Hot fuzz was a great movie and it is funny how it was influenced by bad boys 2 since that one got negative reviews the makers should have made it be influenced in bad boys 1995 since that one earned better critic reviews than the 2003 sequal.
The fact that the first Bad Boys has a lower budget is why it impresses me more than the second one. It was able to be big and exciting with a smaller budget.
I really wish people didn’t mention “Reggie’s arch”. A great part is that it’s a complete surprise. Knowing something happens takes away from the moment.
This is a ranking and I feel there's a certain expectation that it's for people who have seen all 4 films. I was much more sensitive about what I said in my review of the film.
I'm currently watching Bad Boys for Life after watching the first two and I already like it more. The villian is way more bad ass. He shoots/kills and asks questions later. He doesn't mess around. The villian from the second movie I think is the weakness while the 3rd film is the strongest. It has more stakes. Not even the bad boys are safe. Will Smith almost dies in the beginning, and now the captain has been killed. It's like Mark Kincaid said in Scream 3, once you get to the third movie all bets are off.
I dont get why people focus on villians in a bad boys movie, the draw is will and Martin, and action, and bb3 lacked in the action department, killing off the captain was dumb, bb3 was easily the worse one
1. Bad Boys Ride or Die - almost perfect 2. Bad Boys for Life - the writing in this one took the franchise to another level 3. Bad Boys 4. Bad Boys II - too long and over bloated but still some good moments
Saw 4 last night, I’d go: 4. Bad Boys 7.5/10 3. Bad Boys II 8/10 2. Bad Boys Ride or Die 8/10 1. Bad Boys For Life 8/10 Love these movies, I always go back to them, this and Rush Hour are my top tier buddy cop films 😂
Bad Boys II is still my favorite. I liked the one better than the third. My ranking is: 1.) Bad Boys II 2.) Ride or die 3.) Original 4.) Bad Boys For Life
Great ranking, I had to click off the Patreon live to watch this one! My ranking 4th. Bad Boys II (too long) 3rd. Bad Boys Ride or Die 2nd. Bad Boys For Life 1st. Bad Boys All good movies, and it's very close for each placement.
This new Bad Boys was one of the funnest theater experiences I've had this year. Seeing it in a packed theater is definitely the best way to experience it. Shit was funny as hell. Martin Lawrence steals the movie
It’s a shame that you didn’t mention the directors. Their names are Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, and they are extremely talented. They come from Belgium, and we are sure to hear more from them in the future.
My ranking is simply the descending order. These movies just keep getting better. Ride or Die is my favorite because I never expected it to be this good after watching Bad Boys for life soo many times
4. Bad Boys-Despite not having the memorable elements of its sequels, this is still an enjoyable kickoff to this franchise with solid chemistry between Smith and Lawrence, some well done Michael Bay action, and a good enough central plotline for the banter, action, and subplots to hang on 3. Bad Boys II-While the actual plot for this movie is paper thin, that doesn’t stop this one from being a good time for its nonstop, excessive Michael Bay action sequences and Mike and Marcus’ chemistry being as fun as ever 2. Bad Boys: Ride or Die-Even though not everything in this entry fully comes together, it’s still a really fun time with stylized and exciting action sequences, lots of funny comedic bits, a story with memorable elements, and the ever watchable pairing of Will Smith and Martin Lawrence 1. Bad Boys for Life-Because of its added emotion, more memorable story, continued chemistry between the two leads, new characters, and removal of the excess of the second film, this movie took the franchise to new heights and is safely my favorite of these movies
That can’t be and there weren’t enough reviews on rotten tomatoes yet more can appear ones that were originally written back in the day and critics have got to have given it mostly positive reviews
