Not as bad as you might remember it

Plus it has the always reliable Rosario Dawson in it. Just for her you've got to love the movie (or at least not hate it, in my opinion). But this movie delivers on the same formula that made the first one a success. The earnest Tommy Lee Jones, who apparently had no idea, why people would think he is funny, or it's just a rumor. Whatever the truth, his straight face against the clownish Will Smith works perfectly as it did in MiB too.
For some reason (maybe creative, maybe because it didn't succeed to top expectations), this was the last MI(I)B people had the pleasure watching for awhile. But of course a third one would be on the way. I wouldn't say it's necessary to watch the first one to get this, but it's always good to have some back-story.
