Baywatch 🎥 2017 Movie Info

Plot Summary

In Emerald Bay, Florida, Lt. Mitch Buchannon is a beloved member of an elite lifeguard division known as Baywatch. The team, including second-in-command Stephanie Holden and veteran C. J. Parker, protects the beaches and the bay. They are opposed by jealous beat cop Garner Ellerbee and Mitch’s superior, Captain Thorpe. On morning patrol, Mitch finds a small pouch of flakka near the Huntley Club, owned by powerful businesswoman Victoria Leeds. Later, he meets Matt Brody, an entitled Olympic gold medal-winning swimmer who expects to make the Baywatch team without trying out. Mitch and Brody compete in a variety of physical tests, which Mitch wins.

As the course is ending, a woman and her two children fall into the water, so the lifeguards and Brody rush to save them. Brody makes the team along with Ronnie Greenbaum and Summer Quinn. A private yacht catches fire, and the occupants are evacuated alive by Baywatch except for city councilman Rodriguez, who dies. Suspicious, Mitch and his team continue to investigate to Ellerbee’s disapproval. They infiltrate the hospital morgue, discovering that Rodriguez was murdered. The trio hides, taking a video of Leeds’ henchmen planting an autopsy report to cover up the murder, but are discovered, so the recording is destroyed.

Thorpe threatens to fire Mitch if he oversteps again. Convinced Leeds is running the drugs through the Huntley, Mitch, and Brody go undercover and witness drugs being retrieved from barrels of fish. When they contact Ellerbee, they learn another dead body has been found on the beach. Thorpe, enraged that Mitch deserted his post, fires him. Brody is named the new lieutenant, although he does not want the job, but is forced to take it. Brody later sees “sand grifters” steal bags using a cooler. He chases them off the beach and keeps the cooler.
