Will Smith and Barry Sonnenfeld walk into a bar...
And that's how you get MIB 3. Ten years after Men In Black 2, and fifteen years since the very first movie, the 3rd installment of the sci-fi comedy is finally here. There's a bit more to it than walking into a bar, but pretty much, Will and Barry met up, and decided it was time. The movie actually came out back in May, but I was kinda busy back then, so never got around to seeing it until now.

Oh this? It's just my...um *FLASH*

If you haven't seen or for that matter even heard of Men In Black, first of all, where have you been for the past 15 years? Second, you should know that the 'Men in Black' are agents from a secret government organisation that deal with alien activity on and around Earth. The new movie ads time-travel in to the works, and sheds a lot of light on the characters' past.

Nothing funny, just a really cool picture

No, there's not a 3rd 'Man in Black', J doesn't get a new partner. That man on the left there, is young K from 1969. And its not Tommy Lee Jones in a mask, or with make-up, or a CGI face - it's Josh Brolin, and he pulls of the part really well. He's still got that serious, dead-pan, take-no-shit attitude, but at the same time, he is a bit more easy to get along with. J doesn't need a younger version of himself, mainly because he's the one going back in time, but secondly because that guy does not age. He's still a Fresh Prince.
As far as content goes, it's still typical MIB, which I love. Aliens everywhere, as though it's normal, from running a Chinese resaurant, to owning a bowling alley, and for the keen eyed, you'll even notice Lady Gaga on the alien surveillance screen at MIB Headquarters. There's some really exciting scenes, and full of the one-liners you'd expect. Overall, I think it's a great movie. It's got substance, not just another 'let's make a sequel', but it's still got that classic feel to it. I don't want to give too much away, so I suggest you just go and see it. If you're a fan of the first two, you'll love this one. By the way, there is a 3D version, just like every other movie coming out at the moment, but I'm still yet to see a movie using the so called 'better' 3D technology that actually is worth the money, so save some money and watch it in 2D.
