IT’S SPY VS. SPY IN THE ULTIMATE BATTLE
FOR ONE WOMAN’S AFFECTION


Reese Witherspoon, Chris Pine and Tom Hardy Form the
Perfect Love Triangle in this Action Packed Comedy

They are the CIA’s best, trained for any situation…except one. Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment plays the ultimate spy game as two best friends fight for the right of one woman’s hand in THIS MEANS WAR, coming to Blu-ray, DVD and Digital Download May 22.

Starring Academy Award® winner Reese Witherspoon* (Walk the Line), Chris Pine (Star Trek) and Tom Hardy (The Dark Knight Rises), the laugh-out-loud comedy gets even better on Blu-ray with three alternate endings that answer the question – what if she chose the other guy? 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.

I love movies that have romance, comedy and action all in one and this one has it all! Lauren (Reese Witherspoon) hasn't dated any guys for a while and when her best friend Trish (Chelsea Handler) encourages her to go out with two different guys the comedy ensues. It was fun watching FDR (Chris Pine) and Tuck (Tom Hardy) who are best friends try to win over Lauren. They are spies so they have all this technology at their fingertips and they use it to find out everything about Lauren so she will fall in love with them.

They also use all the technology to sabotage the others date. I loved it when FDR has Lauren on a date and is talking about art and has someone reading about the art on the internet and telling him what to say to Lauren to make it sound like he knew something about art but Tuck takes over the line to FDR's ear piece and starts telling him to say the wrong things and FDR starts repeating everything he says. I was cracking up. My hubby and I enjoyed watching this movie together.

The special features have deleted scenes and a couple alternate endings that are fun to watch. You have to watch the deleted scene of Lauren freaking out. It was hilarious!
