Wars and ‘Means’

Anyone caught in a love triangle or combating for the affections of a loved-one despite someone else’s attempts to sabotage the entire relationship has daydreamed of having the technology of a spy at their disposal to do away with their foe. This Means War is a new romantic action comedy that gives audiences exactly that: two elite spies vying for the same woman. Reese Witherspoon plays the one caught in the middle as Chris Pine and Tom Hardy mount a fanciful arms race of sorts to outwit the other. But are they busy proving who is the better man or who just who is the best spy? In the end, it is still up to Witherspoon to decide. Chelsea Handler and Angela Bassett co-star. Rated R.
