The most fun I've had at the movies this year!!

Rating: 9/10 (28 June 2005)

I can't say enough how much I loved this movie! Forget all the talk about Jolie and Pitt getting together while filming this, you HAVE to watch this movie. It is both very funny and full of action. This is what a true action film should be like - FUN. It reminds me a little of Die Hard - full of explosions and shootings, but also hilarious at times due to its witty lines and great banter from the two leads.
The story, which I'm sure everyone knows by now, is about a married couple who are getting bored with their relationship, little realising that they are both professional assassins working for different companies, and when they find out the sparks really fly.
If I had to criticise, I would say that the beginning of the film is really slow and it takes a while for the real action to kick off. But when that beginning has Angelina Jolie in a hot dominatrix outfit it totally makes up for it and I can't complain that much. Jolie and Pitt are great together, which means that the media will probably say that they definitely are together. I especially liked Brad Pitt's character, he plays the laid back, charming guy brilliantly and it's hard not to like him. Angelina is is hot as ever and the role hardly requires her to stretch her acting limits, but then that was never the point. Vince Vaughn is also great putting in an appearance as a hit-man who lives with his mother, because that's "the only women he's ever trusted".
Overall, I enjoyed this movie a lot and I would recommend it to anyone who likes their action/action-comedies. 4 out of 5
