Tom Cruise & the magical swirler are KNIGHT & DAY in this trailer!
Hey folks, Harry here with the non-sucky trailer of the day. This time we have an action comedy from 3:10 TO YUMA badass, James Mangold - who has put together Tom Cruise & Cameron Diaz in the midst of some sort of wonderfully preposterous action adventure - with Cameron Diaz channelling Lucy & Jamie Lee Curtis! The cast for this is pretty incredible, but not really featured in the trailer. The cast includes Viola Davis, Oliver Martinez, Paul Dano, Maggie Grace and Peter Sarsgaard. If you're one of the half dozen or so people that saw AVATAR, you saw this trailer in theaters, most likely, or perhaps you saw that crap small version on E! two days ago, but frankly that just wasn't worth pointing y'all in the direction for. Now we have it in HD QUICKTIME glory.
Sure, it evokes MR & MRS SMITH and TRUE LIES - but with strangers meeting. I like that Cruise looks older in the film. The wrinkles look good on him. Makes him not look so damn boyish. Here's the link:
Stop thinking Cole Porter, that was NIGHT & DAY, this is KNIGHT & DAY!

Do Cruise and Diaz know what it's about?
-
I know considering the past few years he has no choice but to, but he's pretty likable in this so far.

But it looks like a fun little movie evocative of the 90s.
"I'll kill myself and then her." -
Tom Cruise = meh
-
I like him being a movie star again.
-
Looks entertaining, and Mangold is not known for exploiting 11 year olds, so color me there.
-
We need more movies like this. I can see sequels. Suri is gonna grow up to be hot.

remember that...Out of Sight? Minority Report? Get Shorty?don't worry about Marley & Me, the guy's gotta...well...you know.
-
around some guys cock. You know its true.

Personally, I've always felt that Cruise had too much shit put on him because of his ties to Scientology or that even too much was made of the infamous Oprah couch jumping incident. I mean, seriously, for fuck's sake let the guy be happy and exuberant. He had just fallen in love with the woman that he actually DID go on to marry. So, as I said, I thought in recent times he was getting a bit of a bum rap as opposed to other stars or "celebrities of the moment" who -- let's face it -- are FAR more insane whack jobs strung out on drugs or possessing other problems that are off the chart. I always thought of Cruise as one of the most personable stars, and in times past he had a great knack for picking projects. So I agree with Noodleshahn's summary above: it's nice to see Cruise back to simply being a likeable screen star again, and ideally this will be a fun summer popcorn flick that will remind you how good he can be when he really does throttle up the charm.In fact, along the same lines, this is the first trailer in ages where Diaz has looked good as well. Not to sound too much like a sexist pig, but of late her age and looks and budding wrinkles and what not were not being well served in trailers (or actual films) either. So this is the first thing in a while that makes me think "Hey, it's good to see Cameron back in form TOO."

LOOKS LIKE FUCKING SHIT TO ME!!! GET SODERBERGH FOR M:I-4!!!
by tehcreepythinman
Ocean's 11 and 13 were practically Mission : Impossible movies anyway and they were quite entertaining. The less said about 12 the better. Couldn't be any worse then the Woo or Abrams snorefests. DePalma's movie is STILL the best of the series.
-
He tries way too hard. He's given good performances in the past, and has undeniable charisma, but he tries too hard whenever he's on a talk show or in a movie. He's just fucking amped up on something.

Mix, stir and you have M:I-4. Wow, I'd love to be a studio executive and methinks I'd be pretty good at it.

