Dalton Ross is an editor-at-large at EW and swears there are better pictures of him out there...somewhere.

One could accuse Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones of simply going through the motions in this sci-fi sequel, Men in Black II, but when in doubt, I always prefer to blame the singing pooch. Having a pug croon ''Who Let the Dogs Out'' while letting Michael Jackson cameo as an alien are just two of the cheap gags in Barry Sonnenfeld's stale and predictable follow-up. Sure, the effects are neat to look at, but, man, I hate that damn dog.
