MEN IN BLACK II (2002) MOVIE REACTION - THIS IS NOT WHAT WE EXPECTED - FIRST TIME WATCHING - REVIEW
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 авг 2024
- Welcome to our first-time watching as we rect to Men In Black II (2002). The long anticipated sequel to "Men In Black" is not what we expected.
In "Men In Black II," Agent J (Will Smith) must bring back his former partner, Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones), to stop an evil alien named Serleena from taking over the universe. Although there were some outrageous alien encounters, hilarious moments, and high-octane action scenes this film did not meet the same standards the first one did.
We hope that you enjoy our reactions, commentary and review as we discuss the incredible special effects and the witty banter between Smith and Jones. It's always a great time when you have both of them on screen.

Definitely a mixed bag but they really redeemed themselves in the third movie. And they really found the perfect new co-lead for it. He portrays the role immaculately. 😉
do MIB III too and also the continuation of Pirates of the Caribbean and please continue the other Lethal Weapons too , they're all good.
you will love the third one, it equals the frst one if you're looking for character developement, this third installment has it
The line, “It came with a black dude but he kept getting pulled over”, was ad-libbed by Wil Smith on the spot. Tommy Lee wasn’t expecting it and it took all his will power not to bust out laughing. The director loved the reaction and kept the take in the film.
Will also ad-libbed the "Raining black people in NY" line in the first movie lol glad he had room to inject his own charm
yoo i never knew that LOL
@@AnimalAlmightythat’s what’s amazing about good ad-libbing, is you can’t even tell it’s ad-libbed by the actor/actress because it fits the character perfectly.
RIP to Biz Markie, the rapping/beat boxing alien at the Post Office.
He was just a friend..RIP
That line "it rains because you're sad baby " always gets me...😢
For those who don't know, the ending for this film was entirely reshoot because it was supposed to take place at the Twin Towers. Due to 9/11 the studio decided to do rewrites and reshoots.
I believe I heard that this is why Johnny Knoxville just kind of disappears. They couldn't use his death scene.
@@TenTonNukeBruh no way, I bet he fell out a window
17:49 fun fact: the mail man that separates himself in half with the guy inside is actually the VFX director for the movie
It's so funny that MJ is basically doing an agent's job, but they won't give him the position for it
They couldn't erase his identity, even if they wanted to. Unless they faked his death and totally reworked his face to be nothing like him. Way too much work when people that they hire can just have some files deleted and that's it, because they're nobodies to begin with. When everyone in the world knows how you look and sound like, it's ridiculous to try.
@@raifthemad Wow, I never even thought of that, You're right, no one would hire someone recognized by the world if anonymity was part of the job.
@@raifthemadI agree.
Yeah, I agree MiB2 is a bit hit or miss but the chemistry between the leads is still there. Don’t let this sour you on watching MIB3, they close out the trilogy extremely well and I do think it’s the best of the trilogy
@@ChadB1988 we are relieved to hear that! Good to know they got back on track!
They did, I’ll be honest in saying I didn’t see the third film in the theaters like I did the first two and it wasn’t until years later that I watched it and after I was disappointed in myself for not seeing it sooner
@@ChadB1988have to agree with you! The third one was our favorite. Had a blast with it and they definitely got back on track 😃
@@OfficialMediaKnights Oh, you already watched the 3rd one? Y'all work fast! :D
@weepingscorpion8739 dang right!? 19h between comments is def enough time though haha
I just thought of something. They should totally make a MIB series about the adventures of rookie K to show us how he grew into such a badass agent. I totally would watch that
Maybe I got some good news for you. I really enjoyed the MiB animated series. Oh wait. You said K, not J. Here I was about to say it does a good job of that concept but the characters are flipped. Not even kidding man, I would really love that. It's what I'd love most from MiB, barring some new films that are good. I could take animated or live.
You might like the third movie then.
You could always watch the cartoon series.
Frank singing "Who let the dogs out" as a dog...dudeeee!!!!!👍😁
I definitely don't hate this film at all. It's not as good as the first, but it's positives still outweigh the flaws of the story. But Tommy Lee Jones is one who very seldom gets to express real and genuine emotions in his characters, and this was a perfect opportunity for him to do it more. I don't mind it being ambiguous as to whether Laura was K's daughter as I don't like being spoonfed in stories, but with what little interaction we got between him and Laura in the end, Tommy Lee Jones and Rosario Dawson had a great connection that should have been explored more earlier and could have added so much more depth to K's character. I'm really glad bringing him back at least served a point in the story and was the narrative was built around that aspect rather than just bringing him back for convenience-sake for J to have his old partner back.
Before Rocket Raccon there was Frank The Pug.
