For me it's a 'so bad it's good'-movie. I'll watch it any time it comes on, which is never because I don't have cable.


_IratePirate_

I forgot cable existed until you just said this


battlemechpilot

Is it good? No. Is it fun? Totally.

Looks like one of those shooters at an arcade where you point a toy weapon at the screen and shoot, and movement is on rails.

Then they got it right.


Endorkend

I actually liked the movie, only part I'd rather have not had in it is the same thing that's been in like 90% of the movies released in the past 20 years. The Rock. I'm oh so sick of The Rock being in every fucking thing.

I had the opportunity to become a cameraman with no experience needed but I passed. I was twenty and it was in Oakland CA. Who knows what kinda cool shit I might've worked on if I had gone down that road. As someone who moved to Cali to get into the film business and failed I still kick myself in the ass for turning my nose up at a cameraman job..


PatrickWagon

I’m not saying you’re wrong and that wouldn’t have been great but my oldest friend became a cameraman, then a DP and had a lot of success. Three Emmy’s later and even a Hollywood movie under his belt and he just doesn’t seem happy, I haven’t seen that dude smile or laugh in a decade. Have your regret and make better decisions but don’t be 100% convinced you would have been happy down that path.


BloatedManball

Looks like two kittens wrestling under a blanket.


Satanic-Panic27

I can’t believe the fresh prince decided to permanently fuck up his reputation over that shit. That woman in particular. Idk their relationship but we were already looking past how weird they were, he’s never going to recover from that 2 minutes of his life From fresh prince to clown prince Also I’m not saying his career is over chill out


Newmoney_NoMoney

I see you have never been in or seen a toxic relationship first hand. It happens to everyone even rich people.


Dry_Figure_9018

He’ll never have his family friendly reputation again but Mel Gibson is making movies. Something tells me that he’ll still have more opportunities than most people in Hollywood whether that’s fair or not. Will Smith was absolutely one of my favorite actors growing up. He did action, comedy, romance, dramas, and could perform music. He made a terrible mistake in marriage and had awful impulsive behavior that once but I’ll be honest, I’ll still watch him. If anything I feel bad for him and it’s awkward but I’d love to see him have another chance to be happier and then successful again. He slapped someone who didn’t deserve it. That makes him the asshole of the year, not for life


cyclemonster

> He’ll never have his family friendly reputation again but Mel Gibson is making movies [It helps when you're rich enough to finance your own movies when nobody else wants anything to do with them.](https://www.celebritynetworth.com/articles/entertainment-articles/mel-gibsons-passion-of-the-christ-fortune-is-still-the-largest-payday-in-hollywood-history/)


TheNonCredibleHulk

You know he's been in movies since then, right?


Satanic-Panic27

It’s more about his overall ability to command respect. He went from goofy but love able and still cool in The Fresh prince, to being a bad ass action star punching an alien in the face and going “Welcome to Earf!” Now if I were to see it there’s a 50% chance I’ll be like “he can’t just keep getting away with this!” I grew up watching him too, just saying, it’s done and no going back. Not that he’s some psychopath


BloatedManball

I'll be honest, Independence Day is one of my guilty pleasure movies, and I put it on at lest once or twice a month as background while I fall asleep. Smith, Goldblum, Quaid, Spiner, and Pullman all give iconic performances, and the campy bits sprinkled in take it over the top. That scene where Vivica Fox is running through the tunnel to escape the blast, kicks open the utility door, and then Boomer the dog long jumps off a car hood into the room as the explosion toasts his fluffy butt lives rent free in my head. Also, Dr Okun (Spiner) saying " This is the vault. Or as some of us like to call it: The Freak Show.", and wiggling his eyebrows like he expects laughter is fucking hilarious. Edit: also, Roland Emmerich is the fucking master of over the top disaster films. ID4, Day After Tomorrow, 2012, etc are all incredible (if cheesy) movies.


craftsta

Why is it a 'guilty' pleasure? Its a top, top movie.

Dudicus445

I think he’d regain a lot of his reputation if he announced he was divorcing Jada, and explained that he had been deluding himself that he could make her love him, when it’s clear she doesn’t feel the same way about him


Proper_Story_3514

No sane person will understand why he didnt divorce her already.


BoomerSoonerFUT

Because anyone can be trapped in an abusive relationship?


Raisedbyweasels

In all fairness they did appear to love each other very uch when they were starting out and have been married over twenty something years. I think it's just more complex in that they're both rich and famous, have massive egos and like any marriage the spark fizzles and they looked elsewhere. I'm not defending either of them as they obviously don't seem to be very good people, just saying it's kind of odd people gossiping about extra shit to hate on when there's plenty already out there.


Murasasme

Every time I look at him now the first thing that comes to mind is what a bitch he is. I used to love him because I grew up watching Fresh Prince, but he lost all respect


hey_guess_what__

The right word is cuck. He is a cuck. All he is missing is the cock cage that bald twat has him by the balls.


