Story
The Bad Guys must overcome their greatest obstacle to date in order to reconcile their newfound heroic roles with their innate criminal tendencies in this eagerly awaited sequel. A strong new gang lures them into a risky heist, and they have to use cunning, cooperation, and a little bit of luck to save the city and, at last, gain the acceptance and trust they so desperately need. Is their past going to get the better of them, or will they succeed? The Bad Guys 2 will reveal all!
Plot
Following their brave metamorphosis in the first movie, Mr. Wolf and his group are content with their newfound status as ex-criminals turned good guys. It is not as simple as they expected for them to adapt to a world in which they are expected to be the heroes. Despite their best efforts, they struggle with trust issues from the public and even within their own group.
Their tranquil new lives are upended when they are the target of a heist by an elite group of female criminals. The team, headed by the sly and enigmatic Foxy Lady, is attempting the most daring theft in history, and they think the Bad Guys are the only ones who can pull it off. The crew must decide whether to risk their hard-earned good reputations by accepting or refuse and incur the wrath of the new criminal gang.
The Bad Guys must weave a web of deceit, intrigue, and treachery as they organize and carry out this “one last job.” They come across a plot that could put the city as a whole in jeopardy while traveling. They have limited time, so they will have to use their past criminal prowess to defeat the new bad guys and win the day, demonstrating once and for all that they are the real Good Guys.
