Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds have great chemistry and seem to really enjoy playing against each other. They are both insanely HOT and it was great to be able to ogle him while my husband eyed Ms. Bullock. They are two of our favorite actors (her for just about everything she has ever been in, him for "Definitely, Maybe" and the Blade movies).
Just a light, fun, cute movie. A great escape on a hot summer day.
Have an open mind and you will enjoy this movie. It has a lot of CGI for the "unbelievable" action scenes, but they are well done (with the exception of one scene featuring Jolie on the top of a train - she looks like a stick figure!). James McAvoy is very believable as an every man who stumbles into a fantastic adventure and he never loses his appeal. There is a good twist near the end that wasn't telegraphed so it was a nice surprise. It is rated "R" for a reason - those that brought young children got up and walked out.....guess they thought it was Wall-E!!!!
