*Whine* I liked Men in Black: International, but I really wanted to love it. I think the problem is I compare it to the Will Smith/Tommy Lee Jones version which was better. Jones was the perfect straight man to Smith's comedy. That was missing from the Hemsworth/Thompson pairing. They didn't have the right chemistry. And Pawny seemed like a gimmick for the kids.
And it moved a little slow compared to the original...
I don't know if I can give this a fair review because I can't stop comparing it to the original. So if you haven't seen the previous movies then it might work for you. If you have...Chris Hemsworth is a beautiful man and a joy to watch no matter what the movie is like.
My husband and I give it 3.25 "pink pants wearing" Sheep

We saw it this weekend too. Both of our reactions was 'meh". Been there and done that many, many times. There were no "WOW!" moments.
ReplyDeleteChris and Tessa are good, but true, the dynamic is not as combustive as Will and Tommy Lee's. There are also certain things that don't make sense within what info. we're given. I'd give it a straight 3.
You're right...I added the extra 1/4 star for Chris Hemsworth in pink pants ;)
