Men in Black 3 (Blu-ray)
Description
Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones reprise their roles as Agents J and K in this third instalment of the sci-fi action comedy. Agent J (Smith) has long been every bit as perplexed by the perpetually-surly countenance of his older partner, Agent K (Jones), as he has been by the variety of aliens the pair are charged with keeping under control. However, when alien forces assassinate K with such extraterrestrial efficiency Agent J seems to be the only person to believe that K hasn't been dead for 40 years, the younger man is at a loss and determines to get his partner back. With the aid of a terrifying 'time jump', Agent J travels back to MIB's early years in the 1960s. Here he hooks up with a younger Agent K (Josh Brolin) and attempts to prevent his death and change the course of history. Will he also learn a thing or two about the secrets of the universe the older K kept so close to his chest?

- Synopsis
- The MEN IN BLACK are back, and this time Agent J (Will Smith) must take a trip into the past in order to save both the future and his taciturn partner Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) in the third installment of the hit sci-fi comedy series. After 15 years of working with aliens from all across the cosmos, Agent J is sure he's seen it all. But just when he's getting the hang of the game, he learns that history has inexplicably been rewritten. In this new timeline of events, Agent K has been dead for 40 years, and Earth will soon come under attack from an extraterrestrial force with the power to claim the entire planet. Now, in order to set the past straight and head off an invasion of epic proportions, Agent J must travel back to the year 1969, when Young Agent K (Josh Brolin) was just a fresh new face on the force. But Agent J only has 24 hours to find the source of the coming catastrophe and discern how his longtime partner ties into the situation -- should he fail he'll be stuck in the past forever. Jemaine Clement, Alice Eve, and Emma Thompson co-star.

- "[T]he perfectly cast Brolin conveys hints of playfulness and warmth while staying true to the craggy stoicism at the character’s core."— Nathan Rabin (24 May 2012, )
- Box Office
- 3 stars out of 5 -- "Brolin is an excellent, unflappable replacement for Jones."— Vadim Rizov (22 May 2012, )
- Chicago Sun-Times
- 3 stars out of 4 -- "It has an ingenious plot, bizarre monsters, audacious cliff-hanging...and a closing scene that adds a new and sort of touching dimension to the characters of J and K."— Roger Ebert (23 May 2012, )
- Entertainment Weekly
- "Among the many pleasures of MEN IN BLACK 3 is the nimble efficiency with which the movie reestablishes the old MIB conventions -- all those fabulously ornate Rick Baker-designed creatures, all that Jones crustiness and Smith slickness..." -- Grade: A-— Lisa Schwarzbaum (1 Jun 2012, )
- Hollywood Reporter
- "[Featuring] the jewel tones of Bill Pope's appealing cinematography. Other production elements, like Danny Elfman's score, continue the winning look and feel established in the first film."— John DeFore (21 May 2012, )
- Los Angeles Times
- "[Sonnenfeld] has recovered some of the brashness and all of the unbridled affection for the weird, wonky otherworldly types that made the initial 1997 cosmic comedy such a kick."— Betsy Sharkey (25 May 2012, )
- Rolling Stone
- "What works, like comic hellfire, is the casting of Josh Brolin as the young Agent K. Brolin's take on Jones' deadpan delivery is spot-on and spectacularly funny."— Peter Travers (24 May 2012, )
- USA Today
- "[I]t's Josh Brolin, as the young Tommy Lee Jones, who steals MEN IN BLACK 3....He channels Jones' mannerisms, nails his Texan drawl and even rather eerily resembles the actor..."— Claudia Puig (25 May 2012, )