BringingSexyBack, IT'S SOO FUCKING OBVIOUS ISN'T IT.....
by tehcreepythinman
I don't think they're better then DePalma's film, which is in a class by itself, but I also don't think you'd go wrong with Soderbergh at the helm of one of these. Besides, he knows how to play the Hollywood power game and if he wants to keep making movies like Che and The Girlfriend Experience, he needs another hit and the next M:I film would be a perfect fit.
-
...work their thing in a Sky Captain spinoff focused on Jolie's character.
-
He's got a weird last name.
-
They give so much away in the trailer, there's no need to see this.
-
I agree with the poster above who said to cut the guy some slack. He had his diva moments, he, like many celebrities, overestimated the role he should play in people's personal lives, and wanted to think for us, and give us medical advice....and many don't forgive him for turning perky Katie Holmes into a Stepford Wife...
But none of that stuff overshadows why his is "Tom Cruise". The guy is a great actor, he seems to have learned to STFU in the media recently, so maybe we can go back to remembering why he became such a star in the first place: he is entertaining to watch in movie-plays. -
Love Cruise. Give less than a shit about his personal live. The guy is that rare movie star who's also a sensational character actor. Look at him in Rain Man and in Collateral. Two completely different people. That's acting. When working with real material, he can be magical. And here he's clearly having a blast. I loved the "I'll kill myself and then her!" line. Hilarious. Good to see him enjoying himself again.
-
Though this summer looked like shit from at the start as well. Hopefully the Oscar bait stuff next year wont be all crap like it is this year.

hilarious. If he took himself seriously, he never would have done that.
-
not when it comes to his church. which is crumbling.
-
That motorcycle bit cracks me up.
-
sans Mel Gibson and Goldie Hawn. I'll wait for the Blu-Ray.
-
Thank God too, it looks shitty.
-
but...this trailer looks like pure shit to me. To "Bird on a wire-ish". Manolo...shoot this piece of chit!
-
Looks like a fun movie, 90's style action movie, something that has been lacking lately.
-
I think it's getting a lot of hate because it's Tom Cruise, but eh it looks decent. Inception is really the only SUMMER film that I really care about though, the rest seem disposable.
-
She should go back to wearing fishnets, black leather and blowing compressed air on her nipples to get them hard. The fact is that this chick got lucky with The Mask in 1994 and we've had to endure her lackluster "acting" "abilities" for over 15 years now. Same thing with that useless cunt Sandra Bullock who also got her break in 94 with Speed. Fuck'em both and I would have liked to.......ten years ago.
-
otherwise I think she's...eh.
-
Remember that crapfest?

CRUISE AND DIAZ SHOULD HAVE MADE A ROMANTIC COMEDY CALLED.....
by tehcreepythinman
The Ted Bundy Story. She's a screwball dame and he's a raging psychopath with an urge to KILL!!! Can their love last or will he choke her to death and fuck her rotting carcase? It would be the first romantic comedy with corpse fucking, oh, sorry, I forgot about that new Meryl Streep comedy where's she's boned by Alec Baldwin.
-
was the original title of the script this movie is based on. Looks good, and Cruise, as always, has oodles of charisma.
-
Cruise has to face the reality that he is now damaged goods, box office poison. He should start the independent film route pronto.
-
Seen it all before kinda stuff.
I'd love to see Cruise in a prequel to Collateral, which was easily his best acting role to date, and aint gonna change with this stinking pile! -
typical blockbuster comedy bullshit

CRUISE SHOULD DO A TROPIC THUNDER SPINOFF MOVIE.......
by tehcreepythinman
That was the best fucking thing he's done in YEARS and I'd kill to see a movie revolving around that character.

Tom Charisma.

when cruise has fun in a movie I think I'll check this out.

Call me silly but I like it when Cruise has fun in a Movie.

Harry, do you ever proof-read...? And Arnold Stang...
by thegreatwhatzit
"The cast for this is pretty incredible, but not really featured in the trailer. The cast..." Wow, a sure candidate for "The Mayberry Gazette".
No love for Arnold Stang? The actor just died--why no acknowledgement? Stang played the consummate nerd, oscillating from THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN ARM to Grade-Z filler (i.e. HERCULES IN NEW YORK, what with Stang's homoerotic attraction to de utter
Auh-nold (a sighing Stang's flashbacks always cut to scenes of a shirtless Hercules). The man deserves some sort of homage. -

looks ok ... I am waiting final judgment.

Magical swirler? Tom Cruise? Try "magical swishler". Tom, support the Gay Community by unfastening the closet door. This camouflage "marriage" to Ms. Holmes is the worst kept secret since Rock Hudson.
-
Seriously.

will smith is in this movie?
-
By Xenu's gray lazer beard- Tom Cruise in a "funny movie". Unfortunately his ties to the Cult of $cientology are far more than him being wierd or strange. Support Tom and you support this sort of nonsense- check out this interview with Jason Beghbe on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNUjMz9-W2I When people come on these sites and say that Tom's personal life doesnt matter, I wonder if they are operatives of $cientology. Regardless, Tom doesnt get a free pass. Enjoy your early Christmas gift of a Xenu talkback AICN folks!!

