GamerTab That was an excellent one.

VividSimon Simply Perfect

VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

niklas47302 Allied 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.

Kevin I disagree with people that did not like the ending. I thought it was excellent. Fairy tale ending? Maybe not, but an excellent ending nonetheless.

mrharrypaulson I always thought of Robert Zemeckis as a hit or miss director. I hated Beowulf but I loved Death Becomes Her for instance. Allied falls right in the middle. An old fashion WWII drama and when I say old fashion I mean, musty, tired. Mr and Mrs Smith territory but with the major plus of Marion Cottillard. She is wonderful. Brad Pitt, who I love, looked like a special effect and being in a Robert Zemeckis movie I thought that he might be. Very strange. The simple premise of discovering that your spouse is not who you thought she was, opens a world of dramatic opportunities but there is something about Robert Zemeckis that makes me think he doesn't really care about the human interaction, no. he seems, always, much more focus in the special effects. Allies is no exception and in fact it has a couple of breathtaking visual coups. Unfortunately the actual drama left me completely cold.
