Stylish and fast-paced, this movie (directed by Michael Bay) spawned two sequels but you can't beat the original. Starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, Bad Boys is everything a cop movie set in South Florida should be.

Marcus is eating a burger and fries in Mike's $105,000 car. Mike's not happy about it. Presumably because getting mayonnaise out of a leather interior is going to prove problematic.
Mike
Hey, man, what... what is this having a picnic sh*t in my car, man?
Marcus
Please man, I'm not getting my sex at home. Don't... don't deny me this.
Mike
What are you talking about? You sleep with a beautiful woman every night.
Marcus
I'm married. That's what married means. It means you sleep together but you can't get none.
Clip 2
It gets worse. Because Marcus also has a large soda and nowhere to put it. Because Porsche, apparently, decided that no cup holders were required.
Marcus
Hey, look, where... where... where's your cup holders?
Mike
I don't have one.
Marcus
What the f... what do you mean you don't have one? $80,000 for this car and you ain't got no damn cup holder?
Mike
It's $105,000 and this happens to be one of the fastest production cars on the planet. Zero to sixty in four seconds, baby. This is a limited edition.
Marcus
You damn right it's limited. No cup holder, no back seat, just a shiny d*ck with two chairs in it. I guess we just the balls dragging the fu*k along!
Clip 3
Marcus has committed the sin of dropping a french fry down the side of the passenger seat. And whilst he's trying to retrieve it, two guys try to car-jack them.
Marcus
Yeah, you ain't interested in the damn fry... you all up in that.
Robber
Get out of the car, man.
Mike
Sh*t.
Marcus
What the fu*k?!
Robber
Me and my team have had a big week... so just get the fu*k out of the car.
[The robber on the passenger side of the Porsche is... well, on the large side]
Marcus
Damn, what are you weighing? Three-fifty? I bet you a big Popeye Chicken eatin' mother-fu*ker, ain't you?
Mike
Hey, hey...
Robber
Get the fu*k out -
Marcus
I always got to get the big, thick mother-fu*kers.
Robber
Get out of the car NOW!
Clip 4
It's breakfast time at the Burnett residence and Uncle Mike has shown up. He's a hit with the kids but Theresa won't stand for his shenanigans.
Quincy
Uncle Mike, did you have a date last night?
Mike
Woooooo, did I?! Let me tell you, boy this girl was -
Theresa
Hey hey. Don't you go telling my son none of your sleazy sex stories.
Mike
Aw, no. I only tell your husband my sleazy sex stories.
Marcus
Hey.
Theresa
Well, I don't want him knowing about 'em either. Gives him ideas.
Marcus
Why are you putting me in this, man? I'm with my babies. Okay? Thank you.
Theresa
[Answering the phone]
Hello? No problem.
[She hands the receiver to MIKE]
Mike
Yeah, you're on the mic. with Mike. I... I think you mean to say, "get our asses down there please, Captain." Maybe not.
Clip 5
You've got to love a bit of casual racism. Just because Sanchez and Ruiz are Hispanic, it's assumed (albeit in jest) that they're responsible for the missing heroin.
Marcus
Where were ya'll last night, man?
Mike
Listen, why don't ya'll just have your cousins bring the sh*t back and we can all get some sleep, all right?
Sanchez
We were gonna do that, but you know what happened? We came up with a problem... your mama snorted up all the dope.
Captain
All right, you two get over there.
Clip 6
The architect for the police station's criminal property store lives in a very nice house in a predominantly white neighbourhood. Which Marcus and Mike have just rocked up to.
Mike
Hello?
Marcus
We're your new neighbours.
Mike
Don't be alarmed. We're negroes!
Marcus
No, man. There's too much bass in your voice. That'll scare white folks. You got to sound like them. We were wondering if we could borrow some brown sugar?
Clip 7
Mike is rich. He inherited a sh*t load of money from his family. He drives a nice car, wears nice clothes and has a nice apartment. But that doesn't mean he's playing at being a cop. Hell, no.
Mike
So I'm playing cop now?
Marcus
[Laughs]
Mike
This is a game. I'm just joking around, huh?
Marcus
You always wanted to be Starsky or Hutch.
Mike
You know what, man? I'm so sick of this bullsh*t. What... what, I'm supposed to apologise for my family leaving me money? All I ever wanted to be was a cop. I get up early and I take it to the max every day. I'm the first guy through the door and I'm always the last guy to leave the crime scene so you know what? Fu*k you and fu*k them and fu*k everybody who got a problem with Mike Lowry.
Marcus
I love you, man.
