Don't drag yourself out of the house to see it.

Rating: 5/10 (26 June 2005)

I was hardly blown away, but this film could've been a lot worse. Pitt and Jolie hardly surpassed themselves, but used natural comedic timing to provide convincing performances, making up for the somewhat two-dimensional plot. Some of the best parts of the film showed their amazing on-screen chemistry, such as the seductive and dangerous tango scene. I was disappointed with the fact that Adam Brody had such a small part to play, and the attempted twist with Brody was obvious from the moment you met the character Â– who was really Seth Cohen in a suit. I have never seen such obvious type-casting, and having looked forward to seeing Brody in a new light, was frustrated Although intended to be intense with humour interspersed, one didn't really connect with the film, and it was clear that the audience were viewing with little more than mild interest. This was wholly understandable, given that one was supposed to believe that two presumably smart assassins did not check their partner's backgrounds thoroughly before agreeing to marry, and that the two agencies felt that the two of them living under the same roof was "bad for business"... What's that even supposed to mean? Whygo to that trouble, with the risk of potentially killing your best assassin? All in all an average film, one that Pitt and/or Jolie fans may appreciate, but never one for the DVD collection.
