The Movie Knight & Day Reviewed

By Francesca Blankenship

Two people meet and they couldn't be more different. One is getting ready to follow her normal routine in her typical day. The other is on the run, as is typical for his life. Not matter what the combination, Knight & Day brings together two popular characters that compliment each other. They find a way to make it work and being so different appears to have it's benefits. There is a bit of a reluctant feeling in the beginning, but time, people and situations change that.

Being on the run is not an easy thing for the characters in the movie. No one wants to get caught, yet around every corner lurks someone who's waiting for them. They try to escape as they are being chased for possession of the item they have that the bad guys shown appear to want.

A love story begins during the movie that is comical and heartfelt. The one liners and references to moments they share reflect a relationship that grows over time. As they learn more about each other, they become closer and closer. It's a complicated issue filled with chase scenes, moments of truth and occasional unconsciousness.

As the drama unfolds, so do the stories behind the characters. You see the simplistic life that meets a complex one and learn that there's always more to the story that someone doesn't tell you. When they find out for themselves just who each person is, they get to know each other in a way that is more personal. It's moments of understanding that make them more intimate friends.

You might want to see this movie for the laughs you hope to get or for the action that appears to leave you on the edge of your seat. Maybe the popular characters are the main attraction. Whatever your reason, enjoy the experience, because this movie will make you feel heartfelt emotion and laugh at the same time. It's easy to find yourself relating to certain situations as well.

As new times and places appear throughout the movie, you see the creativity that was put into each scene. From a chase scene on the slim streets of a busy city to a desolate island where no man has tarnished it with urban life. Many places are a simplistic place of peace and quiet that can only be found by traveling near and far. The colors that enhance the characters also bring out the imagination behind the creativity.

The bad guys in this movie are so devious and casual that it makes you forget they are the bad guys. Knowing how to run away from a bullet to shoot at a moving target, you find yourself almost rooting for them to be successful.

When you watch Knight & Day, you will see for yourself just what happens when two peoples lives interfere. From one normal day to the next where you're being chased by bad guys with some guy you barely know, you'll love this movie just for the simplistic comedy and drama. - 40723
