KNIGHT AND DAY

Plot:

When June Haven (Diaz) an average everyday girl just trying to pick up an auto part for her car has an un-expectant run in with the mysterious Roy Miller (Cruise) at the airport, little did she know that her life would be changed forever. From hijacks, plane crashes, kidnappings and shoot outs, she doesn’t know what is going on until Miller tells her that he is a spy and that she helped transport some type of never draining battery. Soon she encounters his superiors who tell her that he has become a rogue agent and that she should help them take him down. Confused and in the middle she doesn’t know who or what to believe, but realizes that as long as she is with Miller she has a good chance at staying alive.

Reel Talk:

This movie should have been called Mission Impossible IV, because Cruise pretty much emulates his character from the Impossible series, only with a touch more of a humorous side. The chemistry between Cruise and Diaz was fairly good, not great but not bad either. Plenty of action even if most of it was quite unbelievable, but still made for a good entertaining movie. With all of Cruises whacky antics, he needed this jolt to get him back on his acting track.
