This Means War review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 07/01/12
The premise of Two CIA operatives using the resources of their office to woo a girl and get back at each other is ludicrous. It's funny how a guilty lady being serenaded by two hunks becomes fine with it. FDR Foster (Chris Pine) and Tuck Hansen (Tom Hardy) are colleagues and good friends who fall for a product tester named Lauren Scott (Reese Witherspoon). Soundtrack and effects were used effectively, unfortunately its still difficult to swallow the incidents when they were never reprimanded for the actions (being in the CIA don't they have firewalls or devices to track employees who misuse resources, unless they are carefree about it). This Means War provided sufficient comedy to keep one interested, but just wastes the casts skills in this mediocre action comedy that tries too much to be stylish.
