Men In Black - International

Men In Black – International is an action packed comedy starring Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson. It is a spinoff of the Will Smith originals. In this story the Men in Black have to work together to figure out who the mole is within their organization.

I thought that the plot was predictable but still engaging and fun to watch. The cinematography and soundtrack had a nostalgic feel to it. Additionally, the movie itself was definitely kid friendly making the jokes mediocre softballs.

The acting was good from the majority of the cast, I especially enjoyed Tessa Thompson in this role. I was also surprised to see some star-studded casting in Rebecca Ferguson, Emma Thompson and Liam Neeson. The only disappointment in the cast was the addition of professional dancers, Les Twins. They are amazing dancers but it didn’t make sense to have them in an actual role. The acting from them wasn’t that great and there was a lot of CGI used. I am assuming the director was trying to use their strength as dancers within their super powers but it just came off corny. I would have rather just seen them do a cameo as dancers than them have an actual part in the movie.

Overall, the film was cute and easy to follow. It was not something worth seeing in theatres but not bad if you are watching at home.
