Men in Black II

Pros: Returning characters. Great special effects. Some interesting aliens.
Cons: Not as good as the original Men in Black

I really liked Men in Black, and I was waiting impatiently for a while to see Men in Black II. I have read and heard that some people didn’t like this movie. I did. My expectations for the movie weren’t extremely high, so I ...

Pros: Frank the pug is funny
Cons: Feels long and does not build on first film

I can’t think of a film sequel more devoid of the spirit of its predecessor than “Men In Black II.” The first film was a silly, fun-filled look at a secret government organization that keeps the world safe from alien threats. “MIB II” takes the...

Pros: Frank the dog, some funny moments
Cons: could have been better, things felt "off", first one was better

Ever since we knew there would be such a thing as Men In Black II hubby and I have wanted to see it. Yesterday, after much anticipation we were there. In the movie theater watching Men In Black II. And now, I'm thinking if only we'd skipped...

Pros: It's short so you don't have time to die of boredom
Cons: Uh, let's see, how about everything

This hear is Jed P. Fuddplucker back after a long abstinance. Mike.Holmes alwaze duz this to me. We went to see a moovie that wuz a seequell to "Men In Black" from 'bout 5 yeers ago and Mike.Holmes brane shut down during the middle of the film. So...

Pros: Frank the Dog. You'll understand once you see it.
Cons: Lara Flynn Anorexic Boyle. Way too much of her.

The Story
The Men in Black are back – minus agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) who retired five years ago after giving many years of service to the agency. Agent J (Will Smith) has moved up the ranks and is well on his way to becoming...

Pros: More of the good stuff
Cons: Lack of chemistry between Lee and Smith

Men In Black II is a worthy follow up to the box office hit of a few years ago. The main players, Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, are back, plus some new villains played by MTV’s Johnny Knoxville and super hottie Lara Flynn Boyle. It starts out showing...

Pros: Smith and Jones deliver what they can with this 88 minute fluff
Cons: The novelty has worn off

In 1997, Men in Black hit the box office with a sucker punch, unexpectedly taking in over $80 million over Fourth of July weekend on its way to a $300+ million domestic gross. Its stars, Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, were well-cast, its special...

Pros: The Ballchinian. Who was on screen for about 3 seconds. That's it.
Cons: The rest of this joyless mess.

Pros: The chemistry between Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones is undeniably great.
Cons: A stupid story provided wasted plotlines for some very interesting characters.

I went to Men In Black II last night expecting at least a mildly good time. And I really needed to have a mildly good time. I needed an escape, I needed a laugh. And I went into it knowing it had received generally bad reviews, but I thought that...

Pros: Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones.
Cons: Lacks originality, creativity, and entertainment. DVD a dud.

Five years and 80 minutes later it is pretty apparent to me that Men in Black II is the death of the Men in Black franchise before it even gets the chance to be awarded such a label. Hopefully, five years from now, another won’t be made...

Pros: Tommy Lee Jones, occasional funny bits.
Cons: Editing, direction, music.

After a few weeks of being pleasantly surprised by initially unpromising films (Goldmember, Spiderman, Scooby-Doo, you name it), it was about time I had my illusions shattered. However, I never expected this rude awakening to come from a Barry Sonnenfeld...

Pros: Some great comedy, the Chubbchubbs!!
Cons: big huge gaping plot holes, some poor effects

NOTE: This covers the MIB movie, the Chubbchubbs short, and the DVD (extras and such) with the plot spoilers section clearly marked. Most Men In Black fans tend to find the second movie tolerable at most. I find it slightly better than just tolerable ...

Pros: Lots of humor and good special effects.
Cons: Could have been longer.

Two agents walk up to a little flower growing up from a grate in New York. It looks innocent. The more experienced agent, named Jay, instructs the newbie, agent Tee, to do things right and by the book. When the two approach the flower Tee gives the...

Pros: Temp jobs for joke writers, CGI artists, screenwriters.
Cons: Noticeable inconsistent production. bad jokes, stretched dialogs to fill time.

A few useless words from the writer:
This review is created with the intent to help those who have not seen the movie to make a decision. Therefore, you will not find plot descriptions that I believe will give away too much. Since I have...

Pros: Tommy Lee Jones Gives a Surprising Performance, More Exciting Special Effects, Hilarious As Expected.
Cons: Overall Somewhat Predictable, Usual Sequel Fodder For the Most Part.

Ok, so what do you really expect from a sequel? You usually want the same characters from the first movie, played by the same actors as the first movie (it just turns me 3 shades of red when they try that replacement actor junk), and a similar story line...
