John and Jane Smith have been married for five or six years and there marriage is going through a bit of a rough patch
the events that follow will either bring them back together or kill them! Each of them thinks the other has an ordinary job but in fact they each work as assassins for rival organisations; when they get sent after the same target there is bound to be trouble. They end up shooting at each other and the target gets away; believing they could be identified each is given forty eight hours to kill the other. At this point they don't realise who the rival assassin was but when they find out they quickly stop trusting each other and start trying to shoot each other! After shooting up the house they realise that they genuinely love each other; the problem is now both their organisations are using all their resources to eliminate Mr and Mrs Smith!.
While this isn't a classic film it is rather fun in a very silly way. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie do well in the leading roles even though they have both been better in other films. The story is of course preposterous but if you can suspend your disbelief and but your brain in neutral it is worth watching. There are plenty of laugh out loud moments and the action is fairly intense without any gore or real unpleasantness the final shoot out manages to be action packed and hilarious at the same time! Over all I'd say this is definitely worth watching if it is on television or if the DVD is in the bargain bin.
