Reese Witherspoon may have been the leading lady in ‘This Means War’ but it was her costars Chelsea Handler and Tom Hardy who deserved a big round of applause.  

Witherspoon stars as Lauren, a consumer products tester who dates two CIA operatives at the same time.

When the agents and best friends FDR (Chris Pine) and Tuck (Hardy) find out they are dating the same woman, the claws come out as they battle it out for her affection using extreme spy tactics.

The love triangle gets even messier when villain Heinrish, played by ‘Inglorious Basterds' star Til Schweiger, seeks his revenge on the agents over the death of his brother.

Hardy injected his cheeky British humour as Tuck who charms his love interest with his sweet and charismatic persona. The actor's romantic comedy part shows his versatility as a leading man after playing more serious roles in ‘Batman,’ ‘Inception’ and ‘Tinker Tailer Soldier Spy’.

US TV host Handler was the other stand out as she brought her famously candid sense of humour to her role as Trish who acts as a sounding board for her best friend Lauren as she struggles to choose between the two men.