Men in Black 3 will bring it back! An excellent ending to the trilogy, and Josh Brolins performance is awesome.
The first Agent J zapped did the voice for Kronk in the Disney's Emperor's New Groove Cartoon!
The little girl in the post office scene was director Barry Sonnenfeld's daughter Chloe. She makes a second cameo appearance in MIB 3. She's easy to miss, but you should be able to recognize her when you see her in the third one. 😊
I wonder how many people saw Michael in the theater back in 2002 and said "I KNEW IT!"
That Biz Markie beat boxing scene is one of the most original and memorable ones in all the science fiction movies I've ever scene. It was so unexpected and I just love it.
I agree with you.
The second one is not as terrible as its own CGI, but is a step back from the first one.
For me the third brings back the right feelings (even if I think its villain is not that interesting, or menacing, compared to the others).
I'll look up for your reaction to that.
20:30 I might be wrong but I’m pretty sure that man with the ponytail is non other than Rick Baker! The man responsible for some of the most iconic practical effects in cinema history including American werewolf in London!
You're not wrong. I think it's a fun Easter egg of this movie. Industry pros in front of the camera. If you know, you know.
The Rapping Alien was portrayed by the late, great Biz Markie!!!!!
it does suffer from not-as-good-itis, but still a good movie in its own right.
MIIB is not as good as the first, but the third is DEFINITELY worth the watch. SO. GOOD. Glad you guys watched it…. Excited for it to be up on RUclips!
The 3rd film is so good and it wraps up the series in a sad but good way!!!!!
Yes.
Also, "International"doesn't exist.
34:30- That man in the middle is Barry Sonnenfeld, the director of the MIB trilogy.
And the little girl next to him is actually Tommy Lee Jones's daughter, Victoria!
He also had a similar cameo in his first The Addams Family movie, as a tiny man who finds himself on one of Gomez' toy trains.
MIB 2 is the pretty good MIB film you have to watch in order to get to excellent full of heart box of tissues at the ready MIB 3!
"A filler episode of a Men in Black show" is the best summary of this film I've ever heard. This is exactly the kind of mild, semi-predictable character story with a villain B-plot you expect from one of many episodes of a show, but not what could be, like you said, the last shot you ever get at a full cinematic release. It's not that there's anything necessarily WRONG with what they did....it just really doesn't do anything to take advantage of the scale of the medium available to it.
MiB3 is like the antithesis to that, though. I thought MiB2 was decent....then I saw MiB3 and realized just how far of its full potential it really fell. MiB3 feels like everything MiB2 should have been. At the end of the day I'm just glad they got the opportunity to squeeze it out, because like others have said, it's easily my favorite of the three.
Yeah. We also get more of K's backstory, which is what Ari wanted.
i don't think K was her father as they had little time together - if you think about the start of the movie, but he did have feelings for her and took care of her daughter as she dies at the beginning. MIB 3 is even better and you should enjoy it as it does give a lot of back story to K.
More of a godfather figure I feel what K was to Laura..
It's not different how he feels towards J. If you get my drift on that notion 😢
Kay called her "baby." That's not a term one uses for the child of a friend. He looked at her like a father and his reticence to speak of what happened tells us all we need to know.
@@Falcun21 I can agree with that too 😢
As with most sequels to box office hits, it's a bit too aware of its audience. It pays too much fan service. It allows itself to be so confident in its brand that it becomes slapstick with how little they try to keep it believable.
The good news is that part 3 is actually a good movie. It makes a solid attempt to build on the lore instead of just going, "Hey, guys! Remember the dog? Remember the alien whose head grows back? Remember the cockroaches?"
yes this one is a bit rushed but they definitely make up for it in MIB 3
I never realized that till now but now I’m seeing this reaction with the movie the script felt a little rushed.
34:30 That is the director himself, Mr. Barry Sonnenfeld. He makes cameo appearances in every single movie he has ever made. 😁
Did you recognize the guy with the glasses at the video rental. That's the same guy that got stuck to the ceiling by the bug alien in the first movie.🤣
33:15 you might’ve missed that when he is going to talk to his mom he was carrying a shovel, so maybe not for the better for her
Yay, someone else noticed that. Kinda dark-lol
it's funny that Peter Graves made the intro. Her was the team leader in the Mission Impossible TV Show..a secret service show. :-)
The man introducing the VHS at the beginning is Peter Graves - Captain Oveur in Airplane and the OG Jim Phelps in Mission: Impossible. Shame they couldn't get back Linda Fiorentino from the 1st MIB. This one feels like it's copying the 1st ones homework.
dunno if they had anything to do with her. even the animated series basically sidelined her character into a support role as Agent L.
