Men In Black 3 (2012)

Rating : Decent movie but lacking the spark of the first one.

Director : Barry Sonnenfeld (Men in Black Series, Get Shorty)

Cast : Will Smith (I am Legend, Pursuit of Happyness), Tommy Lee Jones (Lincoln, No Country for Old Men), Josh Brolin (True Grit, W.)

Story : When a dangerous escaped convict goes back in time and kills K, he puts the earth under danger of an alien invasion. It is up to J now to travel back and join forces with a younger K to stop this from happening.

Review : The first Men in Black was fun. It mixed comedy with good action. There was great chemistry between Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones. The special effects were top notch and the aliens innovative.

After the first part though the comic touch has been declining. In this part also there is not much to make you laugh though the makers have tried. They've tried to up the emotional factor to compensate for that but its not enough to get you hooked.

As usual the aliens are again innovative. Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones stick to their characters sincerely. Josh Brolin does a good job as a young K and looks the part. Unfortunately though he and Will Smith don't have the same bromance.

Overall a decent movie to watch if you are a fan of the franchise but nothing spectacular.
