Will Smith's star status remains intact.

The movie's international cume through Sunday was an impressive $429.8 million, compared to $169.6 million domestically.
MIB3 has generated big numbers in Japan, grossing $37.6 million to date in that territory. Moviegoers in the U.K. also have turned out in force, propelling the film's gross in that territory to $32.8 million.
Third up is Germany, where MIB3 has grossed $24.2 million.
