This Means War Ratings & Reviews
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
The best you can say about This Means War is that it would make a good date movie for couples in the witness protection program.
Film.com
Laremy Legel
Slides by on the strength of Tom Hardy.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
You can imagine how the ball got rolling on "This Means War.'' You can also imagine how the folks who rolled the ball started to lose their minds.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
Proves to be little more than the canned Spam of the movie world - bland, over-processed and cheap, even when it's spending millions engulfing highways in balls of ludicrous flame.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
An aggressively annoying movie. It isn't just bad. It grates. It frustrates. It baffles with its incompetence.
leonardmaltin.com
Leonard Maltin
Judging by the evidence, it isn't easy making a good romantic comedy, even if it has a high-concept premise like this one...
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
McG directs as if on autopilot, and while the action scenes are technically proficient they're so lacking in energy and momentum you kind of wonder if the adrenaline junkie wunderkind threw them in as some sort of afterthought.
The New Yorker
Anthony Lane
The director is McG, who allows no motion to pass without a musical energy boost.
TheWrap
Leah Rozen
In the dictionary, "frothy" is defined as being "light and entertaining but of little substance." This Means War is a totally frothy film. And that's a good thing, at least here. (Sometimes substance is overrated.)
USA Today
Claudia Puig
McG can't seem to decide whether he's making a spy action flick with romance interspersed or a rom-com peppered with action.
What the Flick?!
Alonso Duralde
It's a glossy entertainment machine -- and I was entertained.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Would be perfectly acceptable watched on the back of an airline seat or at home while you're doing housework.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Note to Witherspoon: This Means War is the sort of consumer product you're supposed to test before you win an Academy Award, not after.
NPR
Ian Buckwalter
A good parody takes a finesse that isn't in the vocabulary of McG, a bargain-basement Michael Bay more concerned with cool than coherence.
Detroit News
Tom Long
If you want some nice light yuks, "This Means War" should do the trick.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
Hardy is raffishly charming. But you don't send a grenade to do a feather's job. Which is exactly the mistake that McG, director of this earsplitting, hyperbolic love triangle, makes.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Reese Witherspoon isn't an idiot, and yet she made "This Means War," which leads to the question: Was this some temporary lapse in judgment or was this the best offer she had?
TIME Magazine
Mary F. Pols
Technically, movies don't give off a scent, but This Means War is so smarmy that it seems to reek of cheap cologne.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
A trio of appealing actors is trapped in an action-spiked romcom death-sentenced by a lack of humor, heart and a coherent reason for being.
