I will admit up front, the entire MIB series are favorites of mine, and maybe--just maybe--that is because the two leads are among my very favorite living actors. Tommy Lee Jones is so delightful in these films, and this third one takes J and K to new territory that is a most wonderful surprise at the end.
And Will Smith--what can I say? He's just awesome.
While I thoroughly enjoyed MIB 2, I was a bit let down. But I chalked that up to the typical decline of quality with any movie's sequels. However, MIB 3 is, in my opinion, on a par with the first film. Mind you, it is imperative to have seen the previous two MIBs before seeing this one, or much of what makes it so great will be lost on you.
What I loved: the hilarious neuralyzer memory plants, the historical personas tied to MIB, the fabulous jokes about the 60s and 70s, and, of course, the surprise emotional content.
What I didn't love: Hmm. I'll be...I can't think of anything. Of course I could try to come up with something, but why spoil things? I don't watch any MIB film to have a thought-provoking, intellectually stimulating evening. I watch them to have fun, laugh, and ogle the men. Sometimes that's all I really need.
If you're a fan of the first MIB, this sequel is MUST SEE.
