Mr. White goes after Mr. and Mrs. Smith

Once again, Armond White proves it's his job to spout socio-political moral hysteria like a drunk vomiting his night's fun into the toilet. Wrong as he may be, his reviews are always amusing to read. My quite different take will be online shortly.
"[Mr. and Mrs. Smith] proffers gleaming high-tech weaponry and high-fashion costuming to camouflage its unexamined ideology. (Jolie in diamond earrings and tinted sunglasses makes a very distracting killer.) John and Jane are not just pin-ups prettifying political nonsense; they're high fascist models selling a Western pop-cult jamboree of homeland cruelty and brutal espionage.

Is it too soon to call this violent trash the year's most repugnant film?"

Aw, Armond. Come on. Settle down. I'm sure that somewhere, someone is working on a sequel to Sahara just for you.
