"Men in Black 3": When the man in black becomes a thing of the past

If you still treat the third episode as an alien movie, you may be a little disappointed. The movie "Men in Black", derived from the real UFO incident in Bolivia in 1978, has become an insignificant element in the high-tech era where aliens are commonplace today. It is more of a nostalgia for the incident at that time. The director also knows the key to it, so he directly played through. If John Lennon’s resurrection is just an appetizer, then the American Dream moon landing project in 1969 can be said to push the nostalgic concept to the supreme pinnacle without any disguise. , Once again turned the nostalgia into a hot spot for sales.

I have to admit that this nostalgia sale is very clever. Even if Tommy Lee Jones is already old and Zhuhuang can no longer jump and run, he must be supplemented by a stand-in. The barely showing faces of the front and rear sections can be said to complement each other. Not only has a rich interpretation of the emotional world of the character of K, but also explained J's past and present life clearly. Let the character's personality be extremely full and passionate, while the plot is delicate and touching, it also supports a lot of irrelevant laughs. As for the monsters that have always attracted alien monsters, they can only rely on fullness. The disgusting degree of the slobber of the long teeth is jaw-dropping.

For people who have always liked rice popcorn, this film will not be disappointed too much, although the two key characteristics of the era, John Lennon and 1969, may not have so much empathy for us on the other side of the ocean. The various humorous elements are enough to make us dazzled and happy. As for the many time-traveling logic loopholes in the film, we don't have to be true. This is a common phenomenon in rice-style blockbusters.
