alien vol.1

Rating: 8/10 (12 June 2019)

In 1997 this picture inspired on thousands of people. They've started watch summer premiers in cinemas.
'Cause for the first time of 90's we've seen something trivial mindless and satirical but nice and interesting.
Men In Black - old urban legend 'bout guys who investigates all the strange cases 'bout UFO and other alien kinda stuff.
And like every urban legend it fills with a lot of fantasies and speculations.
Fantasies made a funny story 'bout men in black.Originally it was failed comic book series.
But once Barry Sonnenfeld got this comic book and created the movie. Barry is an expert in making an absurd comedy. Before Men in Black he got piece of fame for Addams Family.
Men In Black has trivial narrative 'bout classic alien invasion but it uses one secret punch of every comedy and especially comedy buddy-movie. I'm talking 'bout characters of course.
K and J - they're cool guys which in Pantheon of Buddy Movie Characters forever.
K is cold man who dog-tired of restless life but everyone knows that he likes to laugh. And J - he's just a naÃ¯ve nice guy without doubts.
And certainly setting works for all narrative. MiB office is a chaotic place where aliens and agents are mixed together.
Men in Black is a powerful and funny movie and classical sci-fi comedy.
