Not much is to be expected from director McG, but "This Means War" had its share of enjoyable moments. Unfortunately, in between those moments were other moments that were not enjoyable. Ultimately, Tom Hardy was very charming and some gags and action scenes were a lot of fun, but otherwise most of the cast was grating.
