Knight and Day (2010)

If the USA had a James Bond, I would like to think the Roy Miller character here would come pretty close to fitting the bill. I enjoyed this movie more than I expected to. Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz had wonderful chemistry. The action is almost non-stop and the dialogue is smart and snappy. They do not over the funny bits and good guys are not always perfect. Cruise and Diaz do most their own stunts too.

Peter Sarsgaard is almost understated as the FBI agent chasing the two of them. No spoilers here, but there are times when it's okay to wonder who the good guys and bad guys really are. It all clears up in the end.

The PG-13 rating is okay which helped it receive a Teen Choice award nomination. The would actually be a fun family movie to watch. Something for everyone.

Watch this with someone who knows something about restoring or American cars.
