Go back and watch the original Bad Boys!
Manage episode 425726650 series 3332717
With Bad Boys: Ride or Die in theaters now, we went back to watch the original Bad Boys film from 1995. The Bad Boys franchise is now a billion dollar one, but it was fun to go back to before Will Smith became blockbuster box office and Michael Bay truly blew up!
Topics discussed:
- Will Smith and Martin Lawrence have a natural and (very) bankable on-screen chemistry.
- Michael Bay does a solid job in his feature film directorial debut.
- Part of the plot line feels like it is based on a typical 'Three's Company' misunderstanding.
- The movie is lower on the scale of hip hop movies but we still consider it a hip hop movie.
- Will Smith's career as an A-list blockbuster actor started with this film.

Michael Bay directed many music videos at the beginning of his career, including two for Vanilla Ice: Play That Funky Music and I Love You.
