Mr. and Mrs. Smith is a violent, but quite funny film starring two of the beautiful people, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. The story revolves around John and Jane Smith who meet under dubious circumstances and quickly get married. They live the facade of a happy, suburban marriage when, in fact, they are actually opposing hitmen whose real identities are hidden, even to each other.
Once they become aware and are hired to off each other, the story kicks into high gear. Gun play and word play intertwine as Pitt and Jolie first try to kill each other and then try to defend each other. Pitt and Jolie have a lot of on-screen chemistry and the script gives them a lot of clever dialogue to feed off of each other. The overall result is a very satisfying cinematic escapism with two of the most naturally beautiful people God has ever created.
I found one thing interesting... at no point during the film do they tell each other they love each other. Granted, most of the story revolves around their re-discovery of their relationship, but they are willing to put their lives at risk for each other and yet they never state why and if that reason is love.
Overall, a very fun flick.
