User blog comment:LexiLexi/Men In Black III: Review Roundup/@comment-3326039-20120601050834

I walked in the theater expecting another Men in Black II (I hated that one), walked out having experienced satisfying film. Spot on acting, Josh Borlin did a great Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith is still fresh.I didn't laugh much, but the part I did find amusing, Ifound very amusing (bowling ball head= do not like). Danny Elfman's dark (of course) score drips of delicous creepiness and wonder with wonder and and a unique twist of heavy metal, which sets it apart from the other films' scores and highlitghts our new villian's vibe. The story had a fairly good execution, altough I was let down by the "Whimsical Ending" of this installment. Way too predictible that a disater is pervented by coincidence than the Galaxy-in-a-Marble. there were quite a few missed opportunities, mostly with Borris. Every since seeing his mencing face, I hoped to see what terrifying eyes (?) lay beneth his lenses, as they were bound to fall off in the final showdown. When his true face was revealed... it got less than half a second of screen time. And they could have been have been so much more creative, like having the agents blow off future Borris' head, only to be suprisingly ambushed from past Borris hanging above. Or they could... nevermind, he is a pretty sinistar villan, but they show off all his tricks in the humorsly dark opening, and I still perfer the creepier Edger the Bug. Not trying to be a hater, in fact my problem is I just wanted more. Still loads of nostalgia-boosting fun, don't listen to The Star Tribune's reveiw (by the way, yes Frank does not acctually appear, but two clever reference are placed in for him). Overall I'd recomend it, and I give it 4/5 for feeling slightly stale at times, accidently letting several creative opportunities slip by, and falling short of the original, but this is a suprisingly satisfying Men in Black sequel worth a trip to the cinema.
