Men in Black III




Rated: PG-13

Run time: 1 hour 44 minutes

Starring: Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones and Josh Brolin

I saw this in IMAX 3D, the movie was so good that I failed to pay attention to how good the 3D effects were, the IMAX was awesome as usual.

Two things, TLJ is definitely not one of those vain movie stars that have plastic surgery performed to look younger (because he looks older than dirt) and Josh Brolin must have studied Jones for a very long time (because he really pulls off his role of being a younger agent K). Mannerisms, voice, everything, he really has it down.

Will Smith is, well, Will Smith, fast talking, energetic and funny. This time, the bad guy is from K’s past and escapes from a prison on the moon. I didn’t even know we had a prison on the moon. Wonder what other kind of baddies we have stashed up there? Anyway, I like this bad guy the best out of the other movies. Although, “Edgar” from the first movie is a close second.

So Boris the Animal (played by Jemaine Clement) or as he says, “Just Boris” goes back in time to kill K and change history. J (Smith) must also go back and try and save him. Just like the other movies, the 3rd installment blends comedy, action and drama into an effective sci-fi adventure. We do learn some interesting things in this movie about our two main characters. For those of you who might want to stick around through the credits to see if the trend of a final scene exists, don’t waste your time. I did and there wasn’t one. Will there be a fourth movie? I don’t know, but if they do there are two things that will probably be for certain, Tommie Lee Jones will be chasing aliens using a walker and I’ll be in line again.

Bottom line, go see this movie even if you haven’t seen the first 2 films. Then go home and get them from Netflix or your other favorite movie supplier. Heck get them even if you have seen them, they’re that much fun.
