Men in Black III Review

Men in Black III had a high standard to live up to from it’s previous two movies and it didn’t let down. Like the two previous movies before it there were plenty of action scenes with what in my opinion was a clever plot. For fans of the Men in Black series this is definitely an awarding movie going back into agent K’s somewhat forbidden past to save him from his future. Will Smith played the main character of agent J who goes back in time to save his long time partner. Josh Brolin performed impressively as agent K as a junior agent. You may recognise Josh Brolin for his major role in ‘No Country for Old Men’ in 2007 along with Tommy Lee Jones who plays agent K in all three of the Men in Black movies. The movie has been nominated forteen choice awards for Will Smith’s performance and Josh Brolin’s performance. I really enjoyed Men in Black three, however you will have had to have seen I and II to understand the …

Film Review: ‘Men in Black 3’ is a fun action romp with some faults

After the hilarious ‘Men in Black’ and infantile ‘MIIB’, Agent J (Will Smith) and Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) are back in black, fighting and protecting aliens who have taken up residence on Earth. MIB head honcho X has died, and K makes a speech at his funeral, which J jokes contains ‘no emotion whatsoever’. We see Boris the Animal (“just Boris”) escaping from a moon-prison thanks to his girlfriend (Nicole Scherzinger donning her old Pussycat Dolls costume and carrying a cake) and vowing to go back in time and kill the MIB agent who took his arm (Agent K). This is where the film’s problems start. Boris is, in my opinion, one of the worst, most boring and annoying movie villains to appear on screens for several years. What happened to creating original, funny baddies for science-fiction movies instead of massive space-wasting aliens who say the same thing (“just Boris”) every single time they appear onscreen. Luckily, Boris appears in the film infrequently enough to not ruin it entirely. In fact, I was able to …

Snow White tops US weekend Box Office; MIB3 pushed to second

  Despite increasing fears that it might turn out to be another fizzle at the box office, Snow White And The Huntsman proved a little more resilient, snagging first place in the US this weekend with a decent $56.2 million. That forced Men In Black 3 down to second place, with the threequel earning $29.3 million in its second weekend, a relatively small drop of 46%. In third, current chart cash champ The Avengers scored $20.2 million despite having been out for five weeks. The movie is now up to $552.7 million in America and is the third highest grossing film in the worldwide rankings. Fourth place went to Battleship with $4.8 million and The Dictator rounds out the top five with $4.7 million. Sacha Baron Cohen’s latest has now made $50.8 million in the US. The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel continued to show real power among the indie releases, adding more cinemas and jumping back up the charts to sixth and $4.6 million. That put it ahead of What To Expect When You’re Expecting, which held on to seventh with $4.4 million and Dark Shadows, which fell …

Report: The Real Men in Black [TOP SECRET]

With the release of “Men in Black 3,” The Guardian takes a look at the folklore surrounding UFO sightings, specifically, the tales of black-clad men who were rumored to show up in the wake of such sightings to talk to witnesses and, one assumes, to cover up all those awesome secrets. Sadly, there really aren’t that many good UFO sightings any more. I remember watching the old “In Search Of” show on a UHF station out of Springfield, Mass. in the 1970s. The details have long escaped me, but I vividly recall host Leonard Nimoy talking about the Air Force’s “Project Blue Book“ and the Roswell incident. Here’s the nut graf from The Guardian’s story: In 1953, Albert K Bender, the editor of a UFO publication called Space Review, announced that he’d found the solution to the flying saucer mystery but had been forbidden to print it. He warned others working in the field to be cautious, and then stopped publishing. Later he said that three men wearing dark suits had told him to write no more about UFOs, and he’d obeyed them because he’d been …
