The reason this new movie doesn't work is a) if it's a comedy with action, then it's a poor premise. Who in the CIA tries to kill their coworker over a woman? Just a poor premise.
b) Who would fight over Reese Witherspoon? I see men trying to kill themselves for Eva Mendes or a young Sophia Loren or Bridgett Bardot, but Reese doesn't ooze sexuality.

lovethefuture says ...

Witherspoon is a hell of an actress who is entirely miscast in THIS IS WAR.

Ask yourself this: would Pine or Hardy fight over this woman in real life? I seriously doubt it. Mendes is a great suggestion. Amber Heard also comes to mind. Ditto Charlize Theron (who is getting older but still very sexy).

Also, Chelsea Handler blows.

comment #5

LexG says ...

Mendes isn't that sexy. She also looks 45. Also the "(My beloved lame actress) is hotter than Witherspoon" angle is surely not why Wells posted this...

Has Jeff actually SEEN "This is War"?

Answer: Of course not.

comment #6

Jesse Crall says ...

Maybe Reese just isn't that deep. All the girls I know in their late teens/early 20's basically enjoy rom-coms and Twilight. Who says Reese is any different? Election came out when her career was just starting to rock and roll and it may have been something she took as a boost, not any sort of passion project. She may just be the type of women who like fluffy films with easy shoots. Either that or she really needs a better agent.

And yeah, Reese Witherspoon's the type of chick you go for AFTER you killed your CIA buddy to win over Amber Heard who promptly dumps you for someone cooler...Hmmm, with comments like that I'm not exactly deep myself.

This Means War wasn't that awful. I've seen a lot worse. And Reese is actually pretty freaking hot in it.

And I'm assuming Wells didn't think much of Walk the Line, the movie that won her an Oscar, since he made no mention of it.

Mendes is sexy as sin and looks nothing close to 45. You're a fucking idiot Lex. For this and pretty much all your posts.

comment #10

Jesse Crall says ...

I think arguing over who's sexy and who isn't is like trying to figure out, well, the best movie of any given year. It's so subjective and while it's fun, nothing ever really gets solved.

But yeah, if Eva Mendes looks 45 then I've got 1 foot in the grave already.

patches23 says ...

Tracy Flick is an awesome role, but one that's right up there for Reese is Man In The Moon, her very first when she was 15 or so.

After seeing this there can be no doubt that she is a deep actress.

My memory is fading but wasn't Pleasantville a good one for her too?

comment #14

Mathieu says ...

I remember discovering Witherspoon in Freeway, and then Election just turned her into my favorite actress. I didn't care for Legally Blonde, but I thought she was still great in it and it seemed like a smart way to break into the mainstream without sacrificing her feisty / subversive side. But next thing you know, she's in Sweet Home Alabama and becomes another boring romcom queen. I actually forgot she was in Walk The Line until I read the comments... Which says a lot about where her career is today (or my memory, but that's another issue). She's basically Kate Hudson. What a waste.

comment #15

Krillian says ...

Reese Witherspoon >> Kate Hudson

comment #16

Gabe@ThePlaylist says ...

Why are we pretending there are a bunch of Tracy Flick roles out there for ANY actress? It's tried and true - there are only so many roles for women out there. Supportive Wife. Kindly Mom. Bitchy Girlfriend. Nondescript Love Interest. And, since we're in the 21st century, Zooey Deschanel.

Reese, who I never REALLY liked, did as good a job managing her career as anyone. She got some lead roles. She won an Oscar. She worked in some different genres with different directors. And she did a movie like Election, a stone-cold fucking masterpiece of acidic anger and ugliness that has the balls to introduce the ballbusting Tracy Flick with someone else saying, "Her pussy got SO wet."

"This Means War" is a misstep, because it's a poorly made film where nothing works, and it will hurt her career, much like How Do You Know. But at this point, she's had a more-than-solid run, no?

comment #17

Heinz, the Baron Krauss von Espy says ...

I love how Tracy's campaign slogan "PICK FLICK', looks like "PICK FUCK" on her election day cupcakes. The whole thing would make break into giggles like a Japanese schoolgirl weeks after I saw the movie.

"PICK FUCK" (titter, titter).

Someone else must have picked up on this too, because if you look at the cover art on the Blu-Ray, the bottom of the "PICK FLICK" campaign button is framed out and looks exactly like what I just described.

comment #18

Soma says ...

Reese's choices suck post-Oscar, but the fact that she actually got an Oscar just 7 years after she was billed below Sarah Michelle Gellar--is a pretty amazing feat. She was determined to get to the top and she did.

I think she could've been a candidate for a role like Mavis Gary, but I don't think she would play unlikable now.

comment #19

JLC says ...

I think it also bears mentioning that she had two kids and raised a family in there. Maybe she didn't always want to play Tracy Flick. I'm sure she's broken hearted that her career choices didn't meet Jeffery's approval.

Errol Flynnn says ...

