second half of the movie


did anyone else really find the second half of the movie really boring? Particularly when they begin looking for the alien boss guy? I felt the movie should of focused more on the MIB aspect and that it really didnt need a villan.

maybe there should of been a spy aspect to the movie. send will someplace foreign and have him gather info only to be captured himself. the movie starts well but to me, i found it went down hill really quick....

Your idea for the second half of the movie sounds even more boring than the actual movie! I thought the second half did slow down some, but that's not unusual for an action movie. Grab the audience with some big action in the beginning, move the story along in the middle, and finish with more big action. Pretty standard 3 act Hollywood formula, IMO. And a great movie!
