Who Is Mike Lowrey?
Any fan of buddy cop movies will surely know. Well, at least if they were born before 2010 they will. Mike Lowry is of course detective Michael Eugen Lowrey from Bad Boys. The character was played by Will Smith, hence, Lowrey might have seemed familiar to you.
Bad Boys was a mid-nineties classic, and the film that (unfortunately) skyrocketed Michael Bay's career. Mike Lowrey is a Miami detective living the high-life. But when his buddy Marcus makes the arrest of the decade by seizing heroin with a market value of almost 100 million US dollars, it gets stolen from the evidence room. Mike and Marcus' supervisor, Captain Howard, is appalled and gets into trouble with internal investigations, who believe an insider made the break-in possible. Mike and Marcus are given 72 hours to solve the theft before the higher-ups close their department. Despite that description, it really is a great film, trust us.