I'm with Lex on this one. Mendes isn't that hot. Everytime i see i shot with her and Gosling, i wish he'd move on to something better. Plus, all i see is the meth head in her. She loved the meth for a while...

Wait a minute, tell me more about this Man in the Moon... Can't believe I've never seen that, of all classic RW movies...

Classic Spoon:

Cruel Intentions
Election
Walk the Line
Freeway
TWILIGHT WHERE SHE'S NUDE WITH PAUL NEWMAN
Best LAID Plains
Legally Blonde (aka LOOK AT HER)
The Hoku PERFECT DAY video
How Do You Know (LOOK AT HER and MASSIVELY underappreciated)
American Psycho
SFW

I don't care what ANYONE says, WITHERSPOON RULES, one of my favorite actresses, HUGE fan, GUARANTEED I'm buying a ticket every time no matter what genre-- she is the Triple Threat a) Hotness b) Makes Good Movies c) TOTAL charisma. Been on board with Witherspoon since Fear/Freeway and she STAYS HOT, funny, awesome etc through any genre.

ALSO I lover her Type A bossy personality... Usually I like women who are demure and VERY fragile and submissive, but Reese is kind of saucy in this button-down, bitchy, sort of unpleasant way where she means business and would tell you EXACTLY what to do and would expect to get her way at all times. For someone without low self-esteem, Reese would be a pretty good deal because she could just yell at you all the time and you'd take it because then your mind wouldn't wander and SHE IS HOT.

SPOON.

Witherspoon is one of the few actresses who can be both cold and warm at the same time. That's a real gift. She'd be a great Lois Lane.

Luke Y. Thompson says ...

I'd put her tough-talking biker-chick sidekick role in PENELOPE up there as a slightly risky choice. An entire movie about Christina Ricci having the nose of a pig was in no way guaranteed to be a hit - and indeed, I don't think it was much of one.

Rev. Slappy says ...

Election is the best high school movie ever made.

comment #28

LexG says ...

Not quite: Risky Business, Last American Virgin, Fast Times at Ridgemont High are all better than Election.

Election's REALLY good, but it's still in Payne's early SATIRE! days, like Citizen Ruth, before he started doing the humanist-sadsack middle-American ennui thing 100%; That's not to say the BRODERICK stuff doesn't work, because it's FUCKING GOLD, Broderick in that is an ALL-TIME classic performance and portrayal of a sadsack loser-- doesn't he stop off to wash his balls or feet or something when he thinks he's gonna score with Witherspoon? TOTAL thorough portrayal of a small, bitter, rage-case dork, 10000% relatable, and it's BRODERICK who's gold in that movie... Some of the FLICK/high school/Chris Klein stuff is more in that camp-satire snarky realm that's been done to DEATH in high school movies, even before Election.... 75% of the movie is this precise and brilliant examination of desperation and small minds... the other 25% is in that JAWBREAKER/SUGAR AND SPICE tart-tonged wah-wah HIGH SCHOOL CASTE SYSTEM comedy that seems like it's written by a bitter Mike White type ex-misfit. It's okay by those standards, but it's pretty stock then and now.

Alexander Payne seems to think that every middle American limp-dick's life can be redeemed by merely discarding the oppressive woman in his life.

Jesse Crall says ...

@LexG: I'm with you on Reese's talent/charisma all the way, but I'm also with Jeff on her career choices. But I totally forgot about American Psycho; she was hilarious in that, just totally playing up that shallow, whiny, prissy angle in a humorous way that's pretty damn difficult to do. Also, she reminds me of Reese's Cups, always a good thing.

... think Election's better than Fast Times but Risky Business and Ferris Bueller take gold and silver. In Risky, you had Tangerine Dream in the shower scene and Phil Collins on the metro. Just amazing use of music that is steeped in the 80's but still comes across as retro, not dated. And Bueller was the ultimate fantasy, with the crazy ass day, the hot girlfriend, doing something transgressive but also totally harmless...It was like what Home Alone was to 9 year olds. Hell, I even had a siamese cat named Ferris.

Part of the problem may lie in Reese's look: Very cute, very normal, fun, spunky...Her face seems a little too open for a Mavis Grey type. Like if Charlize was the American Psycho character, it wouldn't work because she could match Bateman stare for stare. Reese just gives off immediate likability which unfortunately plays better in rom-coms than in heavier genre pics.

@coxcable: Huh? Not in Sideways.

comment #32

HarveyLime says ...

I wouldn't say her choices are necessarily bad, just that the final products are lacking.

A political thriller by Gavin Hood, a James L. Brooks dramedy, and an adaptation of a bestseller (Water for Elephants). Regardless of how they finally turn out, on paper they all probably seemed like solid bets.

Eloi Wrath says ...

Lois Lane is a great suggestion for Witherspoon. Unlucky, I guess.

Election is massively overrated, to be fair. It's the Rushmore of Payne's career. Decent enough, but hugely overpraised because it was the first one that critics noticed from that particular filmmaker.

comment #37

Eloi Wrath says ...