Mike
Fu*k you, Marcus.
Clip 8
These two guys are playing the "blame game" when a shoot-out goes somewhat awry. There's no love lost between them. Clearly!
Criminal #1
How do you miss 'em? Huh? You fat FU*K!
Criminal #2
Hey, watch your fu*kin' mouth will ya?
Criminal #1
Look, lose some weight and you would've caught 'em.
Criminal #2
I'd like to come over and squeeze your little fu*kin' head, you bastard!
Criminal #1
You're in trouble. NOW you're in fu*kin' trouble.
Criminal #2
Did you get the licence plate?
Criminal #1
Yeah, I got the fu*kin' plates.
Criminal #2
You c*ck-eyed fu*k!
Clip 9
After the night Mike's just had, I'm not surprised that he doesn't want to hear Marcus nagging him. In fact, Marcus is lucky he didn't get sucker-punched to be honest.
Mike
I got a dead madam, I got a concussion and I got a real bad headache.
Marcus
You got a headache? Well, let me tell you what I did last night. I had to sleep on my couch. I wake up this morning, I got a Power Ranger stuck up my ass. All right and while we're discussing my ass, I damn-near got it blown off. But guess what the good news is? I got a witness, huh? And let me tell you about this witness -
Mike
Marcus... Marcus... shhhhhhhhhhh!
Clip 10
Theresa isn't wild about the idea of her husband being away and she certainly isn't too keen on Mike providing protection for her and their family.
Marcus
Okay? Mike's going to stay here with you and the kids. Take care of ya'll. Just 'til I come back. That's all.
Theresa
I... who's gonna pick the kids up from daycare and all that stuff? Mike can't do it!
Marcus
Are you listenin' to me, baby? I said Mike -
Mike
You know, I read a book that could probably help ya'll. It was... I saw -
Marcus
Mike. Mike, please, man. Can you go down and have a coke and a smile? Please?
Mike
All right!
Clip 11
Marcus is pretending to be Mike. For Julie's sake. They're at Mike's apartment which is full of photos. Of Mike. Which is a bit weird under the circumstances.
Julie
Hey, Mike. Who's the guy in all the photographs?
Marcus
I, you know... sometimes I don't even look at my... my shelves. I forgot all the pictures was here. That's my partner. Yeah, that's my partner, Marcus Burnett.
Julie
Oh. I've never seen anything like this before.
Marcus
Well I can see how it may throw you a little bit. But you know what? It's a cop thing. Yeah, these pictures are up here for every time he saved my life and it's the same thing with him. You go to his place, it ain't nothin' but pictures of me, Mike Lowry, 'cos it's like a shrine. It's just... just a reminder.
Julie
Oh. 'Cos, I mean when I saw it, you know, it's like... the whole wall, I thought maybe they were, you know, pictures of your lover.
Marcus
Of who?
Julie
I thought, you know, I thought maybe you were gay.
Marcus
[Laughs]
That I was gay? No. No, no, no. No, baby.
Julie
I mean I didn't mean to offend you, you know? It's like... okay to be homosexual, Mike.. you know -
Marcus
No. You... you... you... you're not listening. It's not registering. Okay? Believe me. Did you sleep in the bed? You didn't feel the dents? Yeah, the dents come from all that. That's how I gets down. Okay?
Julie
Oh that's... that's sweet.
Marcus
[Incredulously]
Gay?!
Clip 12
Mike is on the phone to Theresa. Marcus is standing behind him. Which is when Mike decides to have a little fun at his friend's expense.
Mike
No, it'll be ten thirty, eleven o'clock right there... no, no, don't wait up. Don't wait up. I'll be all right.
[THERESA hangs up]
Mike
So, yeah... why don't you rent a movie or somethin'? You know... somethin' we can kick back to. So what you wearin'?
Marcus
MIKE... GIVE ME THE PHONE! GIVE ME THE PHONE. MIKE!
Mike
She hung up. She hung up a long time ago. I was playin'. I was playin'.
Marcus
No. Hello?
Mike
I was playin'!
Clip 13
A shopkeeper is about to make a big mistake. He thinks Mike and Marcus are up to no good. So he pulls his gun, thinking he's John Wayne. No. That's not going to play.
Shopkeeper
HEY, FREEZE... B**CH!
Mike
[Drawing his service pistol and aiming it at the shopkeeper]
You freeze... b**ch!
Shopkeeper
Oh... sh*t! I'm fu*ked.
Mike
Now, back up. Put the gun down. And get me a pack of tropical fruit Bubbilicious.
