Review
Wrapped in a recognisable summer
formula, and saturated with some of the most hilarious and cheeky action
and dialogue on this side of the millennium, Knight and Day is a
delightful crowd-pleaser filled with the right amount of energy, humour
and thoughtlessness for hot summer evenings. In addition to James
Mangold's enterprising direction, an industrious and unrestrained Tom
Cruise, and a delightfully loose and inventive script makes this one of
the best film in the genre in a while. Never mind logic and realism when
the stage has been set as well as Mangold does here. It should be said
that the fun does dry up a bit towards the end, also when it comes to
the romantic vibe between Cruise and Diaz, but luckily, the good old
parents keep up the good stuff.
