Well now I can finally say that I've seen part of the 90s history with Men in Black. But to be quite honest, I had higher expectations for this movie and it just did not deliver for me. Maybe I should have watched it in the 90s when it was a huge hit.

But for whatever reason it just did not translate well for me in 2013. It was fun seeing Will Smith just starting out as an actor and Tommy Lee Jones definitely had some funny jokes when he always tried to one up Will Smith with a bigger gun.

But the long credit opening, weird aliens, language, and attempted humor just fell flat. The only thing that kept me going the entire movie was the hope that I would hear the classic men in Black song and it turned out I got to hear it for the credits at the end.

I can't say I would ever watch this movie again though.
