Bad Boys and Little Women: jameskingmovies's Week in Movies
May 15, 2020 - 11:47 BST James King As the old saying goes: 'There are no new ideas in Hollywood'. Still, when it leads to sequels and adaptations as enjoyable as my two picks this week, that’s no bad thing. Also, prepare to have your spirits lifted by a musical sensation that’s hitting small screens this summer. Happy viewing!
Best new action film - 25 May Bad Boys for Life Twenty-five years ago, Will Smith and Martin Lawrence injected new life into the buddy cop movie with Bad Boys. By setting the action in sultry Miami and filling the soundtrack with slinky R&B, the story of chalk-and-cheese detectives Mike and Marcus was way cooler than the Lethal Weapons and turned Big Willy into a Big Star. A sequel in 2003 lacked some of the charm but it didn’t stop talk of a Part 3 for many years.
Even the plot of BAD BOYS FOR LIFE harks back to the early days, with playboy Mike coming face-to-face with an old love and realising his life is now in danger. Meanwhile homely Marcus finally comes to terms with not being young anymore and reaches a drastic decision. Only the updating of the music from Diana King’s retro reggae banger ‘Shy Guy’ to DJ Khaled and J Balvin reminds us we’re not in 1995 anymore.
