Mash up the trailers for Men in Black III and Moonrise Kingdom, and it becomes a nice little exercise in how much music and color impact mood. Interestingly, Men in Black III does have a nearly Wes Anderson-ish undertone of bittersweetness, particularly with the alien character played by Michael Stuhlbarg. So this mashup is not as far off base as it might be. »

Men in Black III, 2012.
Directed by Barry Sonnenfeld.
Starring Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin, Jemaine Clement, Emma Thompson, Alice Eve, Michael Stuhlbarg and Nicole Scherzinger.
Synopsis:
When Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) disappears, Agent J (Will Smith) has to travel back in time to the 1960s, where he teams up with a young K (Josh Brolin) in order to prevent history from being changed.
Sequels made years after the original can be hit and miss in terms of quality. For every The Color of Money, there is a Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, for every The Godfather: Part III there is a Basic Instinct 2. With a budget of $215m, an unfinished script when the film began production and some really terrible trailers and poster campaigns, Men in Black III looked like it was going to fail miserably as yet another needlessly belated sequel created just to fill »

Will Smith kept his Men In Black 3 director Barry Sonnenfeld on his toes while filming the new movie as he would frequently grab the filmmaker and wrestle him to the ground.
The pair has maintained a close friendship since shooting the first installment of the alien action comedy in 1997 and Smith often let loose on the set of the new sequel by messing around with Sonnenfeld whenever the cameras stopped rolling.
And Men In Black 3 co-star Michael Stuhlbarg admits their playful nature kept the cast and crew entertained.
He tells the New York Post's Page Six column, "Will was always grabbing him and wrestling around. They have a long friendship and it’s very funny and very eccentric, and you never know what is going to happen. Put them together, and it’s like a flash fire."
But Sonnenfeld hasn't always enjoyed his playful bouts with Smith - the actor accidentally knocked out the director during production on 2002's Men In Black II after attempting to show off his new fighting skills from filming boxing biopic Ali. »

Men in Black 3: Josh Brolin, Will Smith Starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, Men in Black III opened with solid though hardly outstanding figures at the North American box office on Friday. Directed by Men in Black / Men in Black II‘s Barry Sonnenfeld, the action / comedy / sci-fier will undoubtedly be this four-day weekend’s top-grossing movie — which means that after three weekends on top, The Avengers‘ reign at the domestic box office is over. But there’s no denying that MIB3‘s Friday performance fell below expectations, especially for a 3D movie budgeted at somewhere between $225m-$300m. Men in Black 3 collected $18m (including $1.55m from Thursday midnight screenings) at 4,248 theaters according to studio estimates found at Box Office Mojo. Bom’s Ray Subers predicts that Men in Black 3 will gross at least $70m — perhaps even reaching $80m — over the four-day weekend. Box-office prognosticators »

Men in Black 3: Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones The summer season at the North American box office isn’t exactly opening with a bang. Men in Black III debuted with hardly outstanding figures in the Us/Canada on Friday. Directed by Men in Black / Men in Black II‘s Barry Sonnenfeld, and starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, the action / comedy / sci-fier will undoubtedly be this weekend’s top-grossing movie — which means that after three weekends on top, The Avengers‘ reign at the domestic box office has ended. On the other hand, there’s no denying that MIB3‘s Friday performance fell below expectations, especially for a 3D movie budgeted at somewhere between $225m-$300m. Men in Black 3 collected $18m-$20m (including $1.55m from Thursday midnight screenings) at 4,248 theaters on Friday according to early, rough estimates found at Deadline.com.

(Our second review of Men in Black 3 after Adam Rayner’s earlier in the week)
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars
How many good “threequels” in a film series can people name? How about when the second film was already a turkey? What about when production reports suggested that the third film was partly shot without a completed script? The deck seems stacked against the cast and crew of Men in Black 3, yet with plenty to prove, Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones and director Barry Sonnenfeld mostly deliver the goods in this undeniably sketchy yet enjoyable seat-of-your-pants follow-up.
Going the time travel route for part three, MIB3 begins as Agent J (Smith) wakes up one day to find that his long-time partner, K (Jones) has apparently been dead for the last forty years. With the help of Agent O (Emma Thompson) – who fills in as Chief for the now-departed Agent »

As a movie reviewer, you try to set aside any preconceived thoughts you might have when you sit down to watch a film — even when said film has had a tumultuous path to the multiplex and seems preordained to be terrible. But, hey, you're only human. Still, you do your best.
No recent movie has had as tumultuous a path to the multiplex as Men in Black 3. And I admit, I went in thinking it was going to suck hard. (Hey, I'm only human.) But I'm happy, and somewhat amazed, to report I was wrong. Men in Black 3 might not be perfect, but it's a whole lot better than it has any right to be. In fact, it's pretty good...and, believe it or not, »

