"This film has no direction or redeeming qualities other than being offensive, aimless, and having its young black female leads all dressed up in silly garb with no place to go. B.A.P.S: Beware of Asinine Picture that Stinks!!!"

"...yet another brainless and boisterous formula that’s sure to make one’s hair curl on their arms. Bad Boys II is a vacuous vehicle that struts its stuff without any convincing ounce of concrete involvement whatsoever."

"Kaosayananda’s approach to this thunderous and over-indulgent stylish stinker is quite simplistic: load up on excessive explosions that’s meant to give a personality to a straining and exceedingly moronic martial arts motion picture."
