Review of Men in Black

Men in Black (1997)
7/10
Humorous Escapism
3 June 2002
This was a fun movie with a few interesting ideas. The ending after the ending makes you think about the relativity of size, and it was cute. It didnt take itself seriously which unfortunately ID4 and Lost in Space did. At 98 mins it is a little on the short side for current movies but I guess it is aimed at the short attention span of younger people.

All the stars were good, Tommy Lee Jones plays Tommy Lee Jones with the usual staccato delivery and dry wit, Will Smith and his own brand of humour offsets TLJ nicely. Vincent D'Onofrio was brilliant as Edgar the bug. The loose skin thing worked really well.

I for one will be looking forward to the sequel.
