Review of Bulletproof

Bulletproof (2018–2021)
7/10
Bad Boys UK style
3 April 2020
Bulletproof is a UK take on Bad Boys. Its not a bad series either.

Bulletproof captures the vibe found in the Martin Lawrence, Will Smith team up from the mid 1990's. Its a gun toting, fast cars, hard crime, mash up.

The main characters, like Lawrence and Smith's, are "yin to the others yang". One an established family man, the other an on the make bachelor.This helps to establish the dynamic that exists between the two. The clever banter is there too. Much of it comedic and predictable but written well enough to actually offer some depth to the characterisations, as well.

Suffice to say, this is a quality formula that works just as well in a UK context. Indeed, its interesting to see British and I suspect, London cultural nuances, found in this series, as opposed to the US product.

7/10 from me.
