Review of Allied (2016) by Dspratlin — 29 Nov 2016
What’s it about?
A Canadian airman working for the British forces in World War 2 meets a beautiful hero from the French resistance. The pair go deep undercover to assassinate a German target but end up storming the beaches of each other’s hearts.
What did I think?
A lot has been made of Brad Pitt’s separation from his wife, and rumors have abounded that Pitt had a secret dalliance with his on-screen partner, Marion Cotillard. Put those rumors to bed by watching just how little chemistry these characters have together. Every escalation in their relationship seems forced and unnatural. Some would say that we’re still feeling the tragic effects of World War 2. This film makes me agree.
