Here’s the trailer for Knight and Day, an action movie starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz. I first saw this right before seeing Avatar, and I hadn’t really heard or seen much about it before. I actually thought the trailer looked interesting and could be a lot of fun.

This looks . . . . dumb.
Of course, I'm also the guy who didn't like Shoot'em Up because I felt like the over the top was diminished by the unparalleled stupidity.
This appears to be Cruise's attempt at something similar.
I actually really liked Shoot'em Up, and enjoyed the over the top nature. I also met the writer/director and he was a nice guy. He's probably having a hard time finding a 2nd gig though since it didn't do that well financially.

Even from just watching the trailer it looks to me like this film had Cruise on "phone it in" mode.
