One of the Best Sequels

Rating: 10/10 (7 December 2017)

Sequels are rarely as successful as their originals let alone better. Only a handful of sequels have been critically acclaimed.
Most moviegoers of my generation have considered Men In Black to be a classic. And fans were generally underwhelmed by the sequel. Ten years later, a second sequel was made and it blows the first sequel out of the water.
The time travel premise was intriguing. We get to learn about Agent K's backstory a little bit as it took place during one of the most significant moments in human history, the moon landing. Josh Brolin did an exceptional performance as a young Agent K. He nailed the personality and mannerisms perfectly.
Like the bug in the first movie, the villain here is very entertaining, although he has a more debonair, but equally repulsive character. He is arguably the most interesting villain in the Men In Black films. The supporting character, Griffin, adds heart to the film and is the most endearing characters that has appeared in the trilogy.
It would be criminal not to mention Will Smith's performance; Hilarious, witty, and awesome as always. Although the main attraction, in my opinion, is the young Agent K, Will delivers snappy dialogue in just about every scene he's in. Like when he's trying to coach K on delivering a sincere eulogy.
The build up to the climax is very exciting and thrilling. More so than the original. All of these elements have made this one of the best sequels of all time.
