Men in Black 3: A film review

 - Vancouver, British Columbia - The first Men In Black movie came out when I was 11 years old and instantly became one of my favourite movies. It was action packed, creative, hilarious, and just the right amount of disgusting to keep my preteen self engaged and entertained. I just loved it. Then, five years later they made a sequel that... well, I might not be the only one to say that it disappointed on a few levels. Nevertheless, the film was successful financially and I heard rumours of a Men in Black 3 for a long time. But... it didn't happen. After the first Men In Black film, Will Smith was pretty much a box office winning guarantee, having the most amount of #1 films in a row, all of which made hundreds of millions of dollars. Then, after three movies in less than two years, I Am Legend, Hancock, and Seven Pounds, he took a leave of absence from big screen. In that time he was focusing on launching the careers of his kids, producing movies like The Karate Kid, which starred his son Jaden Smith. And apparently Willow Smith has a music career, but I don't know much beyond the much hated single “Whip My Hair.” The less said about that, the better.

So what makes my opinion worth anything? Well, if the production team stumbles upon this review, may it count as encouragement to them.
