Critics Consensus

Baywatch takes its source material's jiggle factor to R-rated levels, but lacks the original's campy charm -- and leaves its charming stars flailing in the shallows.

The biggest disappointment of this feature is that it's not even so bad it's good.

The'Baywatch reboot is mildly diverting but altogether dull. Summer fun shouldn't feel like such a chore.

Suffice it to say, too, that there's a lot of delight to be had in the frothy union of the Bay and the Watch, much of it coming from Johnson, who carries the whole of this movie on his epically chiseled lats.

Every Movie Has a Lesson

Baywatch exchanges many of the soap opera-level character notes and story tangents of the TV show for gushingly over-the-top R-rated gags and blockbuster-level thrills.

Rated: 3/5

Firstpost

In Baywatch, characters are introduced with style. But the storyline itself is routine, predictable.

Film Frenzy

A movie based on a show about brain-baked lifeguards isn't going to stir memories of, say, A Man for All Seasons or The King's Speech or even Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, but within its own parameters, Baywatch knows the territory.

Rated: 2.5/4

Last month, I found myself in an incredibly stressful situation. My business’s cryptocurrency wallet, which held a significant portion of our operational funds, was compromised. I had received a phishing email that appeared legitimate and, unfortunately, clicked on a link that led to my private key being stolen. Within hours, a substantial amount of our funds was drained from the wallet. Desperate to recover our assets, I reached out to Fastfund Recovery based on their positive reviews and expertise in the field. The process started with a thorough initial consultation. Fastfund Recovery’s team was highly professional and empathetic. They took the time to understand the details of the breach and explained how they could potentially help. They provided a clear overview of the steps involved and the likely outcomes, setting realistic expectations from the outset. Working with Fastfund Recovery was a positive experience despite the stressful circumstances. Their expertise, professionalism, and transparent approach were invaluable. They handled my case with the utmost care and demonstrated a strong commitment to recovering as much as possible. If you find yourself in a similar situation, I highly recommend reaching out to Fastfund Recovery. Their team is dedicated to helping clients navigate the complex world of cryptocurrency recovery.

Why take a relatively family-friend series and add so many f-bombs, boob jokes, and penis jokes that it is rated R? Was it because the action and plot were improved? No way. What a waste of some likable talent.

Honestly the only thing that saved this were a few of the jokes, the plot made no sense felt like there was no development and honestly there was just a big build up to nothing. A good thing to watch if you want a laugh and background noise.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars
