This film had a lot of potential, but I think the studio wasn't exactly sure what kind of film they wanted. The alternate ending had a LOT more action and made much more sense, but it looks like they wanted more of a rom-com. The ending of the theatrical/extended cut felt a bit abrupt. I think the script had to look much better than the final product given some of the actors they were able to cast in minor roles (Rosemary Harris, Angela Bassett), and some who never even made it into the theatrical cut (David Koechner, Rebel Wilson.) (And poor Angela Bassett, playing the cliched angry black authority figure and getting less screen time than Chelsea Handler.) Finally, I'm not sure what I found more unbelievable, that the CIA actually employs a Brit as a secret agent, or that two guys would actually fight over Reese Witherspoon. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 04:11, 14 October 2013 (EDT) | |||

It's clear the ending of the film was recut, and the trailer must've been pieced together from an older cut. The Blu Ray came with a lot of these deleted scenes and alternate scenes, but none of them contain the shots below. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 02:54, 14 October 2013 (EDT) | |||

The names of the characters that Chris Pine and Tom Hardy play don't seem to be listed on IMDB. Can they be found somewhere else? --redram355 06:52, 20 October 2011 (CDT)

Great date film! I'm curious about this Paul Maurice credited as a 'CIA Advisor'; isn't he the one who has the LIDAR organisation that provided aid to quite a few films?Foofbun 18:18, 25 February 2012 (CST)
