City of Dis
This is my disclaimer/springboard for this storyline in every review: I'm going to keep this review based on every category to give everyone an idea because the hilarity of the movie and series speaks for itself. You watch it when you're bored. If you're above the age of 25 you look forward to either having these brats as your children or wanting to slap them upside the head for missing school. Between the ages of 18-25, you're debating of whether to date them long-term b/c their hot (minus bad acting) or if they attend school and have a major. If you're under that age group, you just think their cute and know your parents would NEVER let you near them.
Story: Same as all the other Bad Boys story, one of Bromances. I like this one a bit more because it does speak on, just like another bad boys film- how being in a gang is not all sweetness and flowers. There are consequences for their actions. I think a lot of the times when you see this film and some of the other violent "Yankee" movies - there is this glorification w/o payback. However, there is a risk of going to prison. Gangs are not easy to get out of with your life in tact there are gangs that eat up other gangs. Within the comedy, you can tell the writers were trying to add some depth.
Acting/Cast: The entire cast needs acting lessons. The boys however get a pass because they're adorable. Note I said "adorable", I'm on the older side, 37, and they remind me of my students. Violent little punks sometimes, but overall good kids. Hence, I get their roles even if they are MEN playing the roles. As for the girls...ugh the lead female. I called her FANG - Face. Ugh, I just couldn't. Her teach were killing me.
Music: Not relevant enough for me to care. The slow motion was cool.
Rewatch: I would rewatch this once every 6 months or when I'm sick. If you're sick, this is an ultimate pick-me up. Just a nice, feel good film---then I'd watch the series.
Overall: Just a good movie followed with a good series. I really enjoyed both. Give it a chance.
