Knight and Day (2010)

A world changing discovery has the hidden forces behind the scenes chasing each other through the streets of major cities on at least two continents exchanging gunfire and blowing things to hell. Another action packed shooter full of cool car crashes, ridiculous quantities of brass hitting the ground, and all the butt puckering thrills they can cram into a movie where the leading man is shorter than the leading woman. As much fun as it was watching this flick, they still manage to maintain annoying stereotypes as a form comic relief. It works only so well and comes at a heavy price. It didn't kill this one for me, but it was teasing the line in a couple places. It seems Scientology, despite making Cruise insane, hasn't hurt his onscreen abilities. Unfortunately time is not being so kind to Cameron Diaz who looked a little haggard. Of course having a character who couldn't decide whether to take charge or be the annoying drama queen with a high pitched scream didn't help her much. But that's nitpicking isn't it? A high speed hit of adrenaline is what you get with this one, along with cool FX and a Tom Cruise smile that 007 would be proud of.
