Mr And Mrs Smith.............
Ok so the plot of the film is basically Pitt and Jolie are married for 5 or maybe 6 years ( if you have seen it you will get that!! ) after a chance meeting in Colombia. What they hide from each other during marriage is that they are both Assasins.
So of course to make a story out of it, they both get an assignment to kill the same person, at which point they stop each other from claiming their target.
They then discover that the person who has stopped them is indeed their marital partner, and at which point the mayhem and destruction begins.
I noticed this film has been slated by certaing sections of the media, but i would have to disagree with them, as i think it is quite a good film, which i really enjoyed.
There is plenty of kick ass action, and the dialouge is genuinely very funny at times, and also there is a nice twist to the story, all in all making a very action packed, easy on the eye experience.
I should point out that the film is quite slow to get moving, but that is due to the fact that the story of how they meet gets told, but later on it gets really good. If you like Jolie in the Tomb Raider films, chances are you will enjoy this.
I really thought this film was fab, and it was a nice surprise to me as i thought it would be terrible, and also my favourite actor of the moment ( Vince Vaughn ) has quite a big part in the film, which was an added bonus to me.
If you like your action films, or you just like some good old eye candy on the screen, i suggest you go rent this as you might just find yourself being surprised.
