A funny and inventive sci-fi romp where everything rises and falls with the chemistry of the grumpy Tommy Lee Jones and the laid-back Will Smith. That's also the reason why subsequent viewings occasionally stumble unpleasantly due to the deaf spots. A sensation as a child that doesn't entirely stand the test of time.

Great - a combination of humor, action and great ideas that places MiB far above the average. Will Smith in the role of agent Jay at last has found his place amongst the Hollywood elite and of course Tommy Lee Jones in the role of agent Kay has reinforced his position. The best part of the story is probably the first half hour when Edwards (Smith) is subjected to a series of “simple" tests. I must mention the excellent villain, Vincent D'Onofrio, who really seems like he’s trapped inside an Edgar suit under layers of make-up and latex. When I was younger, MiB (also thanks to the wonderful dubbing) immediately became my favorite movie. I can recite lines from the movie to this day. So therefore 5*. Jeebs: Hiya, Kay. How are you? Kay: Show him the imports right now! Jeebs: Yeah... I got out of that business a long time ago. Kay: Why do you lie to me Jeebs? I hate it when you lie. Jeebs: Now, just hold on a second... Kay: I'm gonna count to three. Edwards: He'll do it, Jeebs. Kay: One. Edwards: I'm telling you, that man does not look stable. Kay: Two. Edwards You know what? Talk to me; he... he’s just crazy when he's like this. Jeebs: He's always crazy. Why don't you get a massage? Take a cruise. Kay: Three.

This is the film that made me start liking Will Smith, and that sentiment has essentially lasted until today, although he's also made some weaker films. It’s a great comedy, a great sci-fi with unforgettable characters, but also features a good story that is well-thought-out, action-packed, and never boring. The foundation is two perfectly chosen actors. And they weren't even the first choice.

An excellent popcorn flick, perhaps the best ever made in science fiction. Tommy Lee Jones represents seasoned experience that relies on strict order and years of practice, while Will Smith is brimming with youthful enthusiasm and isn't afraid to go all in. Both of them together are a guarantee of first-class entertainment and effective jokes that I love always and everywhere. The original premise is tailor-made for them and Sonnenfeld manages to execute it in a way that simply will draw people to the cinema, with humour, lots of action and amazing visuals. What the director did in the sequel, though, it’s nothing but a crime.
