Verdict on Bad Boy

Recap

This documentary tells the story of Jeremy Bailey, who overcame a difficult childhood marked by encounters with police brutality to become a successful boxer. But his life takes a dramatic turn when he’s linked to a massive cash robbery. The film follows his legal battles and his search for belonging, showcasing a lifestyle that constantly draws unwanted attention and forces him to rely on his words to de-escalate tense situations.

Best Parts

This effectively portrays both the challenges and the peaceful side of a life under police scrutiny, highlighting the individual’s composure when facing difficulties over time.

Worst Parts

The movie spends too much time on the surface details and doesn’t fully explain why Jeremy became a suspect in the robbery. The more important story is understanding why he was initially investigated and his connections to the other people involved. It focuses too much on his risky lifestyle and the resulting police attention, rather than the core mystery.

Final Thoughts –Bad Boy does examine the life of someone involved in attracting police attention.