Didn't have the same feeling as the first but I still love it. So ready for 3, I think they did 3 perfectly.
The first one is an impeccable set up for the MIB universe, the second one builds very well on J and K’s relationship.
The 3rd one is by far my favourite
Next one is quite possibly the best Men in Black movie.
i’m probably in the minority who prefer serleena as a villain as opposed to edgar from the first. she had sass and looked fabulous. lol
I kinda like her character, then I remember she made filming kinda troubling for everyone (as she did post-Twin Peaks)
i like her too, youre not alone
The issue isnt her character its how short her screen time was they could have fleshed her out alot more the way they did it made her seam insignificant and un-noteworthy, whereas edgar felt overpowering and in control up to the very end.
Tony Shaloub is so fantastic as Jeebs, quite a change from MONK.
I also loved him in Galaxy Quest.
I loved Frank in this in that adorable suit!❤❤❤❤❤
You guys should check out "Lucky Number Slevin" Lucy Lui, Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman. One of my favorite movies.
Always a joy to watch your reactions to movies I love how positive & upbeat you both are & your post movie discussions deliver excellent explanations on the likes/dislikes.
One of my favourite reaction channels.
They tried to cash in too much on the jokes and silliness instead of having a good story to tell. Good thing the third one has more heart at the core.
@@kdot8340 Well, they do tell better stories in the first and third movies in my opinion, so there is proof that even these same filmmakers are capable of doing better.
Fun fact, the post office worker with the big ears (and his isolated top half) is this film's VFX director! He has a very funny story about them looking for a crew member who "looked like an alien" to fill that extra slot-
"Connecting to the characters more" you say? K's past? Well then, you're in for a treat in the third and final installation of this epic trilogy! 😊
MIB 3 MAKES EVERYTHING MAKE SENSE.
11:59 didnt remember Nick Cannon 😂
I was wondering if that was him. Thx now I don’t have to look it up.
If you want another law enforcement comedy. See if you can find Dragnet with Dan Aykroyd and Tom Hanks.
I can't believe I never noticed the constant pie references in MIB II. 😂 I wonder if they were already setting up the stage for the third movie in this one.
Fun fact : The liitte girl in the post office is the director daughter. She will also appear in the 3rd film, as a Hippie girl
33:15 Aww, I'm hopeful y'all didn't miss the best joke in the movie.
Yeah, make the world a better place just as he is going Norman Bates.
U guys will love the 3rd one I feel like it redeemed itself
Just wait until MIB III!
MIB2 is different , but the feel of the first is still here. I wasn't very much liked when it first came out , but the reception has gained a good following since and more than a worthy sequel
It is always hard to make a sequel better than the first. The Alien franchise was an exception. Speaking of the Aliens franchise, I am eager to see your response to the new Ellen Ripley in Alien 4.
I know Alien 4 is very divisive, but I do love to see reactions to it.
12:20 audience loved Frank the pug from the first one so much they gave him a bigger part in this one. They actually used the same dog from the first movie and they had to use make up to hide his grey fur cuz it was 6 years later lol
13:04 my dog actually did that once. Rolled his head on the car window by himself lol
17:05 Will would beatbox in between takes and the director heard him and wanted to put it in the movie lol the guy he's beatboxing with is making all those sounds himself which doesn't make sense with the way his mouth moves lol
16:29 I think the photo is the same they used in the tabloids at the end of the first movie. He’s got the same head tilt and smile.
The next one will bring it full circle!
2 is definitely the weakest of the trilogy. But OH BOY I CANNOT WAIT till you guys get to 3. It's just mwah absolute chefs kiss 🤌🏻🤌🏻
The narrator is Peter Graves, Mission Impossible, Gunsmoke’s James Arness’ brother.
I can guarantee that the ending of MIB 3 is one of the best endings to any trilogy you’ve ever seen. There’s no need to react to the fourth. It was a failed moneygrab.
The whole “I Will Survive” but by Frank made me think you should check out the sports movie, “The Replacements”. Highly Recommend!
MEN in Black III should of been titled Return of the King. And had Elvis come back and saved the Earth. Thank you! Thank you Very Much! Elvis is now leaving the Planet..AGAIN!!
I love that J watches out for people when they nuralize (sp?) them …. Shows the character is a fundamentally nice person
Some other films you should check out:
Jumpin Jack Flash (1986)
Johnny Mnemonic (1995)
Evolution (2001)
Dark City (1998) - This film is often cited as being the film that inspired the Matrix.
Outbreak (1995)
Willow (1986)
Dog Soldiers (2002)
The Family Man (2000)
Jumping Jack flash is brilliant
Cloak and dagger also
Solid list. I thought I was the only one who likes Johnny Mnemonic.
