Absolutely brilliant
Donald Seymour
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Come on people, how can anyone not have enjoyed this movie?! This film is like comfort food on a lazy Sunday. I'm pretty sure I had that same grinning smile throughout the entire movie that Tom Cruise had.His character was perfect, and I mean 100% perfect - including that permanent smiling grin. Cameron Diaz as the sweet little bimbo played that character to perfection. Those two together have great chemistry and should be cast together more often.The writing and directing was on point, and sure maybe sometimes a bit too much, but it's what made this film pure enjoyment.Editing and cinematography could have not been any better, and contrary to other reviews on here, I enjoyed the score.It's a well deserved 9/10 from me!

Got to say this is pretty much the same kind of formulaic undemanding fodder which kept all those Sixties, Seventies and Eighties James Bond films going for so many years, though being 2010 fodder the special effects are, courtesy of CGI, rather more spectacular.It has the usual impossibilities, a ludicrous plot, one-dimensional characters, corny dialogue, cornier jokes, plenty of chases, gunfights and fist fights and loads of different locations - Wichita, Boston, a tropical island, Austria, Seville, and the Lord knows where else. And absolutely nothing bares more than a second's thought: ask any sensible question and the whole thing falls apart. But then it isn't supposed to be anything other than that kind of film and if you like the formula, you might well enjoy it. Me, I only watched the full film out of duty because I knew I would be writing this review.Tom Cruise does his Tom Cruise thing, Cameron Diaz her Cameron Diaz thing and the rest of the cast follow orders and provide the scenery. I'm giving it a 5 because, 5 is halfway - it isn't bad for the kind of thing it is, but it's not very good either. Don't let me put you off: if you went for all the 007 schlock, Knight And Day is perhaps for you, but if I never have to see another potboiler like this ever will still be too soon.I only started watching it because it was directed by James Mangold who made the far, far superior - and highly recommended - Identity. Here he just does a workmanlike job and collects his paycheck.

Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz star in this romantic action-comedy about an unfailingly polite (and somewhat crazy) spy and the girl next door he falls for. No matter your opinion on Tom Cruise, he is a hoot here as he spoofs his own "invincible action hero" screen image as well as his own eccentric real-life persona. In no other film has he made me laugh so hard. Diaz, for her part, evolves slowly from damsel-in-distress to a strong and courageous action heroine, and she is a surprisingly good comic and romantic foil for Cruise. Their chemistry, terrific action sequences, and very funny dialogue carry the film over its rather formulaic plot, some slow patches, and wide gaps in the narrative. Knight and Day is a great date movie for those looking for a balance of laughs, thrills, and romance. Audiences should know that there is brief strong language, a couple of innuendos (and the stars briefly appear in swimwear), and a good deal of violence, though the tone of the latter is so over-the-top that it is clearly dark humor and parody of the ridiculousness of "invincible action-hero" movies. Still, those troubled by any of the above should look elsewhere.

Knight and Day is one of my all-time favourite comedy-action movies ever! It delivers everything it sets out to do, it's funny, romantic, the action hits hard and is incredibly fluid, and the dialogue is very smart.Every big action set-piece is imaginative and different from the one before, and a good blend between real stunts and CGI. (But no worry, Tom Cruise does all of his stunts for real as always, including the driving, but also Cameron Diaz never needed any stunt-drivers for her scenes)The acting is very good, especially Tom Cruise who does everything he's good in, he's charming in one moment and unpredictable and hard in the next, he delivers the action and the comedy, and you never wanna look away, and Cameron Diaz is fairly believable and very charming in her role which makes it even more fun.The soundtrack from John Powell is very energetic and some of my favourite music-moments are in this film because of him...Knight and Day is incredible fun that shouldn't be missed out...
