The Spies Who Loved Me.



Spy comedies have a decent track record, what with the likes of Austin Powers and Naked Gun being generally successful at the box office. It probably wasn’t much of a surprise for a new one to emerge sooner or later and that movie is This Means War.

I suppose you could say the main problem with This Means War is that instead of being just a comedy it mixes rather dangerously in the dreaded romantic comedy genre and though it definitely does, it isn’t a terrible movie for it.

Cage Rage.

Mark Wahlberg’s The Fighter made a large impact on the movie scene earlier this year, so it probably isn’t too much of a surprise to see another fight movie pop up towards the end of it.

Starring the ever impressive Tom Hardy, Warrior is like the brutal step-brother of The Fighter, grappling and pummelling its way to our affection.

Is it as good as The Fighter? Well, no. But it’s a good effort all the same.