The 2 new Bad Boys movies from the 2020s doesn't do their name "BAD" Boys justice! Bad Boys was not just supposed to be a action buddy comedy movie. It is about the recklessness and racism of our 2 protagonists! THAT's why it's called BAD BOYS! Unfortunately, Bad Boys For Life and Bad Boys Ride or Die are more "WATERED DOWN" versions of that! Bad Boys 2 (2003) is the epitome of what a Bad Boys movie is supposed to be! Now, I don't have nostalgia for the Bad Boys movies, I didn't grow up with them, the first movie came out before I was born, but I just like Michael Bay movies
Great ranking! I love all the Bad Boys films. The Bad Boys Quadrilogy joins Lethal Weapon. For me: 1. Bad Boys For Life 2. Bad Boys 3. Bad Boys II 4. Bad Boys: Ride or Die
I put bad boys 2 as my favorite. Like karate kid part 3 and roadhouse it’s was of the most ridiculous over the top entertainment movies ever and I love it
I didn't really have any interest in BB3 or 4 - however after hearing the great reviews - I think I will catch up on both. Thanks for all you do Sean🇨🇦
They are all good/fun films. No “bad” Ones. But my preference.. 4. Bad Boys - fun kickoff for the franchise 3. Ride or Die -enjoyed it, but just didn’t land as well with me for some reason. 2. For Life- Liked that it took a bit more serious tone, but still had the good action and comedy. 1. Bad boys 2- over the top epic action with comedy that landed throughout the entire movie. A guilty pleasure.
The throwing cars car chase. The video store scene where Martin and Will's private conversation is shown in the entire store The Woosah The Reggie scene Mike on ecstacy at the captain's house scene The throwing dead bodies car chase The rats scene The battle in Cuba The gun fight with the Haitians with the spinning camera No other movie in the franchise can match this movie scene for scene and no other one is funnier. Definitely Bas Boys 2 is the best one
This is really close for me. Too close to really matter, but: 4- Bad Boys 2 (longer than it needed to be 3- Bad Boys 4 Life (not a fan of how they [kinda]retconned Mike & Marcus’ friendship/partnership to give Mike a kid. 2- Bad Boys: Ride Or Die (really enjoyed it, maybe more than I thought I would) 1- Bad Boys (This is one of my all time favorites. A very flawed film, but the immediate chemistry of 2 sitcom stars with a first time director to make my favorite movie of all the 1990’s is legendary…to me).
At first I was going to say that Bad Boys II was the best film in the series, but this man has made me change my mind. His order of films is correct! Although Bad Boys II has the best action and some really good comedy, there was very little storyline outside of Marcus sister. The villian was just some random drug dealer who wasn't even that powerful.
They are all good in my opinion but that second one created by Michael Bay (Bad Boys II) is just unmatched. From the action N it’s humor. But the age Mike and Marcus are at everything seems right with the last two made by them. I don’t expect them to be killing ppl like crazy at that age anyways. But in the last two we surely got to dive into their lives a little more. 1.) Bad Boys II (Will Smith made this one n gave it some life with action n Martins (Marcus) personality gave it that edge it needed with his antics n humor 2.)bad boys 4… I like how Marcus was more carefree n loose in this one 3.)Bad Boys. Martins humor brought the charm to this one 4.) Bad boys 3 it was good but Marcus grew up with Mike it said that in the first and second movie why wouldn’t Marcus know of Mike going undercover for Captain Howard when he was younger but still a great movie in itself. I hope they Make a 5th n last one n if possible bring back Michael Bay n see what he can create with these two Marcus n Mike to close it out.
For my taste, I'd say...1, 4, 2, 3. To be fair, I've only watched the 3rd one once. So, maybe it would change. Either way, the original has always been my favorite one. But, I enjoy them all.
Planning on hopefully seeing Bad Boys Ride or Die next week for now my ranking goes as follows 1. Bad Boys for Life 2. Bad Boys 3. Bad Boys 2 I will update my ranking once I have seen Bad Boys Ride or Die.
