Men in Black 3

Actors:  Tommy Lee Jones, Will Smith, Josh Brolin, Emma Thompson, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jemaine Clement
Rating:  7 out of 10, This was better than I expected and very entertaining. This recaptured a lot of the magic from the first film that was lost in the second film.  Sending Smith back in time to prevent Jones’ assassination made for an interesting plot. A wise cracking African-American didn’t play as well in the 1960’s and led to some really funny moments.  Both Smith and Jones looked a little tired with their roles, obviously just in it for the checks they got to cash. The real revelation was Josh Brolin who was channeling Tommy Lee Jones as a young man so well it actually approached being scary. An actor named Michael Stuhlbarg was extremely good in a small part as an alien who could see the future, kind of.  Good movie, well worth a watch.
MVP:  Stuhlbarg as Griffin the gentle and well meaning alien future forecaster