And Cameron Diaz sux too.

by deckardbladerunner
http://www.sherdog.net/forums/f78/i-am-ex-scientologist-long-read-1107218/ Will Tom Cruise make a movie and play Willhaven720 from this fascinating online discussion?
-
Where he played Jack Handle on a show, "Handle with Care". Oy.
Still, it looks good. -
I saw the small crap version and already thought it was good. This is much better, thank you. I don't like the title either, but ah well. Tom looks awesome. I like seeing him a little less serious and yet, he's still going to be the foil against Cameron's "Lucy" routine. I hope the movie lives up to its teaser/trailer. This is good summer fun I think. Go Tom!
-
A movie staring Tom Cruise I ACTUALLY want to fucking see... I think it's time to play the godamn lottery 'cause I think Hell just froze the fuck over!
-
I can't wait. Cruise doing comedy is so much better than I would have ever thought. First Tropic Thunder, now this. Never thought I'd be pumped for a Diaz movie ever again in my life...but here we are. "No one follows us, or I kill her, then myself." Tom Cruise saying that sentence could be my favorite thing ever. I can't wait for this. Looks hilariously awesome.
-
I thought it was supposed to make a run at the record books, and it was going to be the greatest film of all time. So why does almost every review rip the plot and script? I'm fighting with my wife, trying to convince her to see Avatar, and I'm thinking of giving up that fight.
-
Tell her that YES, it's a step by step regurgitation of FAR better movies, with terrible dialogue, a ridiculously infantile path of logic, asinine responses and unsupportable conclusions...
But GAWD DAYUM is it gorgeous to watch -
Oh.. did anyone notice in like a dozen different scenes, the dialogue you hear is no where NEAR what is being said on screen?
-
In The Mask. So hot in that movie.
-
Who is creepier, Tom Cruise or Cameron Diaz? The vapid mind-controlled scientologist or the spoiled idiot bitch? Let's watch this one crash and burn, shall we? WTF is Hollywood thinking???
-
It's been 10 years since I've been guilt free and stopped caring about the jokes etc that come with enjoying an actor who does what great actors do consistently: picks good roles.
-
Do not subject your wife to Avatar.
-
That looks awesome.
Cruise doing comedy has been alright with me, Tropic Thunder and now this. The best is that he didn't airbrush his face. He's got a lil' Paul Newman ruggedness going on with the wrinkles. The motorcycle jump was classic and threatening to kill himself then his hostage, I couldn't stop laughing. Cameron looks to have brought her "A" game as well, should be fun. -
As one my self. I'm indeed glad he's starting to lighten up again with a comedy /action film. I guess his classic role in Tropic Thunder sparked a new direction.
Again, since Mel Gibson went nuts, Cruise is now the last 'True' remaining movie star out there. And no, I don't think Will Smith is there yet. I will be seeing this movie. -
I, too, am an unabashed Tom Cruise fan. While I don't believe he is a "great" actor in that he disappears into roles or anything like that, I enjoy almost every single movie the guy has ever made. His script-picking track record is better than just about anyone in Hollywood. Other than MI2 (which was Woo's fault entirely), I can't think of a single Cruise movie I hate. Collateral and Magnolia are his best, imo, but I always enjoy whatever he is up to next. So glad to finally hear someone else admit their appreciation for his ability to make entertaining movies consistently. I don't give a shit about his crazy personal life, its not my business. His movies are my business, and I always get my 8 bucks worth.
-
it disturbs me that, Cameron Diaz's swirly ass in Charlies Angels made such an impression on Harry, that he still references it now a decade later.
-
And Cameron Diaz was the hottest she's been since The Mask in this year's The Box. Very nice to look at. I'm really looking forward to 2010 at the movies.
-
Harry, the "magical swirling ass" whenever you talk about Diaz is really weird. Diaz is hot in still photos with makeup on, but as soon as she opens her mouth, even when she's acting, all I hear is "I AM A VAPID CUNT WITH A MASSIVE SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT AND THE INTELLIGENCE OF TIGERKING7979."
-
First film with Cruise that I've been really interested to see since WAR OF THE WORLDS. And the audience reaction has been pretty good, so far. The traier needs a little bit of a reedit to make it better, but otherwise sells the goods, especially Cruise, pretty well. He really needs to start doing comedies. I think he could do very good in them.
-
I was randomly surfing TMZ just recently and they had footage of Cruise going down the highway on the hood of the SUV. Pretty impressive because he started on the roof and jumped down, no stuntman.
-
...BEFORE I SEE THIS MOVIE. COME ON TOM, YOU CAN DO BETTER.
-
It seemed odd to me that Cameron's character mentioned the Grand Theft Auto game when I saw a trailer for this movie in a theater. I don't know the character's gaming lifestyle, but I wouldn't have guessed the character were familiar with it. Or maybe she wasn't referring to the game? I forget.
-
i am fed up of these briget jones type movies that are fucking boring. Just so everyone is clear if camron diaz had swine flu she'd still be hot.
-
who needs a story?
-
just sayin. Cameron is the kind of girl that looks good on red carpets, on screen, and 5 minutes after the after party when ya got her on all fours and you're shoveling the coals up her boiler, but probably not so much at 10am once the $4000 hair and makeup have worn off and she is on the throne dumpin out last nights protein shake. But that wouldn't matter...cuz smart guys are loooong gone before they really wake up anyway...never eat breakfast with girls like Cameron..it ruins the illusion....better to skip out before dawn and hit the IHOP.Thats right...I've got no opinion on this..and nothing to say...just wanted to throw in my .02 about Diaz and her bangable ass
-
I don't care for Cruise or Diaz, but this looks like a fun send-up of shitty Hollywood shoot-'em-ups...
-
...and Fuck You!
-
She was once sooo hot. Yet she got into this carb free mania. It affected her looks but pleased her hollywood friends.
-
Oprah's couch anyone?
-
You just kill me every time dude!
-
because seriously
-
where you see the bike crash, then the helmet, then Tom Cruise drops onto the hood. That was neat.