My personal ranking 1. Bad Boys For Life 2. Bad Boys II 3. Bad Boys: Ride Or Die 4. Bad Boys Again like Sean I like to love all of these films, none of them are bad
My Bad Boys Franchise Ranking: 1. Bad Boys for Life (2020) 10/10 2. Bad Boys: Ride or Die (2024) 10/10 3. Bad Boys 2 (2003) 10/10 4. Bad Boys (1995) 10/10
My ranking Bad Boys II Bad Boys Ride or Die Bad Boys for Life Bad Boys *tbh the only reason part 3 isn't 2nd place is because I'm still sad about the captain being killed off 😢*
@SeanChandlerTalksAbout me and my dad and my buddy David went and saw ride or die tonight and I will say honestly the first few minutes, I thought to myself “hmmm……I’m not sure about this.” SPOILER ALERT!!!!! For those of you who are looking forward to Bad Boys Ride or Die and have yet to see it, don’t read any further as I am about to discuss some of my favorite moments below. Don’t get me wrong the opening had it’s moments however, where it really kicked into high gear for me and my buddy David was when, Marcus is on top of the skyscraper and started his whole “spiritual journey” type deal, and the whole “I can’t die, it’s not my time!” gag. I actually thought that was a hilarious contrast to the character we got in the first 3 films and I thought he contrasted really well with Will Smith’s Mike Lowry in particular because, it felt like a really cocky/over the top version of Mike in the first couple of films especially and I’m sure Bad Boys fans can see where I’m coming from. I also thought it was kind of cool to see Ioan Gruffudd back in a film again as I don’t recall seeing him in anything since the awful fantastic 4 films he was in as Mr. Fantastic. I had my suspicions that he was one of the “rats in the walls” that Captain Howard talked about posthumously on video but it was really obvious the moment he was on the elevator with Rita and all of a sudden he loses it and brutally attacks her and the AMMO team at least those who are in this movie, had to save her. My first thought at that sequence was kind of an eye roll because I thought “how on earth could you attack and risk losing a relationship with a girl that hot like Rita I mean really?” I do think the final action sequence was much more fun then the previous film though, and Armando had a nice hero moment which to me was fantastic
Bad Boys was a hit action film over a year before Independence Day. Bad Boys made him a movie star. Independence Day and Men In Black made him a megastar. Bad Boys was a KEY piece in his launch from rapper/sitcom star to leading man.
Here’s my ranking: 1. Bad Boys for Life (2020) 2. Bad Boys: Ride or Die (2024) 3. Bad Boys (1995) 4. Bad Boys II (2003) I always prefer the first one over the second because of the humor and life swap of Mike and Marcus. The second may be better in terms of action, but the story is far more interesting to me. The second one is just full of Bay-hem (which I enjoy in small doses lol) I think I just prefer this new era and how mature they are.
4: Bad boys II: a big excessive action movie with great action and great comedy but maybe gets too excessive at times and the plot is very thin 3: bad boys: after seeing bad boys 4 twice I decided to put this at 3rd but this is one of my favorite action movies and one of my favorite buddy cop movies but the plot is not super memorable 2: bad boys ride or die: a great action comedy with my favorite action in the franchise the best side characters in the franchise and you actually care about the story 1: bad boys for life: has all the humor and chemistry and fun action of this Franchise but also has emotion to it
@SeanChandlerTalksAbout I just saw Bad Boys Ride or Die today with my buddy David and my dad at the local AMC theater and I must say, I think Reggie stole the show for me, I kept hearing before I saw it that he had a sequence that was going to steal the show for people and he most definitely did that for me. I honestly thought people were being facetious about him stealing the show in his scene but, he definitely did, he reminded me of a black Rambo in that sequence and not saying that to be offensive, I’m just saying that’s what he reminded me of just wiping out all the bad guys in Mike’s house like they were nothing
Same. My theater nearly gave reggie a standing ovation after his scene
Same
Sure
Would hate that when people speak during a film cheer and chant worse thing ever I go to watch a film not hear other people
1. Bad Boys II
2. Bad Boys Rid or Die

That’s my list ❤

2. Bad boys ride or die (just)
3. Bad Boys for life (not far behind)
4. Bad Boys
Man bad boys 1 is still the best one.
