Wild Wild West wants to be
Men In Black so badly. It's coming two years after those galaxy defenders showed up on multiplex screens across the world and broke tons of box office records and tried to replicate that movies financial success by reuniting the star and director of that film (Will Smith and Barry Sonnenfeld, respectively) in another heavily stylized action/comedy romp. This time, though, they were going to be working in the Western genre adapting the classic TV show
Wild Wild West into a major motion picture and Smith would be paired off against Kevin Kline. The results were less akin to
Men In Black and instead more along the lines of
Men In Black II.
