Not as funny as the first MIB, but a better story.

People who are interested in a funnier, less serious movie may be disappointed in the latest MIB movie, but they shouldn't be. This is a well-acted well-told sequel that tackles some serious business, starting with memorial services for Zed (the late actor, Rip Torn). That makes for a slow start on a down note, but stick with the movie, because it gets better. The plot is not as complex as in movies like Inception or Primer, but it may confuse young viewers and even a few older ones. The way events fit in alternate history is well-crafted. James Brolin does an amazing job portraying a much younger agent K (normally Tommy Lee Jones), making the character believably consistent. The movie does a far better job of portraying the 1960s fashions and lifestyle than, say, X-Men First Class did. Again, not a laugh a minute, but a good, solid movie.
Pros great story, great actors, consistent with its own logic
Cons starts slowly, not as funny as previous mibs
Yes, I recommend this movie.