Bad Boys 4 Life last is insane
@@mingw2304 I might have to revisit that one. It may be due to the high expectations I had, after such a long wait.
Without Bad Boys 2 , I don’t think Hot Fuzz would have been made . So it’s my number 1 . Haha
Fair enough. See also Evil Dead and Cabin in the Woods.
Hot fuzz was a great movie and it is funny how it was influenced by bad boys 2 since that one got negative reviews the makers should have made it be influenced in bad boys 1995 since that one earned better critic reviews than the 2003 sequal.
The fact that the first Bad Boys has a lower budget is why it impresses me more than the second one. It was able to be big and exciting with a smaller budget.
Facts
The original is easily my favourite! It's one of the movies I've seen most in my life. It blends the action and the comedy perfectly
And it showcased martins character the best imo
I really wish people didn’t mention “Reggie’s arch”. A great part is that it’s a complete surprise. Knowing something happens takes away from the moment.
This is a ranking and I feel there's a certain expectation that it's for people who have seen all 4 films.

It's called SPOILERS FOR A REASON 😡
I'm sorry.
I dont get why people focus on villians in a bad boys movie, the draw is will and Martin, and action, and bb3 lacked in the action department, killing off the captain was dumb, bb3 was easily the worse one
Yeah will nearly died coz he’s older but in the first bad boys Will kicks everyone’s ass
@@FrancisTurner-z6zyou haven’t seen the third movie by now??
That scene with Reggie was awesome !!! He was a Badass the whole time and noone knew it
Man, the good reviews for the movie really made me happy. Hope it also does well in box office.

Perfect list imo man
Reggie = GOAT ps: if u watched the new one you'll know what im saying
So watching the new one last night, I felt like I needed to see the previous one. So many major plot points were carried over from the last one.
Saw 4 last night, I’d go:
4. Bad Boys 7.5/10
3. Bad Boys II 8/10
2. Bad Boys Ride or Die 8/10
1. Bad Boys For Life 8/10
Love these movies, I always go back to them, this and Rush Hour are my top tier buddy cop films 😂

You should make a ranking of your favorite buddy cop franchises
This new Bad Boys was one of the funnest theater experiences I've had this year. Seeing it in a packed theater is definitely the best way to experience it. Shit was funny as hell. Martin Lawrence steals the movie
It’s a shame that you didn’t mention the directors. Their names are Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, and they are extremely talented. They come from Belgium, and we are sure to hear more from them in the future.
First time we agree on a list sean!
🔥🔥🔥
Finally!

My ranking 1) Bad Boys 4 Ride or Die 2) Bad Boys 2 3) Bad Boys 4) Bad Boys 4 Life . This was another good movie ranking and breakdown Sean. ❤❤❤❤
This list slaps 👋
I'm not gonna lie armando might be my new favorite character in this franchise his character development is one of the best ever
I haven’t seen any of the Bad Boys movies. I need to, just haven’t gotten around to seeing any of them.
I cant decide if 3 or 4 was better
Three shock value of the story line was 🔥
The 1995 original should be in the first place bay movie had emotion and wit it was more interesting than the sequals.
Totally agree. It's become very underrated.
That can’t be and there weren’t enough reviews on rotten tomatoes yet more can appear ones that were originally written back in the day and critics have got to have given it mostly positive reviews
The 2 new Bad Boys movies from the 2020s doesn't do their name "BAD" Boys justice! Bad Boys was not just supposed to be a action buddy comedy movie.

4 bad boys 3 bad boys 2 2 bad boys ride or die 1 bad boys for life I agree with everything you said about the films.
Great ranking! I love all the Bad Boys films. The Bad Boys Quadrilogy joins Lethal Weapon. For me:
1. Bad Boys For Life
2. Bad Boys
3. Bad Boys II
4. Bad Boys: Ride or Die
Don't insult Lethal Weapon. Only first Bad Boys is great. Later is nor Fat Boys.
