Let me begin by saving I only watched this movie because their wasn't anything else on at the moment. This Means War is about two spies who meet the same girl and make a bet of who can get her to love them first. At a glance this appears to be one of those romantic movies that attempts to gain male view. It sadly fails at this like every other romance. This film has a great cast with Chris Pine, Tom Hardy and Reese Witherspoon. So basically Bane and Captain Kirk are
fighting for Ell Woods heart. Chris Pine was good in this film not up to star trek good but still good. His action scenes were entertaining and his sarcasm was enjoyable for a while but eventually seemed like whining. Tom Hardy was okay in this movie seemed like he was trying to be James Bond but at the same time trying to be funny. He honestly should have just reprised his role from Inception because that's the character that I was looking for the entire time. Just stick to being Gotham's reckoning Tom Hardy. Reese Witherspoon as usual was good its understandable why two spies would fight over her. She was playing an independent woman which was a first for her. Normally she plays either the dumb blonde or the scared girl. he connection with both male actors was good but her scenes with Tom Hardy seemed like she was scared almost. Maybe she had just seen Batman and feared him just as much as Anne Hathaway. Its almost like ew I'm
kissing Bane get Kirk back here now. In addition the action scenes in this film were surprising good normally they are cheesy but the were decent. They were incredibly intense but in one scene Tom Hardy has a Rambo moment playing paintball. In conclusion this means war is a good movie better than this critic expected. I'm going to give it a 6 out of 10 only because its a romance and most romances are highly predictable which this film is. The action is decent and the acting is sub par but over all a good movie for a rainy day. I wouldn't buy it
but maybe red box for a dollar.
