GOOD NIGHT IN: KNIGHT AND DAY (DVD) ***


"Directed by James Mangold, mastermind behind the brilliant 3:10 to Yuma (2007), Knight & Day sees two of Twistedwing's favourite moviestars Tom Cruise (Mission Impossible III) and Cameron Diaz (There's Something About Mary) come together in this thrilling, and surprisingly good, action-adventure movie.

June (Diaz) meet a mysterious stranger (Cruise) on a routine flight. But she soon discovers he is a fugitive superspy who thrusts her into a globetrotting cat-and-mouse chase. As the bullets and sparks fly, along with some nifty one-liners, June must decide if she can really trust this "Knight" in shining armour. It's an exhausting ride that eventually runs out of steam, recycling its best gags and set-pieces time and time again - but with Cruise and Diaz its main protagonists, Knight and Day is still an entertaining journey."
