Lame duck sequel

Rating: 3/10 (24 August 2005)

Agent J (Will Smith) now partnered with Agent T (Patrick Warburton, Puddy from "Seinfeld"), after wiping out the memories of Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones). When that partnership doesn't work out as planned, and with Agent J on a mission that he needs all the help he needs, he goes out to make agent K remember and partner up once again to foil the plans of an alien spore in the guess of a centerfold model. This film was an obvious attempt to cash in on a franchise. And it obviously worked since it made oodles of cash. But as a true movie, it's a lost cause as it's just more of the same of the first movie. Minus the originality, and even the minuscule amount of charm that the first one had. Instead really too much on sight gags and lame humor, sacrificing the story, as flimsy as it might be. Only worthy of a rental, simply for the "Chubbchubbs" short that is available on the same DVD.
