Hardy Vs. Pine in CIA Rom Com THIS MEANS WAR
OK, let's get this out of the way right from the get-go: THIS MEANS WAR is directed by McG. Those of you who now feel compelled to write off this film please go ahead, but I'm sticking with it, not least because I would happily sit and watch Tom Hardy put together flat-packed furniture - the guy is a new screen legend in the making. Sure, 2012 is now shaping up to be his year, in the same way 2011 has been synonymous with Ryan Gosling, but that's just the way Hollywood likes to do things. Find a new talent, throw every in-development project at them. Actors gotta work, so no harm, no foul. 

THIS MEANS WAR pits Hardy (thank God they've let him keep his English accent!) against Chris Pine as top CIA operatives, partners and all-round best buds who both fall for the same girl - Reese Witherspoon (really?). Instead of one of the guys nobly backing off, they agree to compete head-to-head ...with hilarious consequences. If I'm honest, I'd never heard of this film before stumbling across the trailer a few minutes ago, and from what it shows, this looks like good clean fun. It's got glaringly obvious flaws, like its director and female lead, but I'll let you guys have the last word.
