This Means War Movie Review

This Means War
Available on May 22!

Film Synopsis: They are the CIA’s best, trained for any situation…except one.  Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment plays the ultimate spy game as two best friends fight for the right of one woman’s hand in THIS MEANS WAR, coming to Blu-ray, DVD and Digital Download May 22.  Starring Academy Award® winner Reese Witherspoon* (Walk the Line), Chris Pine (Star Trek) and Tom Hardy (The Dark Knight Rises), the laugh-out-loud comedy gets even better on Blu-ray with three alternate endings that answer the question – what if she chose the other guy?

The world’s deadliest CIA operatives, FDR Foster (Pine) and Tuck (Hardy), are inseparable partners and best friends until they fall for the same woman (Witherspoon).  Having once helped bring down entire enemy nations, they are now employing their incomparable skills and an endless array of high-tech gadgetry against their greatest nemesis – each other

This Means War Movie Review

My husband and I went on a date to first watch This Means War in theaters. We spent the entire film busting up laughing and having a great time watching the show! It felt like the perfect combination of an action, comedy, and chick flick all rolled into one great film! This by far has been my favorite movie so far this year and I absolutely recommend this title as a perfect date night movie! We had fun trying to pick out which spy would win the girl throughout the show.
