    Amazing! Funny! Don't miss it!

    I had no idea how much this movie would blow me away. From start to finish it was funny, action-packed, and kept the story flowing at a believable pace. Men and Women can both find something for themselves here. The characters were very believable and well-developed. I just cannot say enough how great this movie was. I can't wait to see it again!

    Very Funny, and worth the price of admission

    This was a very entertaining movie, and kept you laughing rhoughout. There was a lot of chemistry on screen, and Reese Witherspoon is just getting better with age... both in her acting and her beauty.

    It will make a great "Date Night" movie, and kids 13 and over will likely enjoy it as well, because it is full of plenty action.

    Without giving away the ending, I will say it ended the best way possible for all those involved, and we completely agreed with it.

    It will be an action comedy we add to our personal collection once it is released on DVD.

    Hoping for a Bromance Sequel.

    by

    There were a lot of fun, laugh out loud moments and the few action scenes were pulse pounding. Definitely adult humor. I love Tom Hardy's character Tuck, I wish they would have allowed his character to be shown a little more. The best scenes were with the relationship between the male leads. I am hoping they will do a bromance movie featuring Chris Pine and Tom Hardy, that would be an amazing sequel. Although I enjoyed this movie immensely, the ending was a bit of a let down.

    DONT LISTEN TO THE CRITICS!!!!

    I haven't written a review in awhile. Not enough time in the day but I had to here because the critics were so harsh on this flick. I absolutely LOVED this movie. It was funny, cute witty and had a bit of everything for everyone. I thought the actors worked incredibly well together. They pulled you into the movie and hold you there. I laughed so hard my gut ached and I thought it was extremely well casted! Go see it for yourself. Great date movie and great night out movie all the way around!. If giving it 1 out of 10 (10 being excellent), I would rate this an 8 or 9 for the genre it is in! Trust me!

    Perfect for couples

    This movie has action and quirky romance, it's hilarious! My husband walked out and said that this was the best couple movie he's seen in a while.

    A Pleasant Surprise

    I was very surprised at how entertaining the movie was. My impression after watching the trailers was that it was going to be a chick flick but it was action packed as well. A movie for both sexes.

    An Action Filled "May The Best Man Win" Romp With Modern Twists.

    It's hard not to look at this cast and think: Were these people carved out of cream cheese or what? Despite their incredibly distracting facial-bone structures, this trio manages to pull off one funny and engaging modern romantic competition. Without a doubt, this script is NOT a bit formulaic and holds fresh and action packed appeal for a broad audience. Good thing too, at least for the producers anyway, because between the stunts, nonstop action and expensive casting, they'll probably need to sell a boatload of tickets to recoup, even at today's high ticket prices. This one is well worth your time and the ticket cost. See it. You won't be disappointed.

    Better than I expected

    After reading all of the critics reviews I was skeptical about the film but I was pleasantly surprised. The movie is light hearted and fun with Chris Pine, Tom Hardy and Reese Witherspoon all turning in believable and capable performances. While not the funniest movie I've seen, all in all its definitely a fun movie.

    A Good Time

    Critics try too hard to dissect movies into its parts....it wasn't this or it wasn't that.....this movie is good for what it was.....it was just a good time. This Means War doesn't take itself too seriously and neither should the viewer. I happen to like what director, McG, does with movies....he has a lot of fun. The Charlie's Angels films he directed were along the same lines as This Means War; there's a little bit of campiness involved. Doubtful it will win any awards but it wins my recommendation.....I really enjoyed the movie.

    Very funny!!

    Better than expected; Reese looked amazing and the guys were awesome too! Tom Hardy reminded me of a young Kevin Costner and Chris Pine is just so cute!! A definite must see.

    Tom Hardy

    I could look at and listen to Tom Hardy all day. So, if you like Tom Hardy, you will love this movie. Everyone else is just fine but for me, the reason to see this movie was Tom Hardy. I don't care how unbelievable it was, I love watching him, I love listening to him, he makes me laugh, and he he even got me a little choked up too. Enjoy!

    Rotten Tomatoes can suck it.

    This film's got a 25ish% rating on rotten tomatoes, and I don't see why... Granted it's a bit cliche and unrealistic, but it's great for both an action flick and a chick flick! If you love Chelsea Handler and/or Reese Witherspoon at all, it's seriously a must see. Very funny.

    Cute and Fun

    I enjoyed this film. Makes you laugh, and a good little lovey type storyline. A little predictable, but nothing major. Would definitely recommend. Good date movie if you don't want to go see The Vow.

    This Means War

    the movie is cute and entertaining and will make you laugh. But go for the escape from your life for 2 hours factor, not because you are going to see Reese in another Legally Blonde. Chris Pine's blue eyes are also her co-star.

    I'd see it again

    by rstahl

    I was pleasantly surprised by this action/spy/buddy/rom/com flick. The action sequences we're tightly edited to a point of being nauseating, but the rest of the movie was so fun I was willing to overlook that part. The rom/com portion was a little silly and even a little predictable, but I found myself laughing out loud on numerous occasions. The chemistry works not only between the guys and the girl, but also between the guys. It totally worked.
