Meanwhile there is a relationship between Lowrey and Burnett's sister, Syd (Gabrielle Union), who also happens to be undercover with the DEA. Syd has gone undercover as a banker for one of Tapia's associates. When the deal goes awry, Burnett and Lowrey jumps in and save Syd. When they ask Syd what she was doing being involved in the case, she refuses to tell them about it because she is under strict orders from the DEA not to discuss any information with the Miami Police Department because they have been reported to have too many leaks. In an unfortunate turn of events, Syd is captured by Johnny Tapia and taken to Cuba. Gabrielle Monique Union (born October 29, 1972) is an African-American actress and former model. ...

When the DEA refuses to take any action, Burnett and Lowrey along with their team of mostly ex-Delta commandos, prepare a plan to recover Syd from Tapia's capture. They construct two tunnels from a safe house owned by Lowrey and Burnett's colleague's brother (a member of Alpha 66) located directly opposite Tapia's mansion in Cuba. The first tunnel would allow several members from their team to surface in the garden of the mansion and take out the security room on the side of the mansion. The second tunnel intercepted the escape tunnel from the mansion in the case that Tapia planned to escape or if the CIA and other team members needed to escape, they could leave through an alternative route. Alpha 66 was a paramilitary anti-Castro terrorist group, under the auspices of the CIA, formed by Cuban exiles in Florida who trained during the 1960s and 1970s in the Everglades for an eventual armed invasion of Cuba. ...

Video game A video game version of the film, known as Bad Boys: Miami Takedown in North America, was released in 2004 on the PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube and Windows. Originally planned for release in late 2003 (to tie in with the film's DVD release), the game was pushed back several months. The game failed to deliver any sort of sales or critical acclaim due to poor development; it was given low ratings from many game web sites. Many people have said that it is far too easy and shooting deliberately away from an enemy still kills them in about two or three shots. The game received very negative reviews by magazines and it has been called one of the worst film to game flops.[3] The game was rated #10 Worst game of the "Best and Worst Video Games of all Time".[4] Computer and video games redirects here. ...
