Will Smith and Martin Lawrence reunite as Miami cops, 25 years older from their youthful introduction the first time around. Smith is the "bulletproof" daredevil nemesis of criminals everywhere, while Lawrence is contemplating retirement and the family life. Insert into this the return of the Mexican crime family who has a personal connection to Smith which unfolds over the course of the movie, and erupts in Miami. While this is action, and cheeky fun, it wasn't astounding and was clearly building on the memory of the originals. In fact, this felt like 2/3 backstory/plot setup, 1/6 movie, 1/6 setup for the future. I found myself generally underwhelmed.
