I watched this yesterday hoping for some fun.

Well - there's no real fun - it's just super bland.

The chemistry between the two leads was completely missing here - and we *know* they had it in Thor Ragnarok.

There are jokes and sayings here that depend on something being set up and called back - but they NEVER set any jokes up.

Liam Neeson is no Rip Torn or TLJ.

The two twin guys (Les Twins) who are the "bad guys" take the form of a shop keeper they kill - but for some reason they change their hair so we can tell it's a set of twins and not a one guy cloned.

And of course they have a scene where those guys have to dance.

There was little world building here - it was much more effective in the original MIB.

What was good? Some of the effects - especially the twins in their non human form looked super cool.

If you're 8-14 year kid has little imagination then they will love this movie. Otherwise just show them the original.
