‘Absolutely incredible’ action movie on Netflix shoots up the charts | Films | Entertainment

Netflix has recently introduced a thrillingly captivating action movie sequel from the 2020s that has rapidly climbed the platform’s film charts.

The pulse-pounding fourth entry in one of cinema’s most legendary franchises is presently positioned at number four in the UK, surpassing titles such as War Machine and Borderlands.

Having reprised their cherished characters in 2020’s Bad Boys For Life, Will Smith and Martin Lawrence return once more as detectives Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett for another high-octane escapade through the streets of Miami, Florida.

Following his death, Mike and Marcus’ captain Conrad Howard (played by Joe Pantoliano) is posthumously connected to a cartel implicated in a substantial money laundering operation.

Also featuring Vanessa Hudgens (The Princess Switch) and Alexander Ludwig (Vikings) reprising their roles from the third film, alongside late Grey’s Anatomy star Eric Dane as the villainous James McGrath and Pluribus star Rhea Seehorn as Captain Howard’s vengeful daughter Judy, Bad Boys: Ride or Die is essential viewing for adrenaline enthusiasts this week.

Audiences have extensively commended the film’s breathtaking action sequences, directed by Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, as amongst the finest action of the 2020s thus far. One glowing five-star review on Letterboxd enthused: “The action is actually insane in this. I love the camera shots of Marcus passing the gun to Mike and the movie turns into a first person shooter game for a minute. I absolutely loved that scene.

“I believe this is the most crazy Bad Boys yet especially that end battle shootout.”

“This was absolutely incredible!” another viewer effused. “OMG the fun I had with this movie, The absolute adrenaline I got from this and HOLY S*** the amount of Aura that courses through my veins when that Bad Boys Theme plays.

“Easily the most fun I’ve had with a movie this year! After 4 entries, Bad Boys is still going stronger than ever.”

Another fan dubbed Bad Boys 4 as the “best action movie of 2024” in a perfect 10/10 review on IMDb.