If you find yourself wanting to go check out Men In Black III film this weekend, I would highly recommend keeping your pajamas on and just watching the first one again. Regrettably the big budget film fails to ever find a fresh voice, even with the inclusion of Josh Brolin and Emma Thompson. It's not that the film was by any means insufferable, but if I'd like to think that in the ten years that has passed since the sequel, someone, anyone would have been able to come up with a better jokes about the alien universe. Oh Lady Gaga's an alien? How long did it take to come up with that one?
Even the stars themselves seem to be going through the somewhat convoluted plot with little enthusiasm. Will Smith made his fortune by being the sassy black guy and he seems to rest on his lorels of such. »

Men in Black 3 Directed by: Barry Sonnenfeld Written by: Etan Cohen, David Koepp, Jeff Nathanson, Michael Soccio (screenplay), Lowell Cunningham (comic) Starring: Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin, Jemaine Clement, Emma Thompson, Michael Stuhlbarg, Alice Eve, Bill Hader It's hard to believe that it's been a decade now since we last heard from Agents J and K. Although it's safe to assume that Earth still needs protecting from alien scum, after Men in Black 2 no one had been particularly eager to find out what else they had been up to. However, with Sony in desperate need of another summer blockbuster, we all knew it was only a matter of time before a third installment would be willed into existence. So now here it is: Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are back, along with director Barry Sonnenfeld, but are they all merely going through the motions? With »

Chicago – “Men in Black III” is such a soulless venture, a film made by committee that doesn’t display the touch of anyone with any remaining actual interest in the characters. In the pipeline for years, the film has been fine-tuned to the point that all of its personality was buffed out in the process. It’s well made (as a budget north of $200 million will do that for you) but to what end? There’s so little artistic merit to the piece that it doesn’t even qualify as popcorn entertainment.
Rating: 2.0/5.0
The problem is that “Men in Black III” is simply insufficient in whichever genre you want to place it. There are not enough laughs to call it a successful comedy. The science fiction is thinner than a ten-year-old could devise. And the action is as by-the-numbers as any blockbuster you’ll see this season. If not for a clever, »

Starring Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin, Jemaine Clement, Emma Thompson, Michael Stuhlbarg and Alice Eve
Directed by Barry Sonnenfeld
Rated PG-13
Ten years ago Sony Pictures had a broken franchise on their hands. Sure they probably eked out a small profit on that sequel, but the backlash from critics and audiences had told them that Men in Black was just a one trick pony. The funny thing about time, though, is that it clouds our memories. So some rising star in the Sony universe must have noticed all the re-booting that every studio was giving to their own tent-pole franchises and thought it might be a great idea for this one too. I bet they also asked for a huge promotion, the corner office, and a hot secretary. So off they went into the company vault and pulled out the dust collecting creation. Of course, »

Directed by: Barry Sonnenfeld
Cast: Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin, Jemaine Clement
Running Time: 1 hr 40 mins
Rating: PG-13
Release Date: May 25, 2012
Plot: Agent J (Smith) travels to the 1960s to stop an alien (Clement) from killing his partner Agent K (Smith) and taking over the world.
Who’S It For?: If this is something you’re actually worried about with a Will Smith movie, knowledge or strong memory of the previous movies is completely unnecessary. The only ones who should be cautious are parents – younger children might find Jemaine Clement’s villain to be quite disturbing.
Expectations: Having heard word of this film’s rushed production schedule, I was even more unsure about this movie’s entire existence. Exactly who ordered the second sequel to Men in Black? And what good to this earth would another Men in Black movie bring?

Men in Black II is one bad sequel. Everything the first film got right the second film painfully got wrong. Will Smith played Will Smith, the funny-for-two-minutes pug from the first film sang because someone thought it was funny, a two-headed Johnny Knoxville showed up for some reason, and Rosario Dawson was just, well, kind of there. That’s what the second installment was in a nutshell: “just there,” a limp and lifeless blockbuster. How does this 10-years-later sequel fare in comparison? Saying it’s a vast improvement is too easy, since even if this third installment is utterly banal, it’d still look favorable in comparison. For the most part, Men in Black III corrects past mistakes, even going as far to capture some of the original film’s magic. The film begins with Boris, played by an unrecognizable Jemaine Clement escaping a prison (which is on the frickin’ moon!). Once »

It may seem surprising but as a film journo, one of the more difficult elements of interviewing cast and crew, perhaps the most difficult, is getting the interviewee to give an original answer.
Even if you come up with a question they’ve never heard before, they’ll still more likely than not give you something fairly dull, and well-practiced, as before you get anywhere near them, they’ve been quizzed about the film by studio executives, coached by publicists and harassed by journalists visiting the set.
Even on the day of your interview, they will probably have been by at least fifteen people before you, each with their own variation on the same question. And that’s assuming you’re at the first junket for the film – a more likely scenario is that they’ve already done press for it around the world before they come anywhere near you. »
