How many other Smiths are there?
How widely are they dispersed, geographically speaking?
That makes for a really strong installment, delivering on both world-building and an especially successful relationship story.
(More on that later.)
But when John spots John-2s company card, he recognizes it immediately.
John-2 has been doing this for several years longer than John, but he still really enjoys it.
Eager to make more spy friends, he basically invites himself and his wife Jane-2 (Parker Posey!)
over for dinner, an immediate red flag that Im furious our Smiths didnt even think to question.
Thereisan eventual reveal, and one I didnt expect, butMr.
& Mrs. Smithisnt really about big plot twists (so far, at least).
It turns out Jane-2 wasnt John-2s first Jane (if you’re free to keep that straight).
At least John and Jane get all the earnings, a whopping $375,000.
Maybe super high-risk is overrated.
And also, what does John-2 mean that John is the only one hes ever run into by accident?
How would you get to know other Smiths otherwise?
At first, John-2 thinks John used the machete on a bunch of teenagers.
His psychopathic response: Well, John, theyre young.
Probably easier to fight off, right?
He also makes sure to let John know that Eminem opened a restaurant called Moms Spaghetti.
Trying to cry, Jane watches a video entitled Former Ballerina With Alzheimers Dances to Swan Lake.
