Mrs. Cruff - Mr. Scruff

Advantages: Ok film and it features Brad Pitt
Disadvantages: Bit cheesy and unbelievable in places

...Mr & Mrs Smith is a film first released in June 2005. It has been described as an action/comedy/adventure/romance film so has something for everybody. The film was directed by Doug Liman and runs for 122 minutes. It is certified as a 15 due to some moderate sexual references and quite a bit of violence. ------- PLOT ------ The film begins with Mr & Mrs Smith seeking marriage guidance counselling with the film going on to explain how the married couple ended up needing counselling.

Advantages: Humour, on-screen chemistry, good stunts
Disadvantages: Simple plot, you don't have to be a genius to watch it.

...Not filmic genius, but pretty darned entertaining. The main premise of the film is that Mr and Mrs Smith are members of opposing spy organisations. Their bosses realise what has happened and try to make them kill each other by sending them to kill the same man. The plan fails and Mr and Mrs Smith soon realise themselves what is happening and have to try to survive. I especially liked the fact that Jolie came off so much better than Pitt through most of this film. Mrs Smith was the one with the plan, who did everything smoothly and efficiently and always got the upper hand. Mr Smith was clumsy and had a habit of running in headfirst without thinking of consequences. You could see the chemistry between Pitt and Jolie and it's unsurprising that they got together while making this film. The action sequences are very satisfying to watch... Read review
