Denali.
If this movie didn't have suspense, it would have
really sucked. My favorite scene of suspense was when
Marcus and Mike pretended to be bug sprayers so that
they could set up cameras in Johnny Tapia's house.
Another part of suspense that I liked was when Marcus
and Mike went to Cuba to catch Johnny Tapia. The last
scene of suspense that interested me the most was
when the Haitian's tried to take the money from Syd, a
former DEA agent.
Last but not least, I also liked the drama in the
movie. The drama that I liked the most was when
Marcus and Mike went to the Haitian's house and were
shooting at each other. Another piece of drama that I
liked was when Marcus got mad at Mike for dating Syd,
his sister. Last, but not least, the drama that I thought
was the funniest was when Marcus got mad because
Syd was working undercover, doing a drop, trying to
catch the Haitians.
Yuck!
This movie had so much popcorn and reheated cheese, you'll be in danger of choking to death when watching this. Too much action, too many bad jokes, too much over-the-top shocks, and too much Will Smith and Martin Lawrence. After all, who would even pay attention to this movie were it not for the cars being blown up, people being killed in increasingly outlandish ways, dead bodies flying out of a morgue van, and immature sexual references? Martin Lawrence was a pest, Will Smith was average at best, and Michael Bay proves once again that he's a horrible director. There were one or two scenes that were mildly interesting or funny, but overall, you'd have to pay me to sit through this again. Another summer blockbuster/sequel that's not worth a viewing. You can't take anything in here seriously, and you can't really laugh at anything either. As a result, why bother?
Slick to a fault, this glossy action flick takes place in sunny Florida, where Martin Lawrence and Will Smith play two cops--one married with kids, the other a swinging bachelor. The two are forced to trade places to foil criminal mastermind Fouchet (Tchéky Karyo) who has stolen $100 million worth of heroin from a police lockup. Violent, illogical, and filled with wall-to-wall profanity, Bad Boys was the last film produced by the hit-making team of Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer before Simpson's untimely death, and marked the directorial debut of Michael Bay who followed up with The Rock. Bad Boys will be of interest to action buffs and fans of Téa Leoni, who makes one of her early screen appearances in the central supporting role. --Jeff...

Samuel L. Jackson and Colin Farrell swagger through S.W.A.T., a guns-and-big-trucks macho extravaganza based on the 1970s TV show of the same name, about the police teams brought in to take care of extremely dangerous situations. Jackson plays a sergeant brought out of retirement to form a new squad, which includes rebellious Farrell (The Recruit) and tough babe Michelle Rodriguez (Girlfight, Blue Crush). After a lot of training and head-butting with a smarmy police captain, the squad gets assigned to transfer the head of a European crime cartel (Olivier Martinez, Unfaithful) who's declared on television that he'll give $100 million to anyone who gets him out. Every scumbag in Los Angeles descends to claim the money, turning a routine transfer into a... More Info about this DVD Actor(s): Samuel L.

Like the high-revving imports and American muscle cars that roar down the streets of its south Florida setting, 2 Fast 2 Furious is tricked out to the max. While Vin Diesel opted for his XXX franchise, this obligatory sequel to The Fast and the Furious benefits from Diesel's absence, allowing returning star Paul Walker to shine while forging a lively partnership with rising star Tyrese, who fulfills his sidekick duties with more vitality than Diesel could ever muster. The Miami/Dade locations are another bonus, lending colorful backdrop to the most dazzling street-racing sequences (both real and digitally composited) ever committed to film. The plot is disposable--former cop Walker and jailbird Tyrese are recruited by the FBI to dethrone a thuggish kingpin (Cole...

Style trumps substance in Man on Fire, a slick, brooding reunion of Crimson Tide star Denzel Washington and director Tony Scott. The ominous, crime-ridden setting is Mexico City, where a dour, alcoholic warrior with a mysterious Black Ops past (Washington) seeks redemption as the devoted bodyguard of a lovable 9-year-old girl (the precociously gifted Dakota Fanning), then responds with predictable fury when she is kidnapped. Prolific screenwriter Brian Helgeland (Mystic River, L.A. Confidential) sets a solid emotional foundation for Washington's tormented character, and Scott's stylistic excess compensates for a distended plot that's both repellently violent and viscerally absorbing. Among Scott's more distracting techniques is the use of free-roaming,... More Info about this DVD Director(s): Tony Scott DVD Release Date: Released the 14 September 2004 Usually ships in 24 hours

As paranoid cop Del Spooner, Will Smith (Independence Day, Men in Black) displays both his trademark quips and some impressive pectoral muscles in I, Robot. Only Spooner suspects that the robots that provide the near future with menial labor are going to turn on mankind--he's just not sure how. When a leading roboticist dies suspiciously, Spooner pursues a trail that may prove his suspicions. Don't expect much of a connection to Isaac Asimov's classic science fiction stories; I, Robot, the action movie, isn't prepared for any ruminations on the significance of artificial intelligence. This likable, efficient movie won't break any new ground, but it does have an idea or two to accompany its jolts and thrills, which puts it ahead of most recent action flicks....
