“This Means War” Review & *GIVEAWAY*

Are you excited for This Means War to hit stores everywhere on May 22nd via Blu-Ray, DVD, and Digital Copy?  We watched the movie last week and laughed hysterically the whole way through!  If you haven’t seen it yet, it is definitely worth a date night – has everything a good chick-flick and action-adventure movie should.  Everyone will love it!

The world’s deadliest CIA operatives, FDR Foster (Pine) and Tuck (Hardy) are inseparable partners and best friends until they fall for the same woman (Witherspoon). Having once helped bring down entire enemy nations, they are now employing their incomparable skills and an endless array of high-tech gadgetry against their greatest nemesis – each other.

In This Means War, Lauren doesn’t automatically fall for FDR; it takes some getting used to the idea before she agrees to go on a date with him. This isn’t the first film where the characters didn’t start off on the right foot but soon enough had second thoughts.  Here are a few other classic favorites where love proves that sometimes it needs a second shot -

• MARGARET & ANDREW from The Proposal

To say Andrew wasn’t fond of Margaret at first would be an understatement. In The Proposal, a pushy and manipulative boss, Margaret (Sandra Bullock), forces her young assistant, Andrew (Ryan Reynolds) to marry her in order to keep her visa status in the US and avoid being deported back to Canada. As part of the deal, Andrew demands her to promise him a promotion. However, a skeptical INS agent thinks they’re committing a fraud and vows to test the couple in a few weeks. As Andrew plans to fly home for his grandma’s 90th birthday, so does Margaret. Tensions grow and hilarity ensue as two people who didn’t get along start to see each other in a different light while being in the middle of small town Sitka, Alaska.

• ANDIE & BEN in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days

What started off as a challenge for two head-strong career-driven individuals eventually becomes a stepping stone for falling in love. In How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Andie Anderson (Kate Hudson) is a writer for a woman’s magazine whose new piece is all about all the don’ts that women do that eventually drive men away. To write her piece, she vows to date someone and do all the things women do that make men break up with them all within a 10-day time frame. Benjamin Barry (Matthew McConaughey) is an exec who wants to land the new client – a billionaire who’s in the diamond business – by proving to his boss that he knows how to sell diamonds because he can make women fall in love with him. These two paths cross and as they try to set out their goals, one of them eventually wins.

• VIVIAN & EDWARD in Pretty Woman

One of the most beloved love-story in recent pop culture, Pretty Woman tells the story of a successful businessman, Edward Lewis, who upon getting lost on Hollywood Boulevard meets a charming prostitute, Vivian Ward. Though she was only meant to assist him to find his destination, Edward invites her to stay with him in his penthouse suite in Los Angeles and escort him to social events. Though their relationship began as a “working” one, things progressed and they soon learn to understand each other’s world and backgrounds.
