Men in Black: International is, more than any other film released this year, the pinnacle of “down-the-middle,” neither good nor bad, storytelling in 2019. It is a movie that simply exists and is there. It features plenty of moments of fun and enjoyment as well as plenty of moments of laziness and mediocrity. Luckily, Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson try their damnedest to bring some levity and energy to the final product and often succeed. For the most part, the film falls on two fronts: It doesn’t succeed in revitalizing the beloved sci-fi franchise it is a part of, but it doesn’t tarnish it either by any stretch of the imagination.
