The boys are back! Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are rolling at full throttle in Bad Boys: Ride
or Die
. The cinematic cop duo, return as Mike Lowery (Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Lawrence) in
their fourth install of the Bad Boys franchise.

Well, once again, the Miami detectives strap up to take down corrupt crews and right some
major wrongs. This time the stakes are much higher. The investigation involves the Miami PD
and its commander, their friend Captain Howard (Joe Pantoliano).

Recline your seat and prep for massive over-the-top action sequences, mixed with comedy,
drama and outrageous moments. The last film in the franchise was Bad Boys for Life in 2020.
So, this movie is the reunion fans have been waiting to see! You can feel the growth in maturity
for both characters. Their bond is unshakable. Even with their guns blazing, you get those last
men standing – brotherly love vibes.

Adil and Bilall return to direct this latest sequel. The film is stacked with old and new cast
members. OGs like Vanessa Hudgens, Paola Nunez, and Jacob Scipio reprise their roles. Some
of the star newbies joining the cast are Tasha Smith (Empire), Tiffany Haddish (Girls Trip) and
Melanie Liburd (This is Us).

The Fresh Prince (Smith) and Ole Marty Mar (Lawrence) showed up and showed out! They did
what they do best in this franchise. It was extremely action-packed, emotional, funny and very
entertaining. Bad Boys: Ride or Die delivered a worthy big-screen hit! Overall, you won’t mind
rocking along on this fourth ride.
