Bad Boys 2
Narcotics detectives Mike Lowrey (Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Lawrence) have been assigned to a high-tech task force investigating the flow of designer ecstasy into Miami. Their inquiries inadvertently lead them to a major conspiracy involving a vicious kingpin (Molla), whose ambitions to take over the city's drug trade have ignited a bloody turf war. But Mike and Marcus's friendship and working relationship is threatened when Mike begins to develop feelings for Marcus' sister Syd (Union). Unless they can separate the personal from the professional, the bad boys are in danger of blowing the case and endangering Syd's life in the process.

Did you know? (info taken from imdb.com)
The producers had to receive emergency relief of the manatee protection laws from Florida Governor Jeb Bush to hold the high-speed boat chase in the Miami River.
Marcus's dog, 'Mason' actually belongs to the film's director, Michael Bay. 'Martin Lawrence' was uncomfortable acting around the dog during filming due to the dog's large size.
The car chase through the hillside town in Cuba was inspired by a near identical scene in the beginning of Jackie Chan's Police Story.
Director Michael Bay comments on the DVD that they got through the whole car chase without damaging the Ferrari (in spite of what we saw on film for laughs). He complains that Will Smith struck a concrete barrier with the passenger door in a following scene (an outtake).
The MacArthur Causeway, the main route to South Beach in Miami, was shut down for several days for filming. This caused literally thousands of people to have to go miles out of their way to get to and from Miami Beach in early August 2002.
