Men in Black: International

**Men In Black International brought back memories nice spin on the movie especially with Molly Agent M.**

This movie even though I would agree it is not good as the original classic Men In Black Movies with Will Smith as the lead protagonist in. This brought back the franchise with a lovely funny spin to it especially having Molly (Agent M) played by Tessa Thompson was just so refreshing as the men in black agency are normally able to neuralyze everyone that seen anything that is out of the ordinary, nevertheless they missed out Molly who they thought was asleep in her bedroom as a kid. Molly setting out to find this secret agency twenty years later she hacks into a satellite then finds them after everyone thinks she is delusional, which she follows the Men In Black back to the New York Headquarters where she waltzes in through the front door that I thought is hilarious. Having Chris Hemsworth as Agent H (Harry) is so funny as he is kind of your average joker does not care what everyone thinks that does do what he wants when he wants, compared to Molly Agent M played by Tessa Thompson really keeps everything serious and logical while having a laugh from time to time. The random flirtations between the two is just nice to see really does gives Molly Agent M taking control in these flirtations interactions as she is a strong independent woman that knows what she wants and she knows exactly what she is doing, then Agent H (Harry) is much more of a flirtier protagonist that just wings it into action than logically thinks about what he is doing like Molly Agent M does when jumping into any kind of action with danger in. Pawny is just great an Alien who is just as well a bit of a joker he is also very kind and loyal towards his friends especially Molly his queen as he calls her. This movie is great to watch I hope they bring more Men In Black movies in the future as it is starting to show more equality with feminism, which I love that Women can be powerful protagonists too in these films not just your typical damsel in distress. This gives more opportunities to actors where the stories can run wilder becoming less predictable with more of a Gen Z way of life projected across films.

That was so much funnnnnnn omg I want another one.

8.5/10 - Wow, I really liked this movie (much more than I was expecting). The cast is great and the story is funny and not too messy IMO (at least for a MIB movie). Not sure (yet) why the reviews are so low.

I was most scared about the new female character (Molly Wright / Agent M) as I wanted her to be badass and not just silly or something like that. Luckily they did a good job IMO. I like the actress and her character. She's smart, badass, and of course looks good in black :D I quite liked the dynamics between her and Henry as well as Pawny.
It also provided a nice view from an outsider's perspective into MIB.

I also really love the voices of Liam Neeson, Chris Hemsworth, and Kumail Nanjiani (I really need to finish watching "Silicon Valley" as Kumail's voice sounded familiar but I couldn't remember from where... :o).

This was a lot of fun. From the very beginning, when Lady Columbia dons her shades, the mood is set for its "wink-wink, nudge-nudge" humour. There were subtle bits that made me laugh out loud. The cast is perfectly chosen, from the heavy-weight talents (Liam Nelson, Emma Thompson) to the buddy pairing/trio (Tessa Thompson, Chris Hemsworth/Kumail Nanjiani). Chris Hemsworth is absolutely adorable. The CGI is creative and well crafted. The adventure is just fun. I give this film a 9 (superb) out of 10. [Joy-ride of Action Adventure]

This is a very good entertaining movie. Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson work very well together. And a special mention to Pawny.

After reading the comments on this website and other, I didn't expect anything but an empty movie à la Marvel, with no content, half a story but good SFX to make us swallow the pill, but I was actually surprised, in a good way.
That might not be the best MIB movie, but I would place it in third position, as I found it better in many ways than MIB3.

If I had to state the number one reason this movie flopped, I'd probably blame the actors, particularly Tessa Thompson. While her character was inconsistent: borderline annoying at the start of the movie with her way-too-much-excited attitude to not-even-surprised-of-alien-stuff-everywhere fro the half of the movie, far from Will Smith's Agent L discovering the system on screen with us, it feel that Agent M was recruited on screen, acquired experience somehow and came back finishing the movie as a more mature agent... Plus she didn't really fit there, with no chemistry with the rest of the cast, it's more of a movie following two agents (and Pawny) than a duo.

Chris Hemsworth on the other way is a very good half of a duo, unfortunately there's no real second half, and he, or more likely his character can not (and should not) compensate that void alone.

Liam Neeson is probably the best pick for an experienced agent now head of a MIB branch, and play that role to the perfection
[spoiler] even though his over protective behavior toward agent H makes him suspicious early on in the movie [/spoiler].

