Joel Schumacher and Jerry Bruckheimer should never be allowed to work together. While I hate Schumacher, I like Bruckheimer. I think most of his movies get bad raps. I liked his work with Michael Bay, but this one is intolerable. Everything... Full review

This movie had a unique combination: serious synopsis and funny scripts combined together. I actually enjoyed it a lot. A LOT. I would say that Chris Rock was absolutely hilarious and it was even FUNNIER because he was the only comical... Full review

you had seen a brilliant action film starring Chris Rock as a secret agent and Anthony Hopkins as his boss, I would have laughed I your face!....But this turned out to be one of the best films I have ever seen.....Chris Rock is amazing as Jake Hayes, he is confident to the point of cocky as Jake.....The characters Sir Anthony is as fantastic as ever as Officer Oakes, a cynical CIA agent lumbered with the job of turning Jake into Michael.....But his performance as Jake Hayes playing Kevin Pope playing Michae ...

I love a good action comedy but this isnt one.
Hopkins is as good as ever, cool as a cucumber, offering a wonderful contrast to Rocks hyperactive gift of the gab.
You can be assured youre in good company.

Bad Company is a truly awful movie.....Now, I've long been a supporter of Bruckheimer's action flicks, but I doubt....I've heard recitations of the English alphabet delivered with more creativity than what's on display in this astonishingly bad movie.....even the producer's mother could find something to love in this atrocious movie..... ...

The film's at its best working the relationship between Hopkins (veteran CIA agent) and Rock (street-wise stand in for his twin brother) for a little humor and a little heart.
Often, his characters are too proper or intellectual for a simple gun; surprisingly it's great fun to see him fire his pistol in this flick.
