Movie of the Week: Men In Black: International

[jacey]

The fourth Men In Black outing moves the action to London and Paris. No Tommy Lee Jones or Will Smith, I'm afraid, but with Chris Hemsworth.Tessa Thompson, and Liam Neeson as well as a cameo from Emma Thompson as O, it should have plenty going for it. Except, sadly, it doesn't. 

I have great respect for Liam Neeson as an actor, and Chris Hemsworth's comic timing is usually great, but this simply fell flat. Neeson seemed miscast and Hemsworth seemed to be dialling it in.

Only Emma Thompson provided the required charisma, but hers was a tiny role.

It wasn't terrible, but there was nothing fresh here. Go and watch the first one again.
