"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME

Bad Boys | 1995 | R | - 3.7.9

Will Smith and Martin Lawrence star as two wise-cracking Miami detectives investigating a drug case.

SEX/NUDITY 3 - Many sexual references (some graphic and some obscene). A few women are seen in tight, short outfits; some gyrate in G-strings. A man and woman kiss in bed.

VIOLENCE/GORE 7 - A man is shot and falls out of a van and a man is killed with a spike through his neck (a quick scene, with no blood). During an extended scene a man shoots a woman and she falls into a glass table resulting in a fair amount of blood; the killer then shoots another man many times in the torso and chest and there is blood (this scene is very violent and long). A bloodied corpse with maggots crawling on it is shown. There is a shoot-out and then a car chase culminating in a car explosion (with people screaming because they are on fire). Several fist fights.

LANGUAGE 9 - About 50 F-words and 50 scatological terms, numerous milder obscenities and many sexual references.

DISCUSSION TOPICS - Police corruption, protective custody of witnesses, male friendships, marital relationships, drugs.

MESSAGE - Your friendships are important. The police are there to protect society.

CAVEATS

Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.

We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.

Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
