Enemy of the State 1998 is very relevant for today

The passing of
Gene Hackman made me interested in the actor again, and then I saw that he made a movie with
Tony Scott, from
Jerry Bruckheimer about surveillance. Recent fascination of mine with
Michael Bay and stuff related to him, like the fact that a lot of the style of Bay came almost directly from Tony Scott. And the fact that Bay worked with Bruckheimer in the time this movie was released. And the fact that the star of
Bad Boys Will Smith is the star of
Enemy of the State. All of that made it inevitable that I should check the movie out.

Bad Boys 2 is Michael Bay's Magnum Opus

Similarly to
Michael Mann's
Miami Vice Bad Boys II is about love, man... It is about how both
Will Smith and
Martin Lawrence love
Gabrielle Union. And how they are willing to do international terrorism and kill many many people, to save her. True love bro!

Gone in 60 Seconds ( 2000 ) is better than it's rating suggests

What is it with
Jerry Bruckheimer of the late 90s and early 2000s and with
Nicolas Cage? First in 96 we get
Michael Bay's
The Rock. A year later in 97 Jerry puts Cage in
Simon West's
Con Air. And then in 2000
Dominic Sena under the supervision of Bruckheimer puts Nicolas out of his Cage and into a driver's seat of 1967 Ford Shelby GT500, in the subject of this review, the loose remake of
H. B. Halicki 1974 film
Gone in 60 Seconds.

Bad Boys 1995 is a Tarantino picture gone Bayhem!

The first thing you notice when watching
Michael Bay's directorial debut
Bad Boys is that the movie is not trying to be a Michael Bay film. There was no Michael Bay films prior to it. Bay was doing music videos and commercials before this film. And while those do have some of the style Bay will eventually bring over to his cinema pictures, here it seems he is actually trying something else entirely. The best analogy for the movie would be
Tony Scott's 1993 film
True Romance written by
Quentin Tarantino.
