While action films are loved by the audience, ‘Bad Boys’ is one such universe that is possibly ignored in most of the lists. Directed by Michael Bay, the first two films were loved by the public, they were not praised by the critics. However, they turned out to be profitable projects in terms of box office collections.
The third film was confirmed a long time ago but budget issues and other problems led to numerous delays with the film being released in 2020. While the third film was also a commercial success, people have been eagerly waiting for the fourth installment despite Will Smith’s controversy related to the Oscars 2022 slapgate with Chris Rock.
