The Men in Black 1997

It is a really fun movie not only for its visual effects and scenery, its guidance and character development is well plated to reach the general public, I saw this movie when I was a child I had an incredible time and surprised by the aliens If I remember correctly I thought for a moment that they were real aliens, all those dramatic effects, brainwashing wands and the existence of races more advanced than humanity are well captured and developed on film.
Will Smith's appearance as the main character is one of the best things about the movie, the way he controls his character to be serious in a certain moment of action and plot and then tells a joke in other scenes and dramatically changes the history situation. The way in which the story is told and involved in this whole world completely different, discovering that humans are not the only ones in the universe, is something that would make my head explode and he handles it calmly, as if nothing had happened nothing.
Being a film from the 90s, it has one of the best effects of the time, the aliens seem real but unfortunately they are not, to be simple effects they turned out quite well, I do not know if it is because of the different camera approaches or because the Editors knew how to alter the content without attracting so much attention.
The character of Tommy Lee Jones cannot be left behind either, I don't know if it is because of his years of experience or because they knew how to make his serious character a at all times while maintaining almost unaltered expressions, always being the most serious in history and focused on his work to be the best.
