Billed As: The true story of two assassins who fall in love in 1942 Casablanca while on a mission to kill a German official.

Hype: Brad Pitt and Marion Cotillard lead a star-studded cast; war time romance spells intrigue and Robert Zemeckis is in charge (and he knows how to spin a great story). Paramount clearly suspect they're on to a good thing, as they've positioned it firmly with Oscars in mind.

This levels somewhere between the gentler spy fair of Bridge Of Spies and Mr & Mrs Smith - with a twist that forces the couple apart after they're married, and sounds like a winner.
