"That's canine profile"

Rating: 8/10 (31 January 2011)

Some time after the second MIB movie was in the movies, I read more than six comments that reacted negatively to MIB II. When I saw MIB II the first time, I was not as impressed. Now it seems that I like MIB II more and I see it more often. I love both movies. In many ways the second flick was better. Y'all are always saying more bang for the buck, well, I thought MIB II had it. In many ways the movie was serious. The earth was about to be destroyed, and that's an old plot line, I realized. But the movie was funny almost all the way through. There was romance, some drama, action, thrills, everything you would desire from a good sci-fi. Agent J is there with his normal urban humor you might expect from his buddy in Bad Boys, but still prevailing as the smart agent policing the Earth for criminal aliens. Serleena is a handful. The key plot in MIB II is the light of Zartha. Serleena in her zest and evil kills the pizza guy, but the rapist, well, he gets what he deserves I think. Serleena has a varied appetite.
Frank the pug(a dog) gets a starring role in this installment of Men In Black. Seems pretty smart, but cannot sing Gloria Gaynor very well. But it's funny. He finds himself a prisoner in the MIB headquarters.
There are a lot more special effects here, more alien characters. A lot of them turn up at Jeeb's Joint, where Agent K has gone with Agent J. Agent K is using Jeeb's deneuralyzer, powered by an Evinrude outboard motor. Later, J and K run into Newton and his girlfriend at their video store, and the story thickens.
A lot of fun, this movie is. The key is not to take any of it seriously, and yes, TLJ has probably made better movies, movies a lot older than this. But this one's fun, especially the 10,000 foot long worm.