Great Video Sean! Here's My Ranking:
1. Bad Boys II
2. Bad Boys
3. Bad Boys For Life
4. Bad Boys: Ride Or Die
I put bad boys 2 as my favorite. Like karate kid part 3 and roadhouse it’s was of the most ridiculous over the top entertainment movies ever and I love it
8:40 Bad Boys 4...
Me: Huh? Bad Boys 4?
Sean: ...Life
1,2,3,4 is the correct ranking. 2/3 can be interchanged
I didn't really have any interest in BB3 or 4 - however after hearing the great reviews - I think I will catch up on both. Thanks for all you do Sean🇨🇦
3 is disaster movie for kids.
They are all good/fun films. No “bad”
Ones. But my preference..
4. Bad Boys - fun kickoff for the franchise
3. Ride or Die -enjoyed it, but just didn’t land as well with me for some reason.
2. For Life- Liked that it took a bit more serious tone, but still had the good action and comedy.
1. Bad boys 2- over the top epic action with comedy that landed throughout the entire movie. A guilty pleasure.
There isn’t a bad, bad boys movie but saw this this week and I think it’s the best one c
My rankings
1. Tie between 1 & 2
3. Bad Boys ride or Die
4. Bad boys for life
But I like them all
watching the new one on Friday. But so far I like bad boys 2 best
The throwing cars car chase.
The video store scene where Martin and Will's private conversation is shown in the entire store
The Woosah
The Reggie scene
Mike on ecstacy at the captain's house scene
The throwing dead bodies car chase
The rats scene
The battle in Cuba
The gun fight with the Haitians with the spinning camera
No other movie in the franchise can match this movie scene for scene and no other one is funnier. Definitely Bas Boys 2 is the best one
Bad boys 2 is an all time classic
My Ranking
#4: Bad Boys Ride or Die
#3: Bad Boys
#2: Bad Boys For Life
#1: Bad Boys 2.
I'm with you on this, I really enjoyed alp of these movies
Last bad boys 2 then bad boys then for life then ride or die
2 is the best one stop
@EazyRocko that your opinion But title to our opinions
This is really close for me. Too close to really matter, but:
4- Bad Boys 2 (longer than it needed to be
3- Bad Boys 4 Life (not a fan of how they [kinda]retconned Mike & Marcus’ friendship/partnership to give Mike a kid.
2- Bad Boys: Ride Or Die (really enjoyed it, maybe more than I thought I would)
1- Bad Boys (This is one of my all time favorites. A very flawed film, but the immediate chemistry of 2 sitcom stars with a first time director to make my favorite movie of all the 1990’s is legendary…to me).
1. Bad Boys II (A)
2. Bad Boys For Life (B+)
3. Bad Boys (B+)
4. Bad Boys: Ride or Die (B+)
Lets be honest we dont go into these movies for depth. We go into the for the fun. And neither film tops the 2nd film in that level
I agree with your #1.
Not a bad movie out of the 4. Ride or die might be my favorite. Need to watch them all again to be sure
At first I was going to say that Bad Boys II was the best film in the series, but this man has made me change my mind.
His order of films is correct! Although Bad Boys II has the best action and some really good comedy, there was very little storyline outside of Marcus sister. The villian was just some random drug dealer who wasn't even that powerful.
Yes!
Two is certainly iconic. But light on story.
They are all good in my opinion but that second one created by Michael Bay (Bad Boys II) is just unmatched. From the action N it’s humor. But the age Mike and Marcus are at everything seems right with the last two made by them. I don’t expect them to be killing ppl like crazy at that age anyways. But in the last two we surely got to dive into their lives a little more.
1.) Bad Boys II (Will Smith made this one n gave it some life with action n Martins (Marcus) personality gave it that edge it needed with his antics n humor
2.)bad boys 4… I like how Marcus was more carefree n loose in this one
3.)Bad Boys. Martins humor brought the charm to this one
4.) Bad boys 3 it was good but Marcus grew up with Mike it said that in the first and second movie why wouldn’t Marcus know of Mike going undercover for Captain Howard when he was younger but still a great movie in itself.
