i start watch hollywood movie 6 year back and watch some of the great classic and blockbuster of all time . be amaze and awestruck that how be hollywood capable of churn out such amazing stuff with such amazing consistency . but after see bad boy and a few other disappointing movie and i realize that hollywood too and wasn not perfect . come to the movie and the plot be an oft repeat one of two cop pair up and both different in persona ( infact diametrically opposite ) and and still great pal and one have a wife and kid and other be single and hot and the usual clichés . but that not all that be bad about the movie . and there be more the silly dialogue and lousy work by the lead pair and the female lead have no clue what to say or do and she often keep mumble and mutter in the background . above all and the scene be illogical and can not be attribute to be the action of sane people . martin lawrence do ok in his role and but maybe he could have do good if he hadn not try to fake that dialogue delivery style which look very irritating and totally lack in humor . comic timing and wisecrack have to be differentiate from silly mannerism and and this movie be a big example of that . will smith and be a little more subdued . but isn not able to emote much or come up with funny stuff . téa leoni have no role in the movie and she act in the craziest and most insensible way and invite trouble each time ( if it be real life and she would have be kill the first time she try to pull off those stupid stunt of hers ) and not to mention the male lead who too be guilty of this . the wife too be show a an irrational human be who would make unjustified demand on his apparently busy husband . the movie be about the most irrational and stupid people we be ever go to come across . they do all sort of crazy and suicidal thing at the silly pretext and dumb logic . i hope there be no people of such kind anywhere in the universe . about the director and he must realize that a movie can be comic even though it have intelligent people in it and everything doesn not have to be so dumb . besides and show african american in such clichéd role just tarnish their image . the only good thing about the movie be the action scene and and occasional good comedy . so and my advice be and if u have good thing to do in life and do not watch it . if u really have to watch a movie and then rent some old favorite rather than go for it . god save you .
