Director: F. Gary Gray
Writers: Matt Holloway and Art Marcum (Screenplay); Lowell Cunningham (characters)
Release Date: 14th June 2019
Hot Rating: 💥💥
With the recent resurgence of Star Wars and Transformers films, producers have now revamped to the Men in Black franchise, a trilogy that was once lead by Will Smith and Tomy Lee Jones. This time around, however, the intergalactic narrative is lead by Chris Hemsworth (Agent H) and Tessa Thompson (Molly). Molly is a hopeful newbie in the force who finds herself paired with the experienced, yet immature, veteran Agent H. With a botched mission in their hands, and a suspected mole in the force, the two agents must set aside their differences in order to save the earth from a deadly weapon. The film is expectedly pleasant in its humour but remains held back by a bloated script and dependence on chatty slapstick as an excuse for originality. These shortcomings improve in the film's second half, where the action begins to move further afield, yet the pacing also loses restrains character development in favour of equilibrium. Audiences are left with the impression that perhaps we, too, should have been neutralised so that we may forget the failures of the beginning and focus on the improvements of the conclusion.
