Editorial Review:

More remake than sequel, Men in Black II safely repeats everything that made Men in Black the blockbuster hit of 1997. That's fine if you loved the original's fresh humor, weird aliens, and loopy ingenuity, but as sequels go, it's pure déjà vu. Makeup wizard Rick Baker is the only MIB alumnus who's trying anything new, while director Barry Sonnenfeld and costars Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones (as alien-fighting agents Jay and Kay, respectively) are on autopilot with an uninspired screenplay. The quest of a multitentacled alien--on Earth in the form of Lara Flynn Boyle--for the light of Zartha requires Jay to deneuralize Kay, whose restored memory contains the key to saving the planet. The tissue-thin premise allows all varieties of special effects--mostly familiar, with some oddly hilarious new stuff tossed in for good measure. Certainly enjoyable as a popcorn distraction, but the MIB magic has worn a bit thin. --Jeff Shannon

Not as good as the first, but still very enjoyable:

The first movie is special and one of a kind, but MIB II is still extemely funny and I cannot wait for MIB III !!!!

Deception:

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.more info

Biggest disappointment in awhile.:

The plot completely ruins the sweet and touching ending of the first. Patrick Warburton character and Smith's love interest are completely unnecessary and sometimes annoying. The villain pales in comparison to the cockroach guy in the original.
By the end of the movie, you simply do not care how it turns out.
Terrible, Terrible, Terrible.

Saving the Earth From the Scum of the Universe, Again...:

After successfully saving the planet from a deadly alien threat and raking in big money at the box office, the boys at 'MIB' were livin' the good life and enjoying all the perks of being beloved by moviegoers. Which is probably why Columbia Pictures felt the need to bring more intergalactic action and hilarity to the masses with a sequel to the highly popular film with the hopes of starting a franchise. So, 5 years after their first big screen adventure, Agent's K and J (Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith) are... more info
