This Means War (2012) 6/10

Starring : Reese Witherspoon, Chris Pine, Tom Hardy
Director : McG
Running Time : 98 mins

When divorcee Tuck Hansen (Hardy) decides it’s about time he re-entered the dating field, he signs up for online dating and meets product tester Lauren Scott (Witherspoon). The two hit it off, but on the way home from her date Lauren runs into Frank Foster (Pine), Hansen’s colleague. Things seem like they couldn’t get worse, except Hansen and Foster are both CIA undercover agents…

This was okay, even for a McG movie, and the characters were reminiscent of those from Bad Boys for some reason, but everything came together a little too smoothly for my liking and with everyone perfectly happy towards the end of the movie it just felt like nothing important had happened. Fans of Witherspoon might actually dislike her in this as she cheats on her two beaus and only gets concerned when she finds out they know each other and accuses them of playing games. That’s a little hypocritical if you ask me.