The movie in itself is not as funny as the 2 first iterations, but has its moments, I can not say jokes fall flat because I did not notice a lot of them and the ones I noticed did at the very least make me smile, so it is not a failed attempt of comedy, but more likely a deliberate choice to bet on well... not humor at least.
The story was not half bad, but was not brand new, [spoiler]the concept of alien(s) coming on earth carrying an object/weapon incredibly powerful but searched but a destructive alien race sounds a lot like the first movies,[/spoiler] ok, there are a few twists, but it does not make it original enough to make this movie memorable, compared to MIB or MIB2.

I think the accent was put on blowing our mind with alien and advanced tech but too much it too much. When there is no reason , no purpose and makes no sense, why include it?
[spoiler]First a teleoperator can track an alien spaceship with a simple laptop while at work despite the incredible MIB tech, they can't fake an asteroid trajectory or erase it from an basic internet website?
Then, the New York subway transforming in a kind of overboosted hyperloop. The idea i actually really cool, but why in the hell did they need to include a physical transformation of the old looking classic metro train into a super advanced one while in both station aliens are roaming around hence the total absence of a need for camouflage. To be noted than in London, the train stay hi-tech...
Next, in the first fight scene against the twins, just outside the club, the car is filled with weapons, litteraly every single part of the car is a weapon cache, even the side mirrors or the exhaust pipe. And if you try to put it all together, you will quickly really, that it i not technically possible, unless the MIB cars would be secretly TARDIS?
Again with the cars, they can obviously transform, to fly, overdrive or any other function, as a classic MIB car should do, but they push the transformation almost to a Transformers level, in the last scene, it takes almost 10 seconds for the car to change into fly mode, while in the original movies, a reactor got out of the boot and that was enough, they here felt the need to make the whole trunk disappear, move, change shape to, at the end, give us a badass planecar! No just kidding, the result looks more like a frail paper plane than anything else.[/spoiler]

I will not most certainly nor beg for a sequel, but I would not spit on it either. I only wish I could see more Agent H and less Agent M in the future.
Idea for a future movie: a bridge between the "real" MIB movies and MIB International where Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) and Agent T (High T, Liam Neeson) fought together as field agent a few years/decades back, with, why not, young Agents L and H making a cameo...

And of course, last but not least, I loved Pawny, he's cute, fun, badass and put a lot a fresh air in the movie. He's probably the one who made me laugh the most, from his very first appearance, i wanted to see him more, and I still do!

In the end, I enjoyed watching this movie, I had some fun, it was a occasion to dive back into one of my favorite sci-fi franchises. The movie was not really freshly original, nor the actors fitting in, but I can not qualify this movie as a bad movie, it an OK movie, tasteless compared to the rest of the franchise but an interesting entry for the younger generation who might not have been there in 1997 to watch Agent L and Agent K making there debut on the big screen.

I give it a 6.5, and just because of Pawny, I'll round it up.

'Men in Black: International' done more for me than anticipated, it makes for a fairly good reboot in my opinion. Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson reteam up (after the MCU) to solid effect, with Liam Neeson and Kumail Nanjiani in as sturdy support.

The plot does take an extremely obvious trajectory, there is nothing to work out as the viewer in this one. That isn't a thing that bothers me personally, a film can still be suitably entertaining and this is that. Still, it is lacking that necessary extra oomph to become something greater.

As for special effects, it is a mixed bag. For the aliens and all that it looks pretty good, it done the job for me anyway. However, some of the locations do look quite bad; e.g. Paris at the beginning. It evidently didn't affect my enjoyment, it is distracting when it rears its head though.

My biggest problem with Men in Black is that they tore down the world they had built with the first three movies. For example, right at the beginning, when the subway transforms. Why? It’s only used and seen by agents. On the other hand, it shines so brightly through the water that everyone would notice it. When will film studios understand that these little details are what turn a mediocre story into an excellent one?

_Men in Black: International_ is an enjoyable movie that doesn't quite reach the same heights as the original trilogy, but still manages to deliver a fun and entertaining experience. The special effects are impressive and add to the movie overall. Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson both deliver strong performances, and their chemistry is evident throughout the film. While the plot may not be as strong as the previous movies, it's still engaging enough to keep you interested. Overall, a solid addition to the franchise, and fans of the series will appreciate the movie's effort to capture the spirit of the original trilogy.
