Get in Mood, and Go with It!

Rating: 8/10 (4 September 2002)

This is not big cinema art. It's a sequel, so it cannot be too original. However, if you know what you bought tickets for, and if you get in the right mood, you can really enjoy it.
MIB 2 repeats many of the original gags in the original MIB. It does it with enthusiasm, and adds sufficient new effects to make the whole film enjoyable.
Tomy Lee Jones and Will Smith have fun, and this is so obvious that it makes us join eventually. The comic arrows are still on the science fiction and cheap press, and the film is almost completely lacking vulgarity - which makes it palatable for children (or better their puritanic parents).
And yes, there is a fresh new character - a Princess! - leaving an un-finished romantic line by the end. My guess is that this is the sign of a future MIB 3, and we might have a WIB in it!
