What a disappointment, oh god! A movie like MIB (1) deserved a 1000 times better sequel than this turkey Mr. Sonnenfeld has delivered (or thrown?) to us. It started ok, nice chick, great body, funny scene. But as agent J comes to stage everything goes down the drain like the flush scene in the deneuralizer room. I mean, Will Smith was supposed to make us laugh as much as he did in the first one or even more (as everyone was expecting after seeing the trailer which shows the sole funny parts of the entire movie!). Instead his acting is so cheap. bi-dimensional. and ultimately bad that after the scene with the worm thing in the subway I could just predict that the whole movie wasn't going to get any better. I was sort of praying for Tommy Lee Jones to save the ranch, as he is a serious, more experienced and better actor than Smith. Instead, he was acting like shaving on a Monday morning! Spirit-less, like just making it for the paycheck and the pressure over him to pull out a sequel. Any of his lines in the movie are even close to funny whatsoever. And of course, let's skip Jonnhy Knoxville part! I'm just gonna say that he indeed proved what he is, a Jackass! I think that the only savable acting among this bunch of disasters is the dog which had the best lines and gave a sort of relief to the pain coused by the rest of the cast. Besides this, the special effects are not even close to good, the only acceptable ones where Frank the dog and maybe the flying car, The rest of it....oh boy!! who did this???? same crew as MIB?? what happened to you guys?? had a glitch in the budget and had to change your Silicon Graphics for Comodores 64 to cover it??? I can't believe that in 2002 and with a similar budget to the first movie (made 5 years ago) you can pull off (not even accidentally) such bad special effects like for instance, the Ivy alien, the Worm alien, Jonnhy knowville second head and so many other cheap, close to B-movie SFX that would be only impressive if they had been done 15 years ago! Specially that part when the pod thing mounts fly on the sky in the last part...GEEZ you could even see the residual blue border around the figure of the black girl inside the pod like in movies from the 80's! Unacceptable. period. This movie sucks, from head to toes. It killed the first movie likewise The Lost World did with Jurassic Park (or even worse). You guys (crew) should put the MIB saga to sleep forever for good. This kind of trash is what I call 'let's forget about art and let's make it just for the money. Let's make it more childish, anyway, kids don't recognize a bad SFX from a good one'. What a shame.

5 Reasons Why I Like This Sequel Better
Added 3/20/2009
This sequel to a popular first film was a pleasant surprise to me. In fact, I think I like this better than the original, much better. Why? Well.....
1 - It is extremely entertaining and just an hour-and-half long; 2 - It has a much softer edge to it with more humor than the original; 3 - the special effects with the variety of little aliens are excellent; 4 - it's easier on the profanity than the first film, making this more kid-friendly; 5 - at 90 minutes the length of the movie is just right.
Yes, the story can be stupid at times, but so was the first one, and the good qualities listed above far outweigh that negative. Tommy Lee Jones is fun to watch again and Will Smith isn't as arrogant as he was in the first movie.
This is a no-brainer played strictly for laughs and it succeeds beautifully in that regard.

Deception
Added 7/19/2008
I realize that I paid a low price for this item, but the description left much to be desired, such as truth.
The disk came in a ratty, beat up case that was not the original, but some generic case they just threw the disk into. The disk was so badly scratched that none of my DVD drives would play it, not even the ones in my computers. The disk should have been pitched in the trash because it was garbage, not sold to some unsuspecting boob. This is one unsuspecting boob who won't quietly go away.
All attempts at communication failed miserably, they either don't check email or don't respond to it.
This is the first (and I hope the last) time I've had to give an Amazon vendor a bad review, but I have no choice, this transaction was terrible and borders on fraud. I gave it one star because it wouldn't zero stars.

Men in Black/Men in Black II
Added 2/16/2009
Hello,
These movies are very intertaining and easy to enjoy. Fun for the whole family. I do not remember any foul language or any thing that would keep children from being able to watch this. I enjoyed this and my family enjoyed this.
Thanks

Love MIB, MIB 2 is terrible
Added 1/12/2009
MIB 1 is great. MIB 2 is painful to watch. Even the Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones seem to be in pain throughout the movie.

Classic Science Fiction
Added 1/9/2009
Can't go wrong with this classic science fiction combo of Men in Black and it's sequel, Men in Black II. My daughter loves these movies... Word of caution: there is some [mild for these times] foul language so just ensure age appropriateness for your audience.
