With the summer release of “Bad Boys II” right around the corner, Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment is going to release “Bad Boys” to DVD as a part of the “Superbit” collection. Martin Lawrence and Will Smith were both recognizable from television and smaller budgeted films, but “Bad Boys” was their first action film and it was a huge enough success to establish both men as movie stars. With Lawrence playing the henpecked family man and Smith a lady’s man, our Miami Detectives team up to find stolen drug evidence with a 72-hour deadline.

Complicating things is the murder witness, who has their identities mixed up. Say what you want about Michael Bay and his brand of action picture, but as far as I’m concerned he makes great looking action pictures with a glossy eye developed from his commercial background.

So it is no surprise that “Bad Boys” makes an excellent candidate for the “Superbit” series of films on DVD from Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment with a great looking anamorphic widescreen (1.85:1) aspect ratio presentation and an excellent English DTS Digital 5.1 Theatrical Surround Sound and a Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Soundtrack included as well. The picture and sound benefit from the double the rate picture and sound mastering that makes “Bad Boys: Superbit” a great demo DVD for action film fans. Optional English Captions and Closed Captions and French, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, and Thai Language Subtitles are encoded onto the DVD as options too.

A standard “Superbit” release, the DVD has no extra features, but delivers where it counts the most and that is with an excellent picture quality and soundtrack. “Bad Boys: Superbit” will debut on DVD-Video on Tuesday, May 13, 2003 from Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment.
