And.... there was the bonus appearance of Adam Brody who I had forgotten was running around last summer saying he was working on a movie with Brad Pitt. I just hadn't realized it was THIS movie.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I saw Mr. and Mrs. Smith and I agree. Very funny, many laugh out moments. The pacing was off in parts, and I think the movie coulda been a bit shorter, but all-in-all much better than I expected.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Pitt and Brody together? Comedy gold. Pitt, unlike lots of actors, is even sexier when he does funny. It's nice.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think it could have been longer, because then there could have been an ending. Or maybe my copy was missing one.
I laughed so hard at Brad. Too freaking funny. I tolerated Angelina -- I'd thought this could push me into her camp, but not really. I'm in Brad's camp quite wholeheartedly, though. And! A krav instructor was in it. Oddly more easy for me to recognise than when he was in Scrubs, despite his speaking role in the latter.

So much sexier when he does funny. I'd totally agree. I think the fact that he is olympianly beautiful + good timing + the funny.......he's really wonderful in comedy. I wonder if his looks get in the way of him doing so more often.
I think most movies could be shorter as I have about a 1 hour attention span and this mostly kept me.

That was krav? The street fighting/face mashing/boxing training stuff? Remind me not to piss you off, ita.

I laughed so hard at Brad.
Well he did get all the funny lines and the great reactions. Seriously. Needs to do more comedy. And I think she was a good match up for him.
Which one was the Krav instructor?
ALSO, I am so amused at my amazement that Adam Brody was in the movie.

Kat, I saw him and I thought Oh, so that's Kat's Adam Brody.
Note the possessive.

Who was Adam Brody again?

That's also Kat's Seth Cohen. Same character, all the time.
Eddie -- that scene was true to krav, and the main fight scene was also pretty kravvy.
Kat -- he was one of the commandos who came in at the end. The only one whose face you saw, which makes me wonder -- who did he pay off for that one? But he trained Angelina for Tomb Raider and Brad for Troy so maybe he pulled strings. I want to work in his division.
