This Means War (review)
I’d call this How to Lose a Spy in 10 Days, except all along I was rooting for nothing but for Reese Witherspoon to dump both Tom Hardy and Chris Pine…
CIA
Safe House (review)
Oo oo oo, it’s CIA action porn when Safe House finally gets going, all mysterious black SUVs and “kill the surveillance cameras” and stoic badassery all round…
Abduction (review)
I’m so excited cuz it’s like Taylor Lautner made a movie just for Team Jacob! Except he’s not a werewolf or anything silly or fantasy like that — he’s a real teenager with real problems. Like being the secret child of top international spies.

So many dull yet dreary questions raised by this episode! But perhaps the most pressing one is this: Is Esther the dumbest CIA agent ever?
