    Oh man, this slaps. Watching it again, I can see the early 2000's shiny aesthetic bouncing off MIB central's interiors and hilariously overpowered guns, mixed with some good old fashioned 90's screwball action, a solid script, and impeccable chemistry between Jones and Smith. And how great is it that they're Mr. Jones and Mr. Smith? All killer, no filler. Happy they never turned this into a lukewarm franchise!

    Is All Shook Up for the first hour or so, needs A Little Less Conversation from Tom Hanks throughout but I Can't Help Falling in Love with that ending. Good film, bit wobbly.

    Real freaky, in the best and the worst ways. Lurid, gorgeous, sexy, horrific. Also has one of the funniest scenes ever involving a potential hanging, neck-to-neck (yes) with Buster Scruggs. Shoutout to the soundtrack: "My Tamako, My Sookee" is brilliant. My eyeballs couldn't believe some of the shots. Not a tidy film by any means, more of a fever dream — by the way, never watch this with your parents.
