Men In Black 3 (**1/2 out of ****)

This is probably the best film of the series. Like all "Men in Black" films it's a whole lot of fun but at times just fizzles and probably could have done better with a few tweaks to the script. Agent J (Will Smith fun as always) and Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) return as the odd couple law enforcers that deal with aliens instead of simple humans. J goes back in time to stop Boris the Animal (an unrecognizable Jermaine Clement) and teams up with a younger K (Josh Brolin with a perfect impression of Tommy  Lee Jones). Once again the partner use odd gadgets and battle Doctor Who like Aliens. There is a good amount of action and laughs to keep you entertained from start to finish. However the last twenty minutes seem like the writers just trying to wrap up in anyway possible. Smith and Brolin are a delight and make this worth watching even if this sequel seems a a few years too late to be very relevant.
