: Men in Black III

I’m a fan of the original (not so much the sequel) and this one sounded awesome, with Agent J having to stop the murder of his partner K in 1969. It wasn’t quite as good as I’d hoped, but it is fun. The time travel plot is too linear and the resolution too simple, but the journey to get there is a lot of fun. There’s a decent amount of J and K interaction, though I would have enjoyed more. Meeting K in the past as a young agent is the real draw, and that was awesomely handled. My favorite thing was definitely the whole MIB organization in 1969 — just hilarious (like how the handheld Neurolyzer is a room-sized device). The villain’s too over the top for my liking, but it’s still fun to watch, and I had a great time. Definitely worth seeing if you’re a fan of the series.
