If you're a fan of Men in Black,
then get ready for more alien fun. The sequel offers plenty worth
seeing and adds to the follow up to the original.
The gadgets and cool effects are top notch
and plentiful, but the film really relies on humor more than
anything else.
The movie only lasts 88 minutes, and things
move along faster than a Roadrunner cartoon--so sit back as aliens
of all shapes and sizes roll by trying to be humans. Just great
fun! |
Like most sequels, this one has little
plot and maintains its momentum on the sheer chemistry of its
stars. So it may be the same old stuff, but it is the familiarity
that makes it so funny.
Tommy Lee Jones deadpanning as a postal
employee, Frank the Pug stealing every scene he's in, and Will
Smith as the "responsible" agent--I'm just glad they're
out there to keep our universe a safer place to live. |
Men in Black II
are back with improved special effects.
Everything is played for laughs in this
science-fiction comic-book comedy. This is summer fun and nothing
should be taken seriously.
I thought the scene stealer of this film
was a dog named Frank. He's a suit-wearing, "I Will Survive"-singing,
cigar-smoking pug (dressed in black). That pooch alone is worth
the price of admission, in my view. |
