Men In Black (2002, DVD)

Movie Description
In the 1950s a super-secret government agency was formed to monitor and police the activities of extraterrestrial aliens on the planet Earth. Some 40 years later a founding father of the agency, Agent Kay (Tommy Lee Jones), finds himself with a new smart-mouthed partner fresh from the NYPD who is soon dubbed Agent Jay (Will Smith). Their first mission is to save the Earth from destruction by a giant insectlike alien (Vincent D'Onfrio) that, incidentally, drives an exterminator's truck. Armed with their matching Ray-Bans, skinny ties, and space-age weapons that Jay barely understands--he calls the Neuralyzer the "flashy thing"--the new duo begin another average day of fighting intergalactic terrorists. An amazingly hip and terribly clever movie that riffs on everything from E.T.--THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL to CASABLANCA, this Barry Sonnenfeld film is based on the equally savvy comic book by Lowell Cunningham.

Editorial Reviews
"...The out-there premise is irresistible.... Effects master Rick Baker whips up a swell array of oddball creatures great, small and just plain strange..." -- 4 out of 4 stars
USA Today - p.1D - Susan Wloszczyna

"...Dryly clever....Extraordinarily ambitious, with all-star design and special-effects talent and a genuinely artful visual style..."
New York Times - p.C9 - Janet Maslin

"...Wised-up and offhandedly funny....Barry Sonnenfeld is an excellent director for this point of view, and MEN IN BLACK is a blend of the strengths of his previous films..."
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (07/01/1997)

"...The movie makes good use of a lot of New York landmarks....[The film] deflates one sci-fi pomposity after another..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (07/01/1997)

    Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones Has Made This Movie a 10 Star Movie!! Just The Right Amount Of Comedy and In All The Right Places!! Will Smith Plays a Local Police Officer in Pursuit of a Man and Is In Shock to See What This Man's Body is Capable of. Will Smith's Actor Ends Up Being Recruited To Become One Of The Men In Black!! Will Smith's Actor Is Hilarious On How He Makes Just About Everything Funny and To See Tommy Having To Put Up With It All!! :) A Great Adventure For The Whole Family........I Highly Recommend This Movie to ALL!!
