**Knight and Day is a forgettable but still entertaining Tom Cruise spy action comedy.** Knight and Day has all the elements of a Tom Cruise action movie: motorcycle chases, quippy one-liners, frequent explosions, and lots of running. It’s a fun formula that I have watched many times. Knight and Day provides all that, along with exceptional director James Mangold and incredible talent with Cameron Diaz, Viola Davis, and Paul Dano, but sadly underwhelms a little. Don’t get me wrong. It’s not a bad movie, but the CGI and green screen throughout the film were distractingly obvious, and much of the dialogue and plot twists oozed with cheese and cliche. But you can’t keep that Tim Cruise charisma from taking a mediocre film and charming it up a little more with all kinds of stunts, jumping, running, and smirks.
