Favorite Movie
My favorite work of art probably has a very little role, if any, in changing society, but I still love it. One of my favorite movies is Bad Boys II with Will Smith and Martin Lawrence. I can watch this movie over and over again. I actually know a few lines. Bad Boys II was definitely a sequel that lived up to the first movie. Some people, including myself, think it was actually better than the the first Bad Boys. I am a big fan of action and comedy movies, and Bad Boys II mixes both genres. With people like Will Smith, who plays Mike, and Martin Lawrence, who plays Marcus, one can assume that the outcome will be hilarious. Even though I have seen this movie numerous times, it still makes me laugh every time. The plot line seems like it should be serious, but something always happens to change it. Even in the beginning where Mike and Marcus are surrounded by a group of Ku Klux Klan members, the writers still bring in a touch of humor. There are a lot of explosions and chase scenes and a lot of parts that are just there for a good laugh. One of my favorite scenes is when a guy named Reggie comes to take Marcus' daughter out. Marcus and Mike do their very best to scare him into not trying anything with Marcus' daughter Megan. Marcus plays the crazy father while Mike is the crazy, questionably gay godfather that just got out of jail. By the time Megan gets to the door, Reggie looks like he just wants to go home. I think Marcus and Mike did their job. The critics did not give this movie a great rating, but then again, I never agree with the critics. I have seen ratings from normal viewers as high as 9.4 out of 10. I agree with that rating. If I want to be entertained and have a good laugh, I can always count on Bad Boys II.
