Wow this looks bad

After the first 20 reviews, Bad Boys For Life currently holds a 90% rating on RottenTomatoes.
Banter and bullets is the action-movie MO, and the duo at the center of it hardly seem to have to stretch to spread their bickering charm on thick
Decisively the best of the trio; it actually has a heart, or what passes for one in a gigantic, slam-bang industrial enterprise like this.
A retro affair tailor-made for those who adored the action movies of the 1990s
A fun, explosive, and even thoughtful action movie that updates Jerry Bruckheimer bombast for the modern age of multiplex cinema
While Bad Boys for Life has a completely asinine story, generic action, predictable plot beats, moronic dialogue and truly reprehensible politics, I still had a good time
By keeping its bombastic action but putting an emphasis on family, the 'Bad Boys' series manages to age gracefully rather than seeming like an embittered relic
Its mission, should you choose to accept it, is to make a jaded 2019 audience glad to see these guys again. The movie's not the point. The boys are the point.
Overall, Bad Boys for Life is probably a wash, but it ends so well that I now find myself not entirely opposed to the idea of a fourth Bad Boys entry. Whatcha gonna do?
The anticipated sequel punches hard, drives fast through stylish explosions, cracks sharper-than-expected jokes, and basically celebrates everything that worked about the first two Bad Boys movies
I was hoping for it, and it seems I was heard: "moronic dialogue and truly reprehensible politics" :-))

3 weeks ago, Bad Boys For Life was expected to open with $35 million on its first weekend. Now, it is on route for a $70 million opening weekend, which would be the 2nd biggest ever in January, behind only American Sniper. The budget of this 3rd Bad Boys installment is $90 million. No wonder Bad Boys 4 is already in development.

Then again, I watched Bad Boys for Life last night and had a smile on my face for 2 hours.
I've always said if there's a perfect series that can justify sequels, returning characters or feeling of retreads, it's The Matrix, where all it takes is another reboot of the system and we're back. I won't mind, it seems to be a fair mixture of new and returning players thus far. I couldn't be more excited.
And yes, Bad Boys For Life was a lot of fun. Didn't reach the heights of the second film and it was definitely missing that Bay flavor, but it was still a blast.
Directed by Andrew Dominik (The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford).
Also starring: Adrien Brody, Bobby Cannavale, Julianne Nicholson, and Scoot McNairy.

First image from Brandon Cronenberg's sci-fi thriller Possessor:
An agent works for a secretive organization, using brain-implant technology to drive other people to commit assassinations for high-paying clients.
Starring: Christopher Abbott, Sean Bean, and Jennifer Jason Leigh.
I´d say it didn´t reach the hights of the second one, but it found its own pace and groove very well enough. The way the film deals with the boys getting older was astonishingly smooth. I´m looking forward to watching it again.
Yes, the world of Matrix begs to be re-booted. But unfortunately that doesn´t go for the film franchise. I don´t feel worry inside me, we seem to experience a period where sequels work out amazingly well.

6 Underground was awful in every sense of the word. Just another garbage release from Netflix, one of many.
Excellent news and a night out for me and the missus.
As for the Spenser movie I do hope it a good one and there will be more on the way.
