Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
If you've seen the trailer, you've seen almost everything good in Bad Company.
Rock doesn't really act with the other performers; he stands next to them and buzzes in his own orbit.
Despite its cliche-ridden premise, Bad Company often works simply because there's so much talent on the screen.
Predictably soulless techno-tripe.
