Knight and Day

[Matt]

God help me, this film looks like it could be quite a bit of fun. I love the trailers, and they seem to have always provoked a positive reaction from the audiences that I've been with. Could it be a hit? We'll see.

It looked like they were doing nationwide sneak previews of this last Saturday night. I was wanting to go, but we ended up getting back into town too late. Did anyone catch this?

[Abraham Smashington]

Netflix for me. Not a fan of Diaz. however, Cruise looks like he's having fun and I like it.

[Ed Hocken]

It could be good, but it feels like it should have been made 10 to 15 years ago.

Cameron Diaz has a weird joker smile.

[Matt]

There are 3 reviews (all positive) on RT at the moment...I like the fact that one of them favorably compares it to 'Charade'.

And yeah, not a big fan of Diaz either, but apparently she's pretty good in this flick. She CAN deliver when given the right script, and apparently this one plays to her strengths.

[Lisa]

It's tempting... it looks like so much action movie schlock, but I do like Cruise. He always gives good entertainment, no matter how weird his personal life is. I love the part in the commercial where he's moving his hand up and down to show Cameron Diaz her chances of survival with him or without him.

[Matt]

From what I read, it sounds like it's quite funny. Most of the humor comes from the fact that he's always polite and completely unflappable, even in the midst of exceedingly crazy situations. He plays it straight and doesn't TRY and be funny, so it all works.

It isn't a MUST SEE in the theater for me, but it's definitely something that's on my radar, especially if the reviews continue to be good for it.

Troy, have you seen this yet?

[patronsaintofcheeseburgers]

I might check it out, it does look fun. Cruise, although a complete nut job, usually delivers the goods.

[Ed Hocken]

It's probably good fluff. And in this summer of suck, it's better than nothing.

For all the shit Tom gets, he still consistently brings it.

Every fucking time.

Yes, he's crazy... but he rocks it. I'll still wait for the BD though.

[Ben Thomas]

I think in a summer where there are maybe 4 films worth seeing, I can't afford to not see this. It looks like fun, I like Diaz given the right material, I like Cruise in nearly everything for the last 15 years and James Mangold sure is a reliable helmer, who manages to elevate otherwise mediocre material.

The only black mark this film gets at this point is that horrible, horrible title.

[Matt]

agreed on the shitty title. I guess that it was originally called 'Wichita'...decide for yourself if that's an improvement or not.

[Martin]

For all the shit Tom gets, he still consistently brings it.

Every fucking time.

Yes, he's crazy... but he rocks it. I'll still wait for the BD though.

Same here. I'd punch him if I could, but he's good onscreen, Scientology or not. That movie looks fun.

I had 2 movie I'll see for sure this summer, Inception and Pilgrim, but the A-team and this might slip too.

[Ben Thomas]

Inception, Toy Story 3, Scott Pilgrim, The A-Team and The Expendables are all theatricals for me.

And this. And yeah, I liked Wichita as titles go, but I can see why a studio would want to change it.

[BillyG]

I hate Diaz, but I'm aching to see this. I love Tommy despite the nutso.

[Captain Russ]

Seein' it despite the fact Les Grossman still exists.
