Men in Black 3 has a few good moments, but these are few and far between. The story simply fails to engage. There is a limit to the excitement funky looking extraterrestrials exploding into green mash can generate. It is a far cry from Men in Black 1.
Josh Brolin steals the show as a young agent K, while Will Smith takes care of the funnier moments and Tommy Lee Jones keeps a straight, even if a little too tired, face. Let’s hope Men in Black 4, no doubt coming next, will improve on this latest installment.