I hope they Make a 5th n last one n if possible bring back Michael Bay n see what he can create with these two Marcus n Mike to close it out.
For my taste, I'd say...1, 4, 2, 3.
To be fair, I've only watched the 3rd one once. So, maybe it would change. Either way, the original has always been my favorite one. But, I enjoy them all.

@SeanChandlerTalksAbout me and my dad and my buddy David went and saw ride or die tonight and I will say honestly the first few minutes, I thought to myself “hmmm……I’m not sure about this.”
SPOILER ALERT!!!!! For those of you who are looking forward to Bad Boys Ride or Die and have yet to see it, don’t read any further as I am about to discuss some of my favorite moments below.
Don’t get me wrong the opening had it’s moments however, where it really kicked into high gear for me and my buddy David was when, Marcus is on top of the skyscraper and started his whole “spiritual journey” type deal, and the whole “I can’t die, it’s not my time!” gag.
I actually thought that was a hilarious contrast to the character we got in the first 3 films and I thought he contrasted really well with Will Smith’s Mike Lowry in particular because, it felt like a really cocky/over the top version of Mike in the first couple of films especially and I’m sure Bad Boys fans can see where I’m coming from.
I also thought it was kind of cool to see Ioan Gruffudd back in a film again as I don’t recall seeing him in anything since the awful fantastic 4 films he was in as Mr. Fantastic.
I had my suspicions that he was one of the “rats in the walls” that Captain Howard talked about posthumously on video but it was really obvious the moment he was on the elevator with Rita and all of a sudden he loses it and brutally attacks her and the AMMO team at least those who are in this movie, had to save her.
My first thought at that sequence was kind of an eye roll because I thought “how on earth could you attack and risk losing a relationship with a girl that hot like Rita I mean really?”
I do think the final action sequence was much more fun then the previous film though, and Armando had a nice hero moment which to me was fantastic
Will Smith break out action thing was Independence Day
Bad Boys was a hit action film over a year before Independence Day. Bad Boys made him a movie star. Independence Day and Men In Black made him a megastar.
Bad Boys was a KEY piece in his launch from rapper/sitcom star to leading man.

1. Bad Boys for Life (2020)
2. Bad Boys: Ride or Die (2024)
3. Bad Boys (1995)
4. Bad Boys II (2003)
I always prefer the first one over the second because of the humor and life swap of Mike and Marcus. The second may be better in terms of action, but the story is far more interesting to me. The second one is just full of Bay-hem (which I enjoy in small doses lol)
I think I just prefer this new era and how mature they are.
1. Bad boys 2
2 Bad boys 3
3. Bad boys 1
4. Bad boys 4
4: Bad boys II: a big excessive action movie with great action and great comedy but maybe gets too excessive at times and the plot is very thin
3: bad boys: after seeing bad boys 4 twice I decided to put this at 3rd but this is one of my favorite action movies and one of my favorite buddy cop movies but the plot is not super memorable
2: bad boys ride or die: a great action comedy with my favorite action in the franchise the best side characters in the franchise and you actually care about the story
1: bad boys for life: has all the humor and chemistry and fun action of this Franchise but also has emotion to it
Keep in mind, I love all these films.

But let’s be honest all these movies kick ass
@SeanChandlerTalksAbout I just saw Bad Boys Ride or Die today with my buddy David and my dad at the local AMC theater and I must say, I think Reggie stole the show for me, I kept hearing before I saw it that he had a sequence that was going to steal the show for people and he most definitely did that for me.
I honestly thought people were being facetious about him stealing the show in his scene but, he definitely did, he reminded me of a black Rambo in that sequence and not saying that to be offensive, I’m just saying that’s what he reminded me of just wiping out all the bad guys in Mike’s house like they were nothing
