Men In Black III by Barry Sonnenfeld

one movie a day 

Men In Black III by Barry Sonnenfeld

Because Will Smith, that's why


A dangerous alien has escaped from a high-security jail. Then he has travelled in time to prevent his capture and the destruction of his people by agent K in 1969. J is now the only person to remember of K. In his turn, he travels through time to thwart the alien's plans

Initially, I was afraid that the series has lost its offbeat side. But we are quickly reassured with some funny references (wtf Andy Warhol?). The script takes a new direction and focuses more on J and K's relationship with an unexpected epilogue. Will Smith is quite good (but I like him very much so maybe I am biased, I confess). A special mention to Josh Brolin who plays Tommy Lee Jones's character younger (even if he can't be as poker face as his partner).

Sure, that's not a movie about the meaning of life. But made your mind empty and take my pop-corn
