The time travel plot has a couple of glaring holes and the villain is severly underdeveloped, but the humor hits most of the time. Much better jokes than in the previous MIB. The visual effects are also impressive. It's a brisk film, with an overall fun tone. The added emotional revelation at the end was a nice touch and brings it closer to the level of the first MIB. |

Could Men in Black III possibly be good? It has been quite a while since the first one, which believe it or not, was back in 1997. Even the second one (which wasn't very good), was back in 2002. Ten years later, we now have the third, and it was surprisingly good. Will Smith doesn't look a day older, maybe he is an alien himself? The movie is full of the same great comedy as the first, and never gets boring. Watch for the little things, it can add further enjoyment. The story is good, even has things you might not expect. Men in Black III should continue to roll in profits during these summer months and turn out to be a blockbuster success. I think it is worth seeing in the theaters on a Saturday afternoon matinee. |

It is MIB finally |
|
Directed by Barry Sonnenfield
Starring Tommy lee Jones, Will Smith and Josh Brolin
Grade : B-
Barry Sonnenfield knows that if audience expects a crappy entertainer slightly ooish and frightening, then it would be men in black. Men in black are back again with another way too funny and perfunctory story. But this time, they are entertaining to the extent we will be satisfied. Whether it may be the rusty voices from Tommy Lee Jones or fast unstoppable Smith's voice, it makes a way. It is entertaining to the extent we would imagine. Not more than that. Never over done and nicely paced with good depth to characters.
It begins with Boris the animal (Jemaine Clement), escaping from a prison in Moon to rewrite history. He sets a plan to travel back to past, and kill agent K (Tommy Lee... |

Men in Black III review |
|
Boris the Animal (Jemaine Clement) tries to destroy mankind. Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) talks to Agent J (Will Smith). J then discovers that K was killed in action in the year 1969. Broslin did a good job portraying a young Agent K, which in effect reduces the role of Tommy Lee Jones. Soundtrack was good thanks to Elfman and script solid as always coming from Cohen. Effects were spectacular. Only reservations this reviewer had were the overdone formula (usage of time travel & 1960's era), lack of Frank the Pug and usual comical moments. The aliens and effects were more focused than the humor, which compromises the brilliance of the first, though this was way better than the last. Men in Black III is a somewhat entertaining sci-fi comedy that touches on the subject of compassion, ma... |

A must watch for the MIB fans. |
|
Anyone who has seen the previous two movies know that Men in Black is the state's secret police who handle extraterrestrial beings and are responsible for the public to stay ignorant of the existence of extraterrestrial visitors to Earth. Therefore when intergalactic criminal Boris the Animal (last surviving member of the predatory Boglodyte race) escapes from a maximum security prison located on the moon it is up to Agent J going back to the past to save his taciturn partner, Agent K, from being killed by Boris who is intent on killing The Agent who shot off his arm and captured him. With only 24 hours to stop Boris, J arrives a day before Boris kills K. He ends up back in 1969 where he runs into a younger version of K (Josh Brolin) and together they try to stop Boris once and for all in... |

Men in Black 3 movie review |
|
Well, it’s been ten long years since Agents J and K showed off their intergalactic protection skills in Men In Black 2, and given that the film didn’t exactly win rave reviews, you can’t blame anyone for being a little skeptical about the likelihood of a third installment being memorable. Luckily, I am always willing to give Will Smith the benefit of the doubt, and I’m happy to report that he and the entire cast made it worth my time.
THE GOOD: In order to go forward in this story, we have to go backwards….meaning time travel to the past; the summer of 1969, to be exact, when astronauts were preparing to walk on the moon and the Mets were poised to win the World Series. Another newsworthy event was Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) putting a foul looking alien by the name of Boris behind b... |

Early reviews have been kind an it looks like MIB III should bring about $75 million over the Memorial Day holiday weekend. And yes, The Avengers will finally fall to second place. I'll probably end up watching this either Sunday or Monday - look for my review. |

I agree that this will most likely be the lowest-grossing MIB film. However, this still looks better than the second film (based on trailers - I withhold final judgement until I've seen the entire movie). The I Am Legend this is going to be a prequel, right? I mean, he kind of
(SPOILER)
You know, died at the end. He is going to be in at least one original film - After Earth - so hopefully that turns out well. |

i'm not a fan of men in black. a few have been repeated on tv lately. but i cant seem to watch them longer than 5 minutes. silly movies. This one looks like money grab . i cant see it earning as much as the others. |

This is going to be the big film over Memorial Day weekend (though if I'm being truthful, Moonrise Kingdom looks really good - but I'm a Wes Anderson fan).
Does Will Smith still command enough summer blockbuster clout to finally dethrone The Avengers? I'm guessing this will open at #1 - somewhere north of $50 million. My biggest question is whether the 10-year gap between films will hurt the bottom line. Still, every time I see Josh Brolin essentially playing Tommy Lee Jones, it bring a smile to my face. I'll give this a shot, if only because sci-fi comedies are few and far between and I just like Smith and Brolin. |

I agree. Will Smith usually puts forth a good effort. I really liked the first, not so much the second. I can imagine how this script came about. Some big Hollywood hot shot was eating lunch with Josh Brolin and casually mentioned to him, "You know, my son told me at breakfast this morning he thinks you look a lot like a young Tommy Lee Jones...let's find a way to make money off that idea."
That it is coming out so long after the second doesn't bother me. Maybe it's taken the movie ticket buyers that long to forgive and forget. I'll see it after the first week if the reviews are decent. |
