Alicia I love this movie so much
Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
cazzmarquez I mean it's a chick flick so you can't expect a big trama out this one. So if you're in the want for a chick flick with 2 hot dudes ( I always lean for Chris Pine ) and a nice beautiful girl with the trama of fighting for someone's loves it's good
Mihai Toma When two very different federal agents, with a strong friendship between them, try to seduce and eventually fall for the same woman, the make a deal to fight fair for her heart. Obviously, this is not going to happen so, much sooner than imagined, they start to use every mean considered necessary for this sole purpose.It's a movie which tries to seem serious by providing a good plot with a couple of good actors, but which can only lead to one result. Thus, what it ends up to be is a great comedy which presents multiple situations, bound to make you laugh out loud. The nice part is that it mostly succeeds, really making you laugh, or at least providing a very good time. The not so good part is that it tends to exaggerate in this aspect, focusing way too much on the funny part of things, leaving the story a little bit behind. It's not something that can ruin the experience, but it is worth noting it.The overall impression it leaves is a very positive one, managing to create an entertaining atmosphere, with a not so predictable course of events which ultimately lead to a quite satisfying finale. It's a very good watch if you're in for a comedy but don't expect something ground-breaking in terms of everything else.
Jack Munson The story follows two agents that are trying to go after one girl. In stereotypical fashion this causes conflict and so on. The story became very repetitive and dull throughout. The funniest part was that there was an antagonist in the movie. AN ANTAGONIST IN A ROM COME! There is this guy that the two agents try and get at the beginning of the movie and he causes problems randomly.The acting was borderline bad. Chris Pine was his normal pretty boy character that he does in a lot of movies. Don't get me wrong, he is good when he wants to be, but often times he plays the same character. Tom Hardy is still his great self, being the biased guy that I am, he did another great job, except this movie isn't good. Reese didn't have her spoon in this one either. She was just there to be pretty and say things, she didn't really develop at all. She is the same girl throughout the entire movie.The camera was OK, there was a couple good shots, but nothing to recommend the movie to someone for.The soundtrack was pretty good, it was filled with some popular songs that made some cool moments (I'm talking about the opening scene). The soundtrack didn't effect the movie as a whole though, it was just there.This Means War was entertaining for one viewing, I would only watch it again if my parents, SO, or friends wanted to watch it. The movie was story, acting, and everything weak. It was fun, but I don't see it being fun again.This Means War does do one thing. Prove that Tom Hardy could play a bad ass Sam Fisher.
Terryfan I'm just one of those fans of movies who try to look past the junk and see the treasure while I didn't find any with This Mean Wars.I actually found This Means War quite entertaining. The plot centers around Foster (Played by Chris Pine) and Tuck (Played by Tom Hardy) who are best friends while working for the CIA however they begin dating the same girl Lauren (Played by Reese Witherspoon).Which leads us to a series of events where both men try to get the girl.Now the plot is not something we haven't seen before but it is worth while to watch. Chris and Tom and Reese play off well with their characters that they play and given us quite some comedy moments which when I watch I got some good kicks out of it. So yeah I went into this film without knowing or even seen a trailer for it Sure the film isn't perfect but considering what I have seen in the last few years this one is actually worth my time because I found it funny and entertaining. Plus I like Reese, Tom and Chris' performances in the film.Overall if you're looking for a film that is a comedy and something different then could be your film.I give This Mean Wars an 7 out of 10Of Course You Know This Means War!
