I wasn't expecting too much from this film due to the hype, but was very pleasantly surprised. Sure, the leads are impossibly good looking and the story line is completely ridiculous, but we always knew it wasn't a documentary. It really is a wild ride, very glamorous and violent, with witty lines and gorgeous wardrobes. Angelina Jolie does a great job of being very cool, with a warmth and unexpected vulnerability bubbling just below the surface. Brad tends to be guilty of wooden acting in some films, but not this time. He also plays his part with warmth and an endearing eccentricity that he can do so well. These two certainly compliment each other, and there is no denying that the on-screen chemistry is just about the best I've seen in a very long time. The support acting is good, especially Vince Vaughn, but the show belongs to Angelina and Brad, and rightly so. Great fun, great lines, great cheekbones.
