Hollywood does it again! The formula is an old one. Take two incredibly beautiful actors, both huge box office draws in their own rights, add well-worn plot devices and stir. Season with a pinch of action, a smidge of romance, and a dash of drama, and watch the money roll in. That’s not to say the movie won’t be fun, it looks entertaining. The formula may be old, but it works. You can’t argue with success.
