Good action at a fast pace! Tom Cruise plays a James Bond spy type that meets Diaz in the airport and uses her to complete his mission and that's when the ride starts! A mission impossible/James bond/naked gun mashup that's good to watch on cable.
... View MoreVanilla Sky 2? Hmm...maybe not. Charlie's Angel? Nope, not feeling that either. Mission Impossible 4.5? Getting warmer. Tom Cruise: Typical Action Movie 9? Much better! I mean what do you expect Cruise to be doing in an action blockbuster other than shooting enemies, riding a motorbike in the middle of Sevilla with Diaz on top on him, jumping off cars in rush hour and well...just being himself. Nothing new here. A secret agent is on the run from the CIA who are tasked with obtaining Zephyr, a modernised perpetual energy battery. An innocent woman boarding a flight gets caught up in the shenanigans...and so the mindless action commences. This is easily Mangold's weakest directorial effort. I appreciate the buoyancy of his style, the pace and narrative felt light as it speeds along a nearly two hour runtime. The action set pieces and sequences were executed cleanly, maintaining frantic chaos with subtle visual comedy that is accompanied by Powell's Parisian score. Cruise commits to the stunts and explosive action as always, which is the primary appeal for this films. His chemistry with Diaz is perfectly satisfactory as the two bounce off each other well. However, no film will convince me that Diaz is a good actress. Again, like her previous credits, she overacts every little emotion. Shocked? She'll start screaming flailing her arms around. Sad? She'll drop to the floor in a puddle of tears. Happy? She'll laugh for about an hour. I just can't warm to her, it's all so false. The plot is a typical formulaic secret agent story where the rapid pacing conceals its genericism. The A-list supporting cast were wasted and sidelined to solely focus on the main stars. And, to top it all, the usage of green screen was highly noticeable and detracts from the production's authenticity. Yet, I simply just cannot hate this film. Sometimes a lighthearted mindless blockbuster just does the trick to fill that empty gap in our minds. Knight and Day consistently does that for me.

Cameron Diaz and Tom Cruise are so hot! If I were a girl, I'd love Tom way more than I already do now but since I'm a boy, I love Cameron so much. She's the best. Tom is so jacked in this! Look at that body! If I were a girl, Tom would be at the top of my super hotties list but since I'm a boy, Cameron is. She's so pretty. Tom is seriously an intense actor! What a stud! If I were a girl, I'd straight marry Tom in a heartbeat but since I'm a boy, I'd straight marry Cameron. I love her. Tom's got a great smile! If I were a girl, oh forget it, Tom Cruise is so good looking. There I said it. Can we please move on now? Cameron Diaz is the most gorgeousest girl ever! Since I am a boy, I enjoy Knight and Day for focusing on Cameron but if I were a girl.........Cameron looks unreal in her tropical bikini. I am not even kidding. Oh, his parents last name is Knight and she's June, which is a month which is loaded with days, oh okay, I get it. I get it. This is a fun movie for both sexes!
