Do You Know Where Your Partner Is?

Rating: 7/10 (18 August 2005)

2005 hasn't exactly been the best year for movies. I really can't think when there has been such a lull in Hollywood. OK Mrs and Mrs Smith hasn't really set the world of movies on fire, but on the flip side it has its moments.
The premise of the movie, Mrs and Mrs Smith live comfortably in their suburban paradise. All isn't well in Pleasantville, when they suspect each other of conducting extramarital affairs. Neither Mrs and Mrs Smith realise that they work for secret organisations. From there, the jealousy could either kill them or enhance their marriage.
The performance of Joile was like her looks totally flawless. Brad Pitt wasn't that bad. In the back of my mind, this movie would have been better scripted for Catherine Zeta Jones and George Clooney.
Mrs and Smith has a refined look, and it was well choreographed, especially the scene in the home hardware store. To a certain extent the movie is predictable, but on the other hand it has some twists and turns. I would have to watch the movie again to give it an educated opinion. I really don't know if it was the casting or the script which caused the downfall of the movie. On the whole, Mrs and Mrs Smith is a relatively decent movie, but I felt there was some room for improvement.
