Where Did I See It? US-23 Drive-In Theater (Flint, MI)

Taglines? They are back... in time

I know I am a little bit late with this blog post, and for that I apologize. I recently saw Men In Black 3, and needless to say I wasn't disappointed. I have always loved these films, however after I saw the second one I was disappointed in the direction of them. Ten years later (Length of time between theatrical releases of MIB 2 & 3) This movie brought back the MIB fan in me! I remember seeing MIB 2 at Miracle Twin Drive-In Theater (Closed in 2008, Demolished now) so it was nice to see MIB 3 at another somewhat local Drive-In. I have always been a fan of seeing movies under the stars, late at night. It adds an enhancement to movies, especially a movie like Men In Black 3 with the whole zany space theme underneath it all.

Men In Black 3 starts off with you meeting the Villain of the film whose dubbed "Boris the animal." Boris breaks out of the space prison with aid from his girlfriend Lily. Boris's main intention after breaking out of prison is to kill the agent that put him there. The agent that captured Boris decades ago was Agent K. After Agent K & J investigate a spaceship crash in NYC, they see Boris. Boris escapes from Agent K & J. We then see K regret that he didn't kill him in the past (1969) instead of just sending him to intergalactic prison.

The next day, Agent J wakes up and heads to the MIB headquarters. There he asks where Agent K is and he is informed that K died at the hands of "Boris the animal" in 1969. Agent O (The new Chief) informs Agent J that there must have been a fracture in the space-time continuum. With that, Agent J heads back in time to try to stop "Boris the animal" from killing Agent K.  Agent J goes back in time with the help of a local electronic shop owner, and meets a very young Agent K. 

Agent J has just one day to save Agent K's life. Does he do it? Will there be another sequel? Is a big secret of Agent K's spilled to Agent J? All of this and more is answered when you attend a screening of Men In Black 3.

Would I recommend this movie? Yes, in a heartbeat. I thought this movie was almost as good as the original and surpassed the second by leaps and bounds. If you are a fan of the first, but didn't like the second, give this one a try.