Matthew Broderick is also TERRRRRRRRRRRRIBLE in Election, as he is in every single movie he's been in except Ferris Bueller. It's actually kind of amazing he has a career.

comment #48

LexG says ...

Winslet SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS.

Except in Little Children, I liked her in that. And in Contagion. And Titanic, which I love... And David Gale-- basically anytime where she isn't full of shit, which Winslet USUALLY is.

Also in Little Children, it went against every instinct I ever have, but she has a nude scene in that where she's all curvy and sweaty and kind of "thick," and in my brain I was like EEEEE, what is THAT about, but somehow I got SUPER turned on and actually popped a boner in the theater.

Later I punished myself like Bettany in Da Vinci Code for having such a reaction to Winslet, it was inexplicable, but she was strangely HOT in that scene.

comment #49

Jesse Crall says ...

For me, Winslet exists almost outside sexuality. I mean, she's lovely and if she was naked in front of me I'd be turned on but she's not someone who I physically fixate on in movies. She looks like a woman an old lady in a 50's novel would describe as "a great beauty." Very refined, like your friend's wife who looks really good by the pool but usually dresses kinda formally. She was perfect in Revolutionary Road playing that type.

Little Children was boss and I've never seen her act full of shit. She goes big and I guess you either believe her or you don't. Same with her boy DiCaprio.

comment #50

Raising_Kaned says ...

Hard not to post at 4:50 AM and not feel at least a little bit like Lexy-pooh.

So you actually popped a boner for a real WOMAN? Our little boy's all growns-up!

Surprised you didn't mention Heavenly Creatures on your Winslet shortlist -- aren't the girls in that like right in your sweet spot, age-wise?

comment #51

Raising_Kaned says ...

Yeah, I don't get the acting "full of shit" comment at all. I'm sure she's hit a few wrong notes here and there -- who doesn't? -- but I certainly don't remember any roles where she was just totally off from beginning to end, either (that's not to say they don't exist, just that I don't ever recall a performance of hers being "bad," or -- if she was -- I must've skipped those flicks).

comment #52

LexG says ...

Winslet is 90% awful, Witherspoon is 90% AWFUL.

K-Stew, Shailene, Dakota, Elle, Seyfried, REESE, Moretzy, Emma Stone, Mia Wasikowska are awesome 100% of the time.

comment #53

Jesse Crall says ...

From what I've seen, Winslet's given Oscar quality performances in Revolutionary Road, Eternal Sunshine, Little Children, Heavenly Creatures, Titanic, and the actual win for The Reader. I'm not saying those were necessarily the year's BEST, but they all were fantastic and challenging, the 1st two ranking as my favorites by any actress ever. That's an insane legacy for any actress, let alone one still shy of 40.

DiCaprio and Damon are probably the only other two actors to give such a big number of amazing performances at such a young age. Even legends like Streep, Pacino, Newman, etc took awhile to get their careers rocking. Winslet did Heavenly Creatures at 18 and she was a force.

comment #54

Rashad says ...

She looks like a woman an old lady in a 50's novel would describe as "a great beauty."

Perfect description.

comment #55

LexG says ...

Kristen Stewart has given 15 Oscar-worthy performances already, and she's only 21.

Also AFFLECK > Damon.

comment #56

Rashad says ...

Winslet's best is Revolutionary Road. Everything is either okay, or too self-aware/hammy. Little Children, the exception.

And I always liked Affleck more too. It's funny how everyone liked Will Hunting more, but I always wanted to hang out with the Afflecks and Cole fucking Hauser. They were the highlightss, and the best acted scene in the movie is Ben telling that "50 yr old" speech. I actually knew someone who was confused by that, and thought Affleck's character was 50 already.

comment #57

Jesse Crall says ...

@Rashad: I'm a Damon guy (The Informant! was SO underappreciated), but my favorite moment in Good Will Hunting comes at the end when
SPOILER
Affleck sees that Damon has taken off and he has this little smile on his face. His earlier speech set that moment up so well. The Williams therapy scenes have been justifiably dissed lately but everything with Damon and the Afflecks in that movie is killer.

comment #58

Raising_Kaned says ...

"Kristen Stewart has given 15 Oscar-worthy performances already, and she's only 21."

Including Best Supporting Culkin in Panic Room (zingggggdong).

"Also AFFLECK > Damon."

I know you don't mean Casey -- but if you did, I might actually consider endorsing this sentiment.

ANYWAY, since this thread has long since jumped the 3AM/Closing Time/Up All Night Off-Topic Shark,nice callout there with Affleck's little smile at the end of GWH, Jesse.

Fair to say Van Sant's probably the most underrated component of that flick? Without his smooth touch behind the camera, I'm not entirely sure how much further the Damon/Affleck matrix advances beyond the stage of Kevin Smith Troupe All-Stars.

comment #59

Chicago48 says ...

If Hollywood was making film noir again, she would fit in very well. I think she could be the Barbara Stanwyck bitch type. We read about young wives all the time who have killed their husbands or had a lover behind the back of their husbands. She could do that part.
