MR. AND MRS. SMITH

I watched this movie again on HBO recently and I really enjoy watching it. I don't care what other people say about it, that it's not great, that it's a bad movie, etc. I love the on-screen sizzle of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Plus, I think that the writer did a great job with the story. Sooo cute! I love how they incorporated real life to a movie. I mean, it IS true that some marriages lose their oomph after some years but in the movie, Jane and John Smith found a (painful) way to bring back the romance. The action scenes were great and Angelina and Brad were really suited for each other. I also really loved how Angelina can look so professional in a turtleneck and skirt and then look so hot in combat boots. Not many women can pull that off. Anyway, I think I would love to have this in our DVD collection. =D

Some of my favorite dialogues:


Marriage Counselor: On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate the happiness of your marriage?
Jane Smith: 8.
John Smith: Wait. Could you clarify? Is 10 the highest? 10 being perfectly happy and 1 being totally miserable or...
Marriage Counselor: Just respond instinctively.
John Smith: Ok. Ready?
Jane Smith, John Smith: 8.

John Smith: Does that include weekends?
[when asked how many times they have sex]

[about the new curtains Jane bought]
Jane Smith: If you don't like them we can take them back.
John Smith: All right, I don't like them.
Jane Smith: [pause] You'll get used to them.

Marriage Counselor: How often do you have sex?
Jane Smith: I don't understand the question.
Jane Smith: There's this huge space between us, and it just keeps filling up with everything that we *don't* say to each other. What's that called?
Marriage Counselor: Marriage.

Eddie: Did you get a look at him?
John Smith: Little thing. Buck ten, buck fifteen tops.
Eddie: Maybe he was Filipino!
John Smith: I'm not even sure it was a him.
Eddie: You saying you had your ass handed to you by some girl?
John Smith: I think so. A pro.

John Smith: That's the second time you've tried to kill me today.
Jane Smith: Oh, come on, it was just a little bomb.
