That thing is disgusting.

Rating: 8/10 (1 October 2012)

It was worth the wait. Men In Black 3 is a worthy entry into the franchise. Too bad, that Tommy Lee Jones' screen time was so short, though.
Luckily, K's younger self, played with 100% conviction by the ever dependable Josh Brolin, was a magnificent casting decision. Who knew, that this guy would end up being a hell of a lot more revered than his father. As far as I can recall, James Brolin's only claim to fame is Barbra Streisand.
There is an abundance of good supporting parts in this one too. The guy who teaches J about time travel, and more importantly, that it's not such a great thing to be a black man in the 60s. The following scene doesn't work as well, though, where Smith is hassled by some not too enlightened cops. This is a PG-13 movie, so you can't go overboard with the racist remarks. Luckily Smith saves it by a great one-liner.
Speaking of Smith, the problem with the first sequel was that he basically had to carry the first part of the movie and the character got too arrogant at times. Here, he is still kind of arrogant, but he is quickly shown that he still doesn't know dick. That I like.
The one scene I absolutely could not stand was set in a restaurant. That fish gave me the creeps and I think that the scene borders on eastern bashing once again in an American movie. We are obviously free targets in Hollywood these days. Luckily, the scene is short.
All in all, there are some stunning sequences, even though you watch it in the normal format. I have always been a little wary about seeing features in 3D. There is some impressive stunt work, mostly done by the actual actors mixed in with some seamless visual effects work. So let's say that I hope that Men In Black 4 happens, but I think that I will be disappointed yet again. The premise is beginning to wear thin.
