Knightmare?

Knight and Day (2010)

Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz star in this action comedy that went through enough writers to field a football team. At the airport a secret agent on the run bumps into a blonde travelling with a bunch of car parts and they end up on the run from his agency.

What brings this film down is that it is terribly bland, it seems going through so many different writers hands has washed all personality out of the script. There are some glimmers of personality at the start with Cruise's character at the start of the film but they are quickly forgotten and we end up with a generic action film. As is the case with many films these days the action sequences are more CGI than anything else and as such do little to impress or cover up for the weak nature of the rest of the film. At least the film manages not to be offensively stupid which is about the best you can say about it.

3/5 nothing of note here.
