Synopsis: Agent J travels back in time to keep his partner Agent K from being assassinated by a time travelling alien.

My only gripe with this movie is that my dog wasn't in it. Seriously, where the hell is Frank? There's a huge poster of a pug above J's bed and you see on the ad for the Coney Island carnival that there's a talking pug, but they never show him. What is up with that??

Personal issues aside, this movie is pretty decent. It's got a lot of sweet special effects and new gadgets. If you've seen the trailer, you know about the cool looking future cycles. Well, they're even better when watching them whip through the streets of New York in 3D. The movie is full of action - there's the aforementioned cycle driving, large scale gun battles, and some sweet hand to hand(s) combat. There's also some other pretty sweet effects related things going on that any fan of the other MIBs will definitely enjoy.

The cast in this movie is also awesome. Obviously, you have Will Smith who is one of the funniest people alive in my opinion and definitely one of my favorite actors and can pretty much do no wrong in my eyes (I even liked him in Wild Wild West). Then there's Tommy Lee Jones reprising his role as Agent K masterfully, and you've got Josh Brolin playing a younger Tommy Lee Jones and his performance is fantastic. You've also got Alice Eve and a cameo by Nicole Scherzinger who are both incredibly attractive, which never hurts any movie in being more fun to watch. The dialogue and character interaction is awkward but funny at times, but always very entertaining. The story has some great twists and the ending is really quite interesting. Just go watch it and find out for yourself.

You don't need to see it in 3D, but the part where J jumps off the building to time jump, is almost worth the extra money for 3D in itself. And I already mentioned the future cycle scene. Obviously, there's other stuff in there that the 3D makes pretty good use of. I think in general, Hollywood is getting better at using 3D. It's almost becoming worth it to pay the extra cash for every movie to see it. That being said however, it's not essential to the enjoyment of this or really any movie. Movies that are good in 3D are still good in 2D ... except maybe Final Destination 5, but that's another blog entry altogether.