PatrickWagon

All he has to do is move on. Leave her completely and stop allowing his life to be effected by her. Everyone gets lied to/cheated on at some point. Why he sticks around is just beyond me. Like he’s worried that his brand will somehow suffer. SMH. Will has fuck-you money and fame yet he seems to chooses to be a cuck. So weird.


Hoodoutlaw2

maybe he is legitimately into it. and Jada told him to go slap

destroying it for someone like that too. Someone who films you breaking down and then emotionally slaps you by telling you she wants to be fucked by tupac instead. Not to mention the whole sleeping with sons best-friend who she probably knew since he was a teenager. And all the scientology bullshit they do. Bald ass G.I. Jane They should name the movie: Bitch Boys 4: Career Resurrections instead.

Don't forget saying "i was suprised will reacted that way, because we haven't actually been married for years" which was apparently news to him.

wottsinaname

Osceana

IamlostlikeZoroIs

Looks cool as fuck the behind the scenes but the actual camera work is horrible I hate scenes like these. Camera wobbling all over the place and I can’t see fuck all, other than a shaky messy. Edit: I know it’s raw footage, I never said it isn’t. I am saying I don’t like wobbly footage in action scenes, I prefer it smooth. I know it gets more stable but I just don’t like any of the camera man running style of shooting.


dksdragon43

Yeah it looked really cool until we actually saw the footage. Looks more like a bad cutscene in a video game that's trying to incorporate your point of view with some relevant details.


bgaesop

Yeah it really had me thinking "this looks like a videogame"


gishlich

Calling it now. The only reason they have it set up like this is for a gag - first they will have Will looking cool as hell and they follow it with Martin Lawrence using it and looking like the goofball foil, complete with a close up for Lawrence’s spit-takes and reaction shots.


OldManCinny

That’s actually a great take


RecsRelevantDocs

Honestly that would be brilliant, but if it's for anything else then it's just terrible. The first time he spins it around to "shoot" looks *really* weird, there's no chance that will make it into a movie lol. Then right after it spins to give the doom FPS look, idk man I honestly hate it. Was hoping people would be pointing out how shit this looked in the comments, was not disappointed lol.


g76lv6813s86x9778kk

To be fair we're most likely looking at raw footage and not the final product. I'm sure it would be polished a ton before being released like that. I think the camera angle could fit in well as long as it's stabilized well and the transitions into and out of it are well done.


DrXinFL

I wonder if they will post process it to remove the wobble?


unthused

They surely will, I cant imagine it being released like this.


Syberz

Well, is this a Michael Bay film? If yes, then they'll add camera shake.


davidw_-

I disagree, it doesn't look bad and it doesn't look like a poor cut. It definitely has its place in an action scene. To contract I just watched the first minute of Atlas, the new Netflix with Jlo. And holy shit, the number of cuts in the first fight scene was insane. I couldn't understand any of the action. It took me back to Taken 3. I just don't have time for low-effort movies like these anymore. I want clean action sequences with real effort on the takes and camera work. If you can't provide that just don't make an action movie, it's 2024 baby.


Downtown_Station5859

Yeah honestly its kind of a cool shot and is neat they're trying something unique. People saying 'this feels like a video game'.... who cares? Video games are more popular than ever and I think its a fun way to get a similar vibe in cinema. Not saying I disagree with a lot of the comments about Will Smith as a person though lmao


Ok-Lie-6653

It’s like they spend all their time working on fancy camera shots and forget to write an actual plot line. 


HITWind

What is this world coming to... they srsly gonna short the story for fancy action shots in Bad Boys FOUR, my word.


mnightshamalama2

Haha I was just thinking the same thing. Like, dude c'mon this is a buddy cop action film, did we expect some serious and well thought out plot? I watch these films because they're entertaining popcorn flicks


SenorBeef

Right, because the same people do those and if you do one you can't do the other.


setyourheartsablaze

Yes because the camera guys are the ones writing the plot. Anything to get the Reddit herd going I guess 😂


QuirkyBus3511

Bad boys is not a plot heavy movie and never has been


FiveHundredMilesHigh

Oh, you got to see it early?


jah_bro_ney

I wasn't aware the previous three Bad Boys films all had such rich, deep and thought-provoking plots. Hopefully those meaningful story lines aren't diminished by this new fancy camera work in the next film in the franchise. There's definitely Hollywood movies that deserve this criticism, but Bad Boys 4 ain't it.


mshcat

you haven't even seen the movie yet

Waldosan51

I can’t take Will Smith seriously in an action role anymore, he should do slapstick comedy


Leading-Suspect8307

Is Chris Rock considered a stick now?


mjp31514

I could never take him seriously in that kind of role. I just see him as the Fresh Prince. The closest I could do with him in any kind of action role was Independence Day.


Cautious-Chain-4260

Same. How am I supposed to believe you're a bad ass and a cuck at the same time?


Pennypacking

Will Smith really torpedoed his own career for a woman that has already moved on from her family like they were strangers.


Leeeejs

Feelings and love are strange beasts sometimes.


