This one was not as clever\u00a0as the first one but more interesting than the second one.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s nice to see Agents J and K again, and Josh Brolin does a fabulous job portraying a young K. The set design and costumes for the 1960s scenes are marvelous. Griffin is a great character, and so is Andy Warhol (here an agent in disguise). There was one point near the end where I was confused about exactly what happened.<\/p>\n<p>The movie started filming without a completed script &#8212; perhaps it could have been better if they hadn&#8217;t done this. It seems to me that at this point in the history of movies people should know that you shouldn&#8217;t do that.<\/p>\n<p>I love the theme music by Danny Elfman (<strong>Batman<\/strong>).

Agent O is played by Emma Thompson (<strong>Stranger Than Fiction<\/strong>)\u00a0and Boris is played by Jemaine Clement (<strong>Eagle vs Shark<\/strong>).<\/p>\n<p>The movie was directed by Barry Sonnenfeld (<strong>The Addams Family<\/strong>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{4\/5} &#8220;A miracle is what seems impossible but happens anyway.&#8221; Boris the Animal breaks out of prison on the Moon and then goes back in time to kill the man who shot off his arm &#8212; Agent K.
