Movie Talk - The Men in Black Movie Franchise

I’m surprised that I haven’t talked about these movies here. While me and Liz were visiting some family, they were watching the latest Men in Black movie, Men in Black International. I hadn’t made my way around to seeing it yet especially since I knew it wasn’t received well. It turns out that Liz hadn’t seen any of the MIB movies, so we had a bit of a project back in March. All three of the original were on Netflix, so we were able to revisit a bit of childhood nostalgia… well nostalgia for me. I’d seen all three movies though I didn’t remember much of MIB3.

For those who don’t know, Men in Black was based on some comics of the same name, so you can also throw Men in Black in the comic book genre. They were done by Aircel Comics (which got bought out by Malibu Comics) in the 90’s. The series revolves around a secret group of government agents who interact different paranormal and extraterrestrial beings on Earth. They’re either protecting them or making sure they stay in line and don’t go on murder sprees. The movies just revolved around the alien stuff. The first movie was a big success and even spawned a pretty cool animated series that I fondly remember. It gets pretty spotty after that, but that’s how these franchises go. So, what did I think of all four movies?
