Overall, I enjoyed this movie, but it had its down moments so I gave it 7 out of 10.
The best thing about this movie are the leads, the movie working as a whole however because many actors provided good support. For instance, soon enough the um "good guys" (at least those we are rooting for) amount to a three person team, the Harry Potter 'third wheel' coming up on the rear. Each adds a nice touch. The villains and mother also work as does the person who helps Emily Blunt early on.
The movie has a leisurely pace that overall works though it gets a bit boring toward the end. This allows us to enjoy the characters.
I was a bit put off by the easy killing of various people, including a couple who we basically don't want dead. The movie isn't exactly "realistic" in some ways, so I'm not sure if that was necessary. I also am a bit put off by May/December romances -- in fact, Blunt played the daughter of her love interest here in an earlier film! But, they had pretty good chemistry.
Overall, I had fun and it's well recommended, even for theater prices.
