Although this action-romance suffers from weak writing and one too many explosions, the chemistry generated by onscreen couple Pitt and Jolie is palpable enough to make this a thoroughly enjoyable summer action flick.

Mr. & Mrs. Smith works on almost every level and against all odds.
Top CriticThe couple's dark, deadpan banter is amusing, particularly during a car chase in which they rapidly exchange some home truths. But there's a coldness to their characters that is never resolved.
Have we lost our minds and souls so completely to celebrity worship that drivel like Mr. and Mrs. Smith can thrive and prosper?
Very good.
A movie so in love with itself it hardly needs us at all.
The studio must have reasoned that Jolie and Brad Pitt are movie stars, so anything they do would be seen as fun and attractive -- and what could be more fun and attractive than their trying to kill each other and just about everybody else in the movie?
One of the most entertaining and most successful movie star pictures of its decade.
The pretty onscreen union of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie is the only thing "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" offers an audience beyond a relentlessly repetitive series of gunfights and car chases wherein so many bullets are fired that you feel like you're witnessing a
I wanted to enjoy it, I really, really did. But I couldn't.
Mr. and Mrs. Smith is a playful film, sort of a War of the Roses by way of True Lies, and it never tries to preach or give its characters some crisis of conscience.
A sexy action romp with the impossibly beautiful Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, Mr and Mrs Smith is a sizzler.
A jovial, half-smart domestic comedy in which domesticity itself is a joke.
Married assassins are contracted to kill each other. Not for young ones.
When a film sets out to be funny, slick, action-packed, and stylish, and it is, you have to give it some credit.
If you're willing to believe your spouse when he tells you that the reason he's been staying out late at night is that he's a hitman, then Mr. & Mrs. Smith may be just the tongue-in-cheek thriller for you.
If you're willing to believe your spouse when he tells you that the reason he's been staying out late at night is that he's a hitman, then Mr. & Mrs. Smith may be just the tongue-in-cheek thriller for you.
Simon Kinberg's script feels phoned in, while Doug Liman's direction, adept with the massive explosions which dot the film, utterly fails at generating any romantic magic.
A fun little action romp that will play well with the audience it is aiming for -- so long as they don't go in with any major expectations.
Audience Reviews for Mr. & Mrs. Smith
Super Reviewer
This is a film for people who like their films big, dumb and full of action. Mr. & Mrs. Smith is totally pointless film with lack of anykind of style. It is full of idiotic mayhem where everyone is expendable for the sake of entertainment. There are many chases, shoot-outs, tricks, cadgets, explosions and guns here, but no content of anykind. And the final carnage that is supposed to be somekind of climax is just tastless and hugely over the top.
I think that this film was made only to get names like Pitt and Jolie into same film. The end result leaves only a bad taste to your mouth.
