Even if there weren't rumors of Brad splitting up with Jen and hooking up with Angelina, I'd still watch this movie because I like watching Angelina Jolie. It's been years since Girl, Interrupted, but she still has spunk.

Every assumption in this movie is outrageously stupid, starting with the basic premise: two people marry each other without knowing the other is an assassin - and both are supposedly top rank, too.

If you are willing to throw out logic, then you can start having fun.

I am beginning to like "Brad doing comedy" (Friends, Ocean's Eleven, Ocean's Twelve), and Jolie mixes beauty and action as usual. The fight scenes raise adrenalin, don't start questioning how some events came about, though - they will not make sense.Image hosted by Photobucket.com


This movie reminds me of True Lies and War of the Roses. But the older movies are more memorable than this.

What I found most hilarious though are those sessions with the marriage counselor. Those domestic scenes, where they are merely tolerating each other, comes second.
