Men In Black 3: total fan

So, I do not remember, nor do I care to, MIB2.  It was overly silly (with those chain-smokin' Cheech-roaches) and just left a bad taste overall.  However, I am a fan of learning organizations and it seems like the addition of Etan Cohen made this Mulligan a fantastic film.  Without requiring much knowledge of the previous installments, you could enjoy the J/K relationship and its evolution throughout the movie.  Not too long, it gives you enough of the mystery upfront to keep you engaged until its resolution at the end ("oh, that's how all those pieces fit together").  Additionally the acknowledgements to its 60's backdrop were a nice touch (similar to a Zach Morris cellphone being indicative of the 90's). With a summer chart topper on the soundtrack, all in all, I'm a fan.
Verdict: Enjoyable summer blockbuster (Go for it!)
