In my personal list of the best films i have seen in my life so far, "37°2 le matin" is sometimes placed in the top 10, sometimes below, but until now there are not enough films to replace it, even if it is now 15 years old.

A wonderful book by one of France's best authors was turned in into a beautiful film, one of the best, European cinema has created so far. Not even a bit old-fashioned, full of life, passion, tragedy, madness and love. A real classic. And i am not sure, it will be replaced in my top-list by another movie in the next years.

In a lot of cases the "II" is a kind of warning sign, of course with some praiseworthy exceptions. I should have read the signs in this case...

How can a director who has given us films like "The Addams Family", "Get Shorty" and of course "MIB" create such a sequel that sucks utterly? Where is the suspense, the humor, the quotable lines, everything that made "MIB" a pleasure to watch? The sequels screenplay could have been written on a stamp. In the 88 minutes of this film I had time to regret every single cent I spent on it. I can understand Agent L, who left the MIBs to work again in her mortuary. It is an improvement.
