Good. His directing got significantly worse with Bad Boys 2 imo and he had more freedom to do what he wanted, which is why that movie has more idiotic and tasteless elements to it than the original. I'm actually glad he isn't directing the third movie. Well, idiotic and tasteless is at least memorable. I don't remember much about 1, and I doubt I'll remember much about 3. We have a huge difference of opinion here. The first movie is the one that is much more memorable and it is memorable because it does what it does well and knew not to go overboard. Like The Rock for example. That is why those are his only good movies. It is memorable because of Bay's style when he knew how to restrain himself (or was forced to by the studio) and because of the chemistry between the 3 main characters. The dialogue is also much more naturalistic in the first movie. That is just me though. Well, and Roger Ebert, and most of the people I have asked anyway, and most of the critics. In regards to the first being the better movie I mean, not in that they agree with me that the first movie is memorable or even good. Bad Boys (1995) is one of the most fun action movies ever made as far as I'm concerned. Bad Boys II is just okay.
