Wow! Such a good movie.

... View MoreThe movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
... View MoreThe tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
... View MoreAllied is set in the midst of WW2. It sees Brad Pitt and Marion Cotillard as secret agents in Casa Blanca, where they start their romantic adventure. They end up in London where it turns out that Marion is perhaps a double agent for the Germans.The entire film is shot with an absurd amount of filter and Hollywood esqu likeness. To further separate the audience, the script and dialogue do not allow any chemistry to be developed between the central characters. As this is integral in the start of any film, I could not engage fully.Nevertheless, in the second act it is learned that Marion is perhaps a double agent. Although rather predictable, from this point forward the pace is picked up and keeps you guessing until the end. This is its strongest point.Allied is supposedly loosely based on a true story, yet portrays scenes of an impossible and almost absurd nature. To exemplify this is a pregnancy that takes place in the middle of a war zone. There is also an extremely cheesy sex scene in a car while the camera is being spun and sand is thrown at the car windows. These scenes feel like they are forcing you to engage with the characters but just leave you laughing at the absurdity. Although it is a corny mess with the character interactions, the thriller aspects created an overall enjoyable experience.
