About: This Means War starring Reese Witherspoon, Chris Pine and Tom Hardy is a romantic comedy where two best friends, who happen to both work for the CIA, accidentally start dating and fall for the same girl.
The Bonus Features include the directors commentary, deleted scenes and two alternate endings. The second ending made us both laugh out loud and with the deleted scenes, though you can see why they are deleted, had some funny moments as well. If you rent the DVD don’t forget to check them out. They are definitely worth watching.
Our Thoughts: For me this movie was just okay. The plot moves quickly with only a few slow parts and there are quite a few laughs to keep you entertained. However it was fairly predictable. I will say that it was predictable like all movies are predictable though. Though there were plenty of laughs, there were not as many as I thought there would be. Unfortunately this was one of those movies where, if you’ve seen the trailer you’ve seen the movie.
My husband was bored through most of the movie. He liked the ending but was mostly disappointed, and he was legitimately looking forward to watching this one. I will also mention that my husband doesn’t mind the occasional romantic comedy and he gives everything a fair chance.
Final Thoughts: Overall I would watch this movie again if it was on T.V. and there was nothing else on.

I didn’t even know this movie was out :) It looked so good when I saw the trailer and I was thinking….romantic comedy plus action….finally a movie my husband wouldn’t mind watching with me, now, not so sure. I will make sure we rent this before I decide to buy, thanks for the review
I thought the same thing (and I`m sure my husband did too).
This sounds awesome! I love all these actors:) I know you didn’t love it, but I don’t mind predictable:)
Hmm, I was looking forward to this one, but now I’m not sure
I saw this movie already. And I love it! :))
I LOVE Reese Witherspoon. She is such an exquisite actress. My favorite movie of her’s is “The Man in The Moon.” I LOVE her role as Dani in that movie. I bawled!
Anyway, I look forward to seeing this movie, I’m pretty sure I’ll love it.
Thank you for the great review.
