how many bad boys movies are there
There are 4 Bad Boys movies in the main film series so far:
- Bad Boys (1995) – The original buddy-cop action comedy that introduced Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett.
- Bad Boys II (2003) – A bigger, louder sequel with Michael Bay ramping up the action and chaos in Miami.
- Bad Boys for Life (2020) – A later‑in‑life chapter that brings the duo back together with a more emotional edge.
- Bad Boys: Ride or Die (2024) – The latest theatrical entry, continuing the franchise nearly 30 years after the first film.
There is also a spin‑off TV series, “L.A.’s Finest” (2019), set in the same universe, but it is not counted as one of the core Bad Boys movies.
