invisibleunicornninja This movie is funny, entertaining, and well worth watching. The effects, action, and acting are all spectacular. Except for a few dumb plot devices this movie is perfect. It is extremely entertaining and worth watching. I would highly recommend this fun, well-made masterpiece.
beresfordjd Watched this film again on DVD this afternoon and was so impressed with it as a fun movie. Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones make a great team and put everything into it to make it a proper entertaining movie. The special effects are terrific and the supporting cast are great too. Vincent D'onofrio is particularly good as a human redneck taken over by an alien. He is scary and simultaneously funny too. The concept is terrific and while I am aware it comes from a comic source it works extremely well. It as surprised me that the producers have not sought to continue the movies as an ongoing series much like the Bond movies or the Superhero movies which are so prevalent these days. Diminishing returns maybe or a lack of good scripts -who knows?
sakram Men in Black is a franchise that turned a serious idea into a comedic, yet still-serious movie. Will Smith goes into action by joining this secret organization which seems to be the only status that knows about aliens, then yes, fight the villain who could cause Earth's destruction, or so it seems. It's not that simple. There are a few smart spots here and there I didn't notice only after willing to write this review.I laughed hard, and I definitely enjoyed it. 8/10
OneEightNine Media What can I say? This film is a classic. It came on AMC and I just had to watch it. Still, after all these years, it is such a unique movie. I don't even mind the sequels. The second film is okay but the third film is really well done. Still, nothing beats the original. Will Smith in his prime, Tommy Lee Jones right before his career started dragging. I can not say enough about this movie. One of my favorites for sure. This movie not only set the bar very high but also changed the game. Anyway, if you haven't seen this movie in a while it is worth a revisit. It is an offbeat film that is very much on beat. It take the term world-building to another level. It is crazy, it is fun but most of all it works well and is an actual movie as opposed to being just a bunch of random scenes pasted together.
