Men In Black gets Blu-ray treatment
August 22, 2008

Men in black is comparable to the comedy/action movie franchise Ghostbusters where the main characters chase aliens instead of ghosts.
Will Smith plays James who is an officer in the NYPD . After a hard night, James is questioned by his own police force for allegedly killing a suspect who fell off a building. As James insists that the person was acting strangely, Tommy Lee Jones who plays Agent K comes in and takes him out.
James passes the test and becomes one of the men in black, who keeps the aliens in check.
The movie is largely driven by the chemistry between Smith and Jones. Smith has some great comedy scenes where he is using his new weapon, the Noisy Crickett and him trying to deliver a baby squid type creature. The aliens are smart, their inventive, and their just plain fun when seeing how they identify themselves and hide their identities. The story is funny and will keep you laughing at almost every scene.
Fine special effects help to bring the aliens in MIB to life, and they have as much character as the duo in black, and they get just as many laughs. The film carries a good plot and is entertaining from the opening scene; which sets the tone of the film nicely, and makes you yearn for some more.
We can see many references made in this movie to ''E.T.'' and "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" and the end where a big alien is playing marbles with our galaxy is brilliant! I also learned after this movie, that existed actual ''Men in Black'' who were supposed to be in contact with UFOs, what was a big surprise to me, since I imagined it to be a creation of the director or writer.
