It's fun, but overall kinda dull........

Rating: 5/10 (3 November 2010)

This is a film with pretty much a pointless plot that is simply there for two great looking actors and a bunch of action scenes. This is definitely a film that you shouldn't take seriously because it doesn't take itself seriously at all. But that is sort of part of the fun.
This is meant to be a romantic comedy action film and it is funny at times, though it didn't make me laugh that much. Angelina's character is more of a tight cow in this film and I actually felt more sympathetic with Brad Pitt's character instead as he actually is more gentlemanlike in this movie.
The plot - well it is pretty thin and it is pretty cliché in my opinion. The action scenes are done alright but it is nothing spectacular. This is pretty much Hollywood trying to bring in some big bucks.
The chemistry between Angelina and Brad I have to say is pretty good. They really light up the screen and are really charismatic, but that alone isn't really good enough. I found the film a bit silly, sometimes boring and overall I didn't think it was that funny. But the two stars make it worth the whole way through though they do seem a bit flat in their characters which makes it feel more like they are just there for the motions - but then this movie isn't really about character development.
Also, I didn't really like how they ended it and I won't say anything here, but they could have done a bit more on the relationship between the two at the end and how things changed for them. It didn't satisfy me at all.
