Trivia
According to Martin Lawrence, Will Smith and he had to rewatch "Bad Boys" 1 and 2 multiple times everyday in order to get their characters back on track, since it's been so long after the second sequel.

Goofs
The police drone used is an off-the-shelf DJI Mavic Pro, available to consumers.

It is incredibly loud, and would have given away its position to the bad guys long before it was able to spy on them.

Quotes
Marcus: I'mma penetrate this man's soul wit my heart.
Mike: What?

Crazy credits
At the end, the movie fades and it shows a title card Bad Boys For Life. Then there is a brief scene of Mike visiting his son in prison before the actual credits role.

A weak watered-down version of a Bad Boys movie

This was a disappointing movie all around. The action, jokes, and even chemistry between Martin and Will felt forced as if they were going through the motions. The director seemed like he was trying to be Michael Bay but couldn't quite make it. Marcus was even more of a vagina (censored it) than usual and gets less action than ever before. The ride together mantra that seems constantly repeated throughout the film made it feel like I was watching a boring version of a Fast and Furious movie. Make no mistake I love the Bad Boys franchise. But this film is a weak watered-down version of Bad Boys. If they do make a part 4 which they are alluding to I certainly hope they make it better than this one.
