    Robert Zemeckis movie with Brad Pitt and Marion Cotillard.

    Allied follows Max Vatan (Pitt) and Marianne Beausejour (Cotillard), two assassins who fall in love during a mission in Casablanca in 1942 to kill a German ambassador. A future together, however, is thrown into tumult when twisty secrets from their pasts cast doubts on their love for each other.

    The chemistry between Cotillard and Pitt looks very good ... too good, some are saying. :eek:

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    edit: Saw it, and it was pretty good! I didn't see any of the trailers so didn't have any expectations, and it certainly went a different direction than it should've. Immediately afterwards I thought the ending was
    a little rushed and disappointing, but in reality it was probably inevitable. Still, part of you wants to see them get away

    I saw it this week.
    While I did enjoy it, I don't think there was anything special about it.
    Any number of endings were possible.
    I didn't like that we saw her character reading aloud the letter at the end.
    I think it would have been more effective had it shown the daughter growing up while the letter was read as a voice over.
    And actually, sometimes it's okay when they don't all "live happily ever after" not everyone does in reality.

    Brad Pitt doesn't look almost 53!

    I enjoyed it but felt they had the scope to make a classic given the strength of the and originality of the story but for whatever reason they just made a so-so, not very well fleshed out, thriller.

    Cotillard went from a determined spy to a whiny housewife pretty quickly thats what made me think she was spy for the time it was in question

    Watched some of this tonight. I cant see anything good about it at all (apart from Marion Cottilard and that is only to look at) . I gave up after an hour its just like a mills and boon (or whatever they were called) film