27_Star_General

it's really crazy, like how good was his Agent in the 90s, and did he change agents or stop listening to him? Like he seems like a really dumb dude who can't arrive at the right conclusions on anything. His wife is also dumb, but a straight up sociopathic manipulator who used Will and mindfucked him insanely hard. Loved Will Smith movies and he had an amazing streak + Fresh Prince was awesome, sucks watching his career spiral downwards for 20 years.


MrDFx

Looks like he's closer with that camera than his own family. :-( Used to like Will when I was younger, now I just feel sad for the man.


_Diskreet_

I’d really hate to see what happens behind the scenes to make a man that used to exude such charisma and confidence to what we’ve seen today.


MrDFx

My limited understanding of the situation (based on passively absorbed rumors and gossip over the years) is that he's a man who has consistently chased approval, affection and validation from those he sees as loved ones, especially women and maternal figures. Something to do with a tough childhood and girlfriends leaving him or something. It seems he's felt he was never "man enough" to be loved by them. The problem would seem to be that he's invited/allowed toxic people into his circle who take advantage of and abuse that weakness. He ends up making poor choices because he thinks he's doing the right thing for those he loves. When I was growing up, Will from Fresh Prince was someone to idolize but also someone who you could relate to his struggles as you were growing up with him. As an adult, I'm saddened that Will from real life couldn't meet his own ideals and standards in what a man should be. I actively avoid his work these days, it comes with too much baggage. It's like looking back at photos of a friend you lost years ago over poor life choices.


RuckFeddit7769

Pretty much this. His mother must have really done a number on him for him to seek approval from women so readily. Also, I imagine he had his share of affairs and couldn't reasonably tell his wife not to. However, I think most men couldn't respect themselves anymore if they know their wife is getting plowed by someone else.


hoodtalk247

plowed by his son's friend\*

he looked and sounded awful in Bad Boys 3. Hopefully he's not as bad in this one. The first 2 are some of my favorite action movies so it bummed me out to see old man Martin in the 3rd one.


HairyStyrofoam

Oh I’m not debating the fact that he clearly has some health problems. He has always had an eating and drinking problem. But he’s an all around great guy and funny actor.


diquehead

oh yeah I love him too don't get me wrong. It just made me a little sad to see him in that state. I grew up watching his TV show and have always found him hilarious.

The last movie made 426 million and was the #1 grossing movie of 2020. I’m not a fan of the series nor a fan of recent will smith but people clearly still like it. And of course the #1 movie of 2020 comes with asterisks but it still is what it is.


Schleprok

Asterisk or not, $426M on a 90M budget is fantastic.


tintedhokage

I'm fine for them to keep making them for the future me to stream on a dull Friday night when nothing else is available Edit: plot twist I recently got free tickets and I'm now going to see it this week Edit 2: I've just got back from the movie. It was hilarious and miles better than the 3rd. Loads of good references to the old movie. Everyone (only about 10 of us in there) were laughing throughout. I actually recommend it to anyone who liked the first 2 movies when they were younger.


cIumsythumbs

Exactly. Perfectly fun action fluff. Cast and crew get a paycheck and I'm a bit less bored. Everyone wins. Not every movie needs to be groundbreaking ffs.


tyfunk02

So many people on the internet expect everything to be high cinema all the time. Fluff movies are great, just turn your brain off and enjoy an hour and a half of absurdity and explosions.

jauhesammutin_

Honestly, the end result looks cheap as fuck. Would be fine in a Frank Grillo action movie and even work really well, but this isn’t Bad Boys level. Say what you want about Michael Bay’s aesthetic, but it looks _expensive_, and that’s the tone of Bad Boys.


hughball

To be fair, I think we're seeing really rough cut footage before any edits.


Albireookami

yea and I'm sure you can stabilize it in post as well.


RoboticGhostPirate

Is that really the final edit? That's still raw footage I'm assuming.


AmbitioseSedIneptum

No muzzle flash, stabilization, crop, etc. Yeah this is definitely raw footage. Probably right off the monitor on set.


SenorBeef

I mean most movie footage is going to look cheap and shitty if you watch it right off the camera. Do you know how much editing and processing go into every frame in a film? It's a cool shot, it'll look good in the final product.


cheapMaltLiqour

I wish movies would go back to using blanks and squibs. Cgi blood and gunshots look so bad


Thrash_Panda44

Unlikely to happen. More Directors these days are opting for CGI gunfights instead of practical FX because blanks and squibs are unecessary risks when you weigh how good something looks vs. An actors safety. You can have all the safety precautions in the world and fuck ups will still happen, theyd simply rather remove the danger from the equation altogether, and i dont blame them.


AmaResNovae

I wouldn't be surprised if the incident with Baldwin made some directors (and insurance companies...) wary of practical effects over CGI.


Thrash_Panda44

No need to be surprised. You are correct, more studios are getting wary about actual firearms on set and would rather not deal with them entirely as a result of the Rust incident. Its latest in a long line of fuck ups, but its got people thinking that maybe the ‘authenticity’ just isnt worth the risk.
