Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

adonis98-743-186503 Agent J travels in time to M.I.B.'s early days in 1969 to stop an alien from assassinating his friend Agent K and changing history. I had the pleasure to see 'Men in Black 3' in theaters in 2012 and i had an absolute blast with this one. First of all whoever cast Josh Brolin as a young Agent K needs a huge hug because he did an amazing part, second of all Boris the Animal was a pretty damn cool villain and third of all Will Smith was once again hysterical as Agent J, Emma Thompson, Tommy Lee Jones and Michael Stuhlbarg were also excellent in their roles. The humor was once again spot on but it's also far more dramatic than the previous 2 films and it did hit me in the feels. MIB3 is a Blast!!! (10/10)

The Movie Diorama Let's face it, anything could've been better than 'Men In Black 2' in what is quite possibly one of the most boring sequels ever. A franchise hiatus and our beloved secret agents are back in another entertaining sci-fi adventure. Boris The Animal has escaped from a lunar prison and wants to take revenge on Agent K. What better way to do it than to erase him from time itself. However, Agent J still remembers him and must go back in time to save Agent K and the world from an alien invasion. Automatically have to deduct a point just for the use of time travel and not addressing paradoxical elements. It's a lazy uninspired gimmick and is only used decently in a quarter of good sci-fi flicks. In saying that, the 'Men in Black' aesthetic appeal still remains. It's as if this sequel was made in the 90's and I appreciated the need for continuity. It wasn't overly dark and depressing, t'was a light fun romp that everyone in the family can enjoy. But, that's all it is. Don't go into this wanting to be blown away by another revolutionary plot, it is something we have seen numerous times in the past. The narrative was good, very well paced. Several occasions of going to point A to B to C etc. which introduces an array of humorous characters like an undercover Andy Warhol. Boris The Animal was a memorable antagonist who literally could've decimated Agent K and J easily. Seriously. He kills everyone else with ease. But I suppose we wouldn't have ourselves a feature film then. Tommy Lee Jones needed far more screen time. Will Smith was Will Smith. The stand out, and most revelatory casting choice in years, is Josh Brolin as a young Agent K. He got Jones' mannerisms down to perfection. Thoroughly enjoyed his performance. Dare I say I wanted to see more of Scherzinger as well? The visual effects were fine, the human CGI has dated pretty badly but on the whole it is watchable. A good and enjoyable sequel, that for some reason addresses racial stereotypes...!

Peter Miller (pitabox987) Writing from the perspective of someone who's seen and enjoyed the first two Men in Black movies, I'd have to say this is easily my favorite of the three.I noted that a lot of reviews criticize this movie for breaking the mold of being a straight comedy film, but I honestly think it's broken that mold very well, whilst still maintaining plenty of funny scenes. It also tells us more about the shared histories of the two main characters Jay and Kay over the the entire MiB time-line, going right back too Jay's childhood. It also has an interesting villain in Boris the Animal and great supporting characters such as Griffin.Overall it's story is very well portrayed and the way it ties into historic world events is very well done as well. It makes it a movie I will easily watch it again.

zkonedog The first two "Men In Black" movies were successful because of a simple Hollywood "formula": fun. By combining goofy aliens, cool gadgets, great acting, funny sight gags, wise-cracking humor, and enough of a plot to actually make you care about all that is transpiring, those movies were so genre-diverse that one almost can't help but find something to like. After a ten year break from the action, however, there was no guarantee that the lightning could be caught in the bottle once again for MIB3. Luckily, this film not only proves itself worthy, but actually clocks in as the best installment in the series to date.For a basic plot summary, MIB3 sees a rogue alien escape from captivity and, through time- travel, wreak havoc on the MIB organization by causing Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) to no longer exist. As such, Agent J (Will Smith) must travel back to 1969 in order to set things straight, along the way meeting up with the younger K (Josh Brolin).Like its predecessors, this movie is just pure fun, through and through. The time spent watching it will fly by (no boredom here!) as every scene contains some interesting nugget, whether comically, emotionally, or just plain exciting. Essentially, MIB3 is the perfect balance between "summer popcorn flick" & "film series you truly care about". While humor, action, and adventure are present throughout the film, the ending of the movie even takes an emotionally-charged tone that will likely have you completely stunned and perhaps even pulling out a tissue or two.Of course, the acting within this film is probably what truly makes it a great experience, though. Will Smith slips effortlessly into his old "black suit" role, while Brolin is spot-on as the young K. Jones is, well, pretty much the same old Jones, but with an added character twist that really does help explain his character's gruff exterior.Simply put, MIB3 vaults this trilogy into serious consideration when considering the "greatest trilogies of all time" debate. It is pure fun, but with enough emotion to make you care about the characters. Even after 10 years away, the black suits are indeed still as fresh as ever!
