synopsis
Kay and Jay reunite to provide our best, last and only line of defense against a sinister seductress who levels the toughest challenge yet to the MIBs untarnished mission statement: protecting the earth from the scum of the universe. It's been four years since the alien-seeking agents averted an intergalactic disaster of epic proportions. Kay has since returned to the comforts of civilian life while Jay continues to work for the Men In Black, the highly funded yet unofficial government agency that regulates all things alien on earth. While investigating a seemingly routine crime, Jay uncovers a diabolical plot masterminded by Serleena, an evil Kylothian monster who disguises herself as a sexy lingerie model. When Serleena takes the entire MIB building hostage, there is only one person left Jay can turn to-his former MIB partner who is now a drone in another large government office, the U.S. postal service, and prefers simple pleasures like his wife's cookies over standoffs with mammoth alien insects. It's a race against the clock as Jay must convince Kay-who not only has absolutely no memory of his time spent with the Men In Black, but is also the only living person left with the expertise to save the galaxy-to reunite with the MIB before the earth submits to ultimate destruction.

Those secret but brave MIB agents are back in action, and this time they have to stop an alien disguised as a beautiful underwear model from destroying the Earth.

Story

Get ready for some more alien fun. When we last saw Agent Jay (Will Smith), he was a greenhorn in the ways of the Men in Black organization--the highly funded yet unofficial government agency that polices all things alien on Earth. His mentor and partner Agent Kay (Tommy Lee Jones) decided to call it quits and had his memory… Continued

Michael Jackson's cameo is the scariest thing in Men in Black II, and Jacko is not even playing an alien. Nothing else about this enjoyable if so-five-years-ago sequel to the rectum-kicking comic fantasia of summer 1997 will catch you off guard. What the ads promise -- same planet/new scum -- the movie delivers. Conceived in greed (it took this long to get MIBII made because Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones were hammering out paydays and back-end deals), the sequel is more mechanical than… Continued
