After reading some other reviews today, I had to see this movie. I thought it was really good. I don't know if others would agree, but I think they did a great job of combining a violent action film with a romantic comedy. Yes, I even teared up and one point, but don't worry, I didn't actually shed any tears. I usually don't go for action movies, but I think I was able to enjoy it because there wasn't a lot of blood and guts and there was a lot of humor. Also, it doesn't hurt looking at two absolutely beautiful people for two hours. I thought the entire movie was fun, but I particularly enjoyed the last 1/3 of the movie. I really liked the fight scenes between Angelina and Brad. It's not often that I'm fond of violence, but it was nice to see a fight where the woman was giving as good as she was getting! I also finally liked Vince Vaughn again. I loved him in Swingers but haven't really liked much of what he's done after Swingers. I also found Adam Brody (Seth from The OC) amusing in his role. For those who saw it, did you notice the t-shirt Adam Brody was wearing in the last scene with Brad and Angelina? Funny, huh?
Synopsis from Netflix: Marriage has gotten stale for John and Jane Smith (Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie), a husband and wife who don't yet know that they share the same undercover line of work: They're both guns for hire. Hiding their occupations has never been a hardship for either of them … until they discover that their next assignment involves them targeting each other! Can they go through with their respective missions, or will love prevail?

 | Can you tell us what is on the t-shirt or would that give something away? |