@@RaptorNX01 Ah, Cloak and Dagger (1984) I haven't watched the film in a very long time. Was a favourite of mine when I was young.
I think that every movie including International were fantastic entries in the series that each played heavily to what was popular at time of release
Sadly this was Rip Torn's last MIB film.
Lol at 4:44 “Get that digestion goin’ ya know?”
Hi Ari and Denise I enjoyed your reaction to men in black 2.
Can't wait for you to react to Men in black 3 it's, my favorite one.👨🏿💼😎👽
A mixed bag for sure, but still a lot of very fun moments!
When are you going to react to more jurassic park and the world trilogy some people don't like jurassic world but I do 😊
They did expand in the story. Between the first on and the second one they did release a couple cartoon series. But only those that watched cartoons on Saturday mornings would have known that.
Fun fact: That "Video Store" woman who wanted a
I don't know about everybody else but I think the third one is my favorite MIB 3
i like this woman so much
This movie was on HBO all the time back in 02/03 along with Eight Legged Freaks.
My favorite line in this one is Yea every Saturday night you’d be like, “FLUSH ME J FLUSH ME” I be like “Nah”
The biggest weakness of this film is that's a beat-for-beat rehash of the first movie: The good-guy aliens hide something on Earth, the bad-guy aliens come looking for it, and the Men in Black are in a race to find it before Earth blows up-- not by the bad aliens, but by the "good" aliens who would rather murder billions of innocents rather than have the MacGuffin fall into enemy hands.
Same story-- two movies.
the father of the family in the house is the director of the movie Barry Sonnenfeld :D
I thought this movie was so cheezy at first but now i love it.
MIB is my fav scifi universe by far!!!
Shoot i never realized that was nick canon at 12:00
As someone that grew up with the movies. Prepare yourselves for MIB 3.
Definitely need to finish the saga third one. It really good.
Keeping the reaction fun while keeping the "meh" until the end (but leading with it) is pretty solid. Good job you two!
I never thought I would be watching someone watching movies when i could just watch them myself 🤣 but the content is awesum, your chemistry is spot on and yeah keep it up ❤ oh and give No one lives with luke evans a go 😊😊
Third one will bring you guys back in. It really ties it up well!
I feel the same about MIB2 it’s my least liked out of the series. On a good note absolutely love MIB3 and can’t wait for guys to watch it.
Part 3 is definitely the best one
I agree its not as good as the 1st, but its an alright film anyway, but id honestly say the 3rd is better than the 2nd, Time travel is involved, and Josh Brolin acts like a younger Tommy lee Jones so well, its actually crazy
🔔 TMK @ 34:29 FYI ➡ THAT'S THE DIRECTOR SITING ON THE COUCH!
I still remember the marketing factor of that movie and the soundtrack especially. Schools here were doing dance competitions to that damned themesong.
Frank, the pug reminds me of donkey from shrek hahaha. Especially the singing part.
The guy attempting to attack Serlena in the beginning is Micheal Bailey, he played the demon Balthazar in the 90s Charmed, also Ajax, an assassin on the show.
I never realised there were some familiar faces in the subway train at the start, like Gene LeBell.
Love both of you, great reactions
Agree that they missed the opportunity to display the depth of the characters and K's connection to the princess. If they leaned into that, it would have made a greater movie. Also thanks for the shout-out (if it was me) it took me by surprise!
The shoutout was indeed for you Phoenix! Thank you for your support and your generosity. Exactly! Wished we got some more backstory instead because to us that was way more interesting than what was going on.
@@OfficialMediaKnights Please make sure to watch the Men In Black 3. Please. A lot of reactors never watched it. Please make sure to put it in your schedule.
@divyanshsahai Dude, you gotta stop harassing them, I've seen you reply the exact same thing in a couple comments. I appreciate your enthusiasm for the movie and your desire to watch the media knights react to it, but repeating the same reply ad nauseum isn't going to accomplish anything.
So relax and be patient, and if they decide to react to it, all the better. If not, maybe learn a lesson.
@@divyanshsahai In another comment, they confirmed that they already have watched the third movie.
This movie was such a step down from the first; however, the third Men in Black movie is great and I know you guys will love it!
Plenty of people saying it, but MiB 3 was pretty good. I have some doubts the animated series is easy to find, but I would rec it for personal time or patreon. It might seem rough, but I grew to love it. Hey if not, there's at least two more films.
I'll be interested to see your reaction to the third film, guys. It's my personal favorite in the series. And you're right, this film wasn't received as well as the first film.
I think third one is the BEST one
