VOD: Men In Black - International (dir: F. Gary Gray, 2019)

"Let's try this again, shall we?"

Kicking off the series of 2019 disappointing reboots/remakes is this underwhelming attempt to kick-start the MIB franchise without Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones (or even Josh Brolin), an enterprise that seemed doomed just by that fact alone.  Add into the mix a dull script, uneven effects and - apart from some scenic globe-trotting - nothing new and no surprises, the end result is quite a chore to sit through, even with the reliable Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson doing their best with very little.
