Overview
-----------
Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith are a fab duet in this modern Sci-Fi film. They really have bucked the trend bringing sci-fi to the masses and doing the impossible - making it funny!

Plot
-----

This film was originally based on a Marvel comic. A secret government agency who wear black suits and Ray-Bans (hence Men In Black) confront any illegal aliens on Earth. The aliens come in various guises ranging from bug eyed, slime covered horrors to dog shaped cute ones, and, in the final scene giant cockroaches with very bad attitudes.

Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are paired together by MIB to keep an eye on aliens in New York City and must try to save the world after the aliens threaten to blow it up.

Characters
--------------
Will Smith plays J an arrogant ex NYPD officer. Tommy Lee Jones plays K the experienced MIB member about to retire. These are the 2 main characters but the who cast is big budget. TLJ and Will Smith work really well together and you can tell that there really is chemistry between them. I think this is what makes the film special and sets it apart from others.

Overall
---------
Great film with great actors. Im a sci-fi convert after watching this - not just for geeks!
