[The News Bot]

Having all 3 versions to hand, one can see if there is a definitive release and while I’d love a 2 disc collectors edition with an Angelina and Brad commentary, until then, which ever version you choose to purchase, you will be happy as there’s nothing really between them.

Hollywood hokum, but good hokum is always welcome. Sure, there are parallels to be drawn to another movie which I’ve mentioned already, but this is a good entertaining blast. The principals have great chemistry together, Pitt is more akin to his Oceans 11 character than the one from Se7en and Jolie demonstrates her ability in an action movie again as well as redeeming her comedic side after her first, terrible foray. My only obvious reservation is that I’d hate to see a directors cut in 6 months time, but with a good picture and great soundtrack, that’s the only reason I can see this coming out on shelves again. I wouldn’t be shocked if there’s a sequel either, but either way, this is a good movie on a good disc, let down by the lack of extras. Besides, it’s hard to knock any movie with Ms. Jolie in lingerie. Worth adding to your Christmas list.
