After seeing the high-definition trailer of Knight and Day in Youtube I was crazily waiting for it's release, and I vowed to catch it only in theater. I was totally impressed by the trailer, and the kind of storyline of which usually I'm a regular watcher. This is undoubtedly my type of movie - in which a spy and something mystery is involved.
Finally, after it released I watched it today. I enjoyed it perfectly with its twisted turns and fast paced actions and comedies. The stunts performed with touch of CGI are great and entertaining. But for sure, to watch all the stunt scenes we need to keep our brain-logic aside for two hours, and we can never find out the logic of why 'a hero is always best'. After a successful Mission Impossible-3 (2006) Tom Cruise returned with a hard core action thriller, mixed with romantic comedies. In my judgment, the stunts and action angles carried out here are much improved and interesting than his Mission Impossible series.
The storyline is simple and straight forward with common happenings - a man meets a woman and slowly something starts to happen between them. Cruise plays as secret agent Roy Miller who is skilled in delivering timely duties to his mission. In the beginning his role seems to be in dark side but with dangerous purpose, but slowly the real facts appear. He always follow June (Cameron Diaz)for unknown purposes, and protects her from goons. But there is always something as a reason behind these happenings. After interval we get to know the real identity of Roy Miller with short background.
Cruise is perfect enough to opt for this kind of heroic roles, and entertain his fans. His fans would certainly enjoy with this male dominated movie. Cameron has lesser parts to show, other than her feminine characteristics. Certainly, so far, this is my favorite movie starred by Cameron Diaz. She appears terrifically hot and smart in her role with Cruise - much improved than in Vanilla Sky. But I think we could have seen hotter scenes between the 2 stars, as they have a sizzling chemistry.
After 3:10 to Yuma, a western classical, James Mangold is back with this contemporary action thriller. His masterpiece Walk the Line or Identity are also memorable.
At last, Knight and Day is not a masterpiece but definitely worth a watch, and entertaining till the end. Hope to see Cruise and Cameron come back together again.
