Review of Men in Black II (2002) by Kevin M — 23 May 2012
Much inferior to the very good original. The dialogue in MiB II is mostly cheesy and poorly written. Clocking in at only an hour and 20 minutes, it felt incredibly rushed. They tried to stuff way too many events in a very brief movie which could easily have been puffed out to 2 hours.
The secondary antagonist, Jarra was very stupid looking and his character felt useless. Although, it's not all bad: Frank the dog is the funniest part of the film, and I always love to see Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones on screen together.
I also loved the very brief but hilarious appearance of Patrick Warburton. In the end, this sequel didn't feel like a sequel at all, more like a Men in Black 1.5. It's so rushed and forgettable that once it's over, you'll feel like you've been neuralyzed.
Pun intended.
