It’s rare that a blockbuster movie feels this competently, serenely middle-of-the-road, but maybe being this safe in an era of easy outrage is its own form of mild, moderate, entirely bland achievement. Read full review

Tessa Thompson and Chris Hemsworth’s chemistry and rookie/vet dynamic is almost enough to make you forget about the missed opportunity and just relish in all the alien tomfoolery. Read full review

The plotting is clunky and haphazard. But when together, Thompson, Hemsworth and Nanjiani turn Men In Black: International into something funny and silly: a pleasant enough lark in formal wear. Read full review

It takes more than two Avengers and the director of Fast & Furious 8 to make the MIB hip again. Read full review

F. Gary Gray can be a fine action director and sometimes better than fine, but the scenes that should pop and pow — given the squealing tires, bared knuckles and laser beams — consistently fall flat. Read full review

Many fans wished to see these two actors trade witty barbs once again, but the pair’s new movie, Men in Black: International, strips away just about everything fun from the duo except their on-screen presence. Read full review

The settings seem shopworn and the whole exercise feels hollow. Long ago, when the first “Men in Black” hit the screen, the most conspicuous of its many delights were Will Smith’s street-smart but sweet-spirited cop who became Agent J, and Tommy Lee Jones’s wearily imperious Agent K. Now they’re gone, and all delight has gone with them. Only weariness remains. Read full review

The plot is insignificant, especially since it has them trying to save the universe (yawn). There's plenty of action, but most of it is unexciting. Almost every scene is populated with a variety of wacky aliens, which keeps the visuals fun. It's slick and cool looking, but otherwise, relatively bland. Kumail Nanjiani voices the animated sidekick character and adds a few glimpses of humor, otherwise, there's little comedy that works. The new duo does OK with their roles. It's not a bad movie, just not living up to the comic or action standards of its predecessors.… Expand

All special effects ,no heart. They abandon the MIB core mythos and just resort to blasting everything in sight with big weapons. Feminist dialogue running thru the film as well.
The actors are just slumming it.

I long for the days when writers in Hollywood actually cared about their creative content. There are so many movie franchises that should have ended years ago, such as The Terminator saga, Toy Story, Star Wars, Jurassic Park, and Pirates of the Caribbean. These filmmakers can't just leaveI long for the days when writers in Hollywood actually cared about their creative content. There are so many movie franchises that should have ended years ago, such as The Terminator saga, Toy Story, Star Wars, Jurassic Park, and Pirates of the Caribbean. These filmmakers can't just leave what's already great alone. Of course, there are a few exceptions every here and there. However, Men In Black: International is not one of them. The majority of awful sequels these days definitely outweighs the anomalies. There are some moviegoers who don't mind Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson being paired together in this film. Needless to say, these two were already featured once before in Thor: Ragnarok. With MIB: International, it doesn't feel like a MIB movie without Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith. They should have stopped after MIB III. Most people don't want non-Marvel movies to imitate Marvel comic book films. It's not necessary, it's just cringe. Yes, this includes the casting. It may have been better to replace Thompson's character with Will Smith's. This way, Agent J, who is Will Smith, can show Chris Hemsworth the ropes. On second thought, it's not like this hasn't already been done before. Like I said before, this series ideally was supposed to end with MIB III. The golden guideline for screenwriters should be aiming for a trilogy, not winging it and milking it with four films, or five, or six movies. It's too much. Copycats are the last thing that Hollywood needs right now. Creative writing in this 21st century has become a forgotten necessity in the film industry. They care more about their politics than they do about their stories and characters.… Expand

Everything in this movie is bad.The story, writing, acting, special effects, everything is just awful. I can't remember a good thing about it. And Tessa Thompson sucks, why did they bother with her. It's even not funny at all. Avoid it and believe the bad reviews, unless you're 8 or 10 or something.
