This past weekend, I had the fortunate surprise of being taken to see The Tourist. Dispite the reviews I've seen from major film critics, I have to disagree. I thought the film was actually quite good. It was full of action, drama, excitement- everything it promoted!
The movie starts off with a famous criminal's girlfriend (Jolie) who is being tailed by Interpol. She mysteriously gets a letter from her con boyfriend telling her to get on a train to Venice and find a guy to make Interpol believe "the tourist" is her actual boyfriend to throw them off his tail.
From that point forward Depp and Jolie are thrown through numerous obstacles, and try to survive the Venetion police and an angry mob boss.
All in all, I really like the movie. I didn't love it, but it was still good. So if you are looking for a good action move with the beautiful Angelina Jolie and the brute Johnny Depp, then you'll like this movie too!
