A quick one this week. A solo report on Bad Boys For Life, a film that has done far better than expected and has already had its sequel green lit.
Will Smith and Martin Lawrence re-teaming as Mike and Marcus appears to have hit that magic formula (some might say not having Michael Bay direct helps).
Jonathan Roberts, seemingly in the throws of cabin fever gives his review – free of Joker rants (for once).
Thanks for listening.
