As is true in most buddy pictures, the real love in This Means War is between FDR and Tuck. Pine and Hardy are an odd choice as Men Who Bond. Pine behaves like a player on Entourage; Hardy broods as if he thinks dating is torture. But as a result, they’re kind of cute in an itchy and scratchy way, bumping shoulders in a pantomime of what men do in love and war. |

ReelViews: James Berardinelli
This Means War is not funny enough to succeed as a comedy. It’s not emotionally deft enough to succeed as a romance. And it’s not exciting enough to succeed as an action film. It’s a high-energy, fast-paced explosion of moments that can be edited together to make a compelling trailer. |

The film’s focus on the contest between the two agents does throw the film off-balance. |
