Come to daddy.....

Rating: 7/10 (16 February 2016)

John and Jane Smith are married, living a normal life in a normal suburb and working normal jobs.
In reality, John and Jane are both skilled assassins working for different firms, both the best in their field, each concealing their true profession from the other.
When both are assigned to kill a man nicknamed "The Tank", they encounter each other on the job and discover the truth.
Both employers task one to eliminate the other, and each must choose between their personal and professional lives.
Jolie and Pitt have a body of work that is wonderfully ranged, and for each Fight Club and Tomb Raider, you have a Tomb Raider and an Oceans 12.
This lies somewhere in between the quality of their movies, and it's nothing more than a light piece of fluff that is designed for the high concept summer market. And I guarantee that this wouldn't have made nearly as much as it did, if it wasn't for the two leads getting together.
The two have wonderful chemistry together, and they do look like a proper couple, which only adds to the enjoyment of the film. It does go really over the top toward the end, with a pointless Butch and Sundance type shot out which drags a little after a such a wonderful car chase.
But despite the film being really good looking, and making us normal, middle class people that little bit envious of the house size and the looks, the film is nothing more than a summer blockbuster, made only to entertain for its duration, and to be forgotten about soon after.
Reportedly, Jennifer Aniston does not own a copy.
