I will watch it some day. I don't think I'm going to theatres to see it though. I am going to see American Wedding on Tuesday though.

I don't think it looks too bad. I doubt i will be watching it in theatres though, doesn't look like it would be worth it. But i'll probably end up renting it some day.

Saw it. It was a pretty good flick, without any of the blatant acts of stupidity that most action movies seem to depend on.

I'd say it was worth seeing as a matinee, but don't go to a night showing.

Just saw it, not bad. Not too stupid, credible action. But yes, you will forget it after a week and never see it again.

Just saw it. Not that bad at all. Much of the action was believible and it didnt resemble many of the shitty action movies that frequent the theaters these days. oh, and it was by far LL cool J's best movie to date...but it didnt take much to beat Deep Blue Sea now did it.

How did it compare to Bad Boys II? (the only other new action movie that I've seen lately and enjoyed)

Ok. I saw this opening night and I have told random people in the streets never to see that pile of dog crap movie. It was a total pile of crap. I was so bored by the end i was playing games on my cell phone. What the hell is with the no blood whatsoever? I was angry with that. And the plot was predictable and stupid. The action sequences were boring as all hell. Michelle Rodriguez cant act. Was it made by the people who made The Fast and the Furious? Cuz i saw like 8 people from the original Fast and the Furious. LL Cool J actually did a better job than i thought he would, but he couldnt make the movie good.

-Ever-: This movie does not compare to Bad Boys II at all. Bad Boys II was good, this blew chunks.

I enjoyed it. It helps if you're old enough to have seen the TV series, because it's got a lot of the same feel to it.

Hondo, Street, Deacon, and T.J. are back for the movie, but Hondo underwent a race-change operation in the meantime. Samuel Jackson is much better than the original.

It's a fine summer action flick.

Go sit in the air conditioned theatre. See lots of gunplay and action. Walk out into the heat after it's over. Heat fries your brain and you don;t remember if it was good or not, just that there was air conditioning...

I saw it and it completely SUCKED! a waste of 6.50. For an action movie it started out with a lame typical action scene. It was slow, had too much talking, and not enough action. This movie isn't even rent worthy. They had a good idea just no story. Or any clue how to set it up. plus the directing was horrible, shots were messed up everywhere. It had to be the worst movie I paid to see this year. I should have watched American Wedding.

I definitely excited to see this movie. I'm a Colin Farrell fan and so far all his movies haven't been too shabby.

I just saw it last night. It wasn't bad, but the commercials for it lead to to think of how the story will progress. Don't go to see it based on the commercials.

I'd give it barely 7/10. It gets a 7 instead of 6 because of Samuel L. Jackson.
