Men in Black II (2002)

J&K defend the space attack against Serleena, who possess quite a number of powers. She succeeds in unleashing the battle largely but J&K manage to get through in the end. The sequence of Jeff and chemistry of J & Laura is interesting. Moreover K also faces the past and realizes the Laura in none but his own daughter. Finally Laura manages to exit Earth onto her own planet.

Continuing my plan to watch every Will Smith movie in order, I come to Men In Black 2Plot In A Paragraph: Agent J (Will Smith) needs help so he is sent to find Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) and restore his memory.After two great performances, it's disappointing seeing Will Smith back to just playing himself. But those movies under performed at the Box Office and he was in need of a hit movie after 3 flops in a row. Dull, bland, generic and pretty boring. It doesn't make the most of the chemistry between Smith and Jones, has a weak villain and even the special effects are nothing special. Men In Black 2 grossed $190million to end the year the 8th highest grossing movie of 2002.

This film is OK, but just OK. At it's best it's slick, at it's worst it's clunkily predictable. It's fast-paced, which sometimes lets you ignore the flaws in the storytelling, but at others makes thing jerky and monotonous.The characters from the original are still entertaining here, but they haven't really developed, and the new additions are one- dimensional. It's watchable, and I didn't zone out of the action, but there's just no spark. It doesn't really add anything new to what we got from the original, it isn't funny enough, and it doesn't really leave you feeling anything. One to while away an empty 90 minutes, but not more than once.

I remember enjoying - to a degree - the first MEN IN BLACK when I saw it in cinemas back in 1997 when it came out. I never bothered with this sequel, having grown tired of Will Smith's brash persona, but when I saw it advertised on TV I thought I'd check it out. Better late than never, right? Well, no, as it happens. This is an awful sequel in every aspect made with zero intellect and a greedy eye on the purses of movie-goers. It stands as one of Hollywood's worst sequels EVER, jettisoning the first film's originality and fresh feel to offer a storyline that simply copies that of the original movie except with more CGI effects.The first thing noticeable when you watch this film in 2015 is that the CGI effects are AWFUL. Worse even than you'd expect to see in a typical Asylum film. There's barely a single scene without some alien effect or other, and none of them are good, while a lot of them are excruciating. The action scenes that mix in wirework with CGI are the worst of the worst.Otherwise, the film goes through the motions. Smith and Jones are on autopilot and none of their jokes are particularly funny. Lara Flynn Boyle's hammy villain is embarrassing, and the less said about fresh-faced Rosario Dawson, the better (hint: she was much better in SIN CITY). About the only things I liked in this film were the pug - although I'd have liked it better if it hadn't talked - and the Michael Jackson cameo. Everything else is just appalling.