Harry comments on how good he thinks Cruise looks but not Diaz..
by glory_fades_immaxfischer
-
But I feel...really, that it needs to be said. When you allow movies like this..movies where the title is some shitty pun...exist, you're putting us all in a bad position.This title and premise sounds like one of those throwaway title/premise combos from an episode of Seinfeld where they try to go to the movies. Like 'Sack Lunch' or 'Cry Cry Again' or 'Deathblow'.This title sucks, the action scenes look somewhat interesting. But this movie looks like a pass for me. I can't watch a flick with Tom Cruise basically being Tom Cruise in it anymore.
-
Yikes.
-
Most critics were slamming Avatar before they saw it. They think it's a cartoon, but they're the same people that think the Frog and the Prince is a good movie.
-
I think it's way past time we let Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz go, don't you?
-
It looks like he finally hit that point where he is starting to look old. It comes suddenly in the world of film.
-
HAHA!!
-
and Cruise takes me out of it unless he is made up like in Tropic Thunder.
-
Let's be honest, these quirky screwball 'crazy-partnership' films rarely ever rise above mediocre, and Cruise and Diaz are both strictly B-list these days.Still, at least Sandra Bullock's not in it.
-
Tom starting to age like the rest of us! Good to see! Movie looks like MOTSOS but I'll see it anyway!
-
for fucks sake! does Diaz have to be in EVERYTHING?! If I were a female actress in hollywood i'd be well pissed...
-
Every time I see her I think she's the offspring of Meryl Streep and one of those muties from The Hills Have Eyes. Total fucking herpeghonasyphillaids carrier. Ewwww.
-
Bit predictable, but the 'I'll kill me then her' line was awesome. One of those lines which slips past you then you realise what he said.
And the dance in Tropic Thunder goes on for way too long. The first 20 secs is okay, but then it just goes on and on, like someone told him it was really funny and he believed them. The foul mouthed negotiating was funnier to me, even though that went on too long for me as well. What is it about comedy movies stretching out jokes like that? Guess they can't find more jokes to fill the time with... -
Of course, as we all know so well, the wannabees hating on it are all live-at-home virgins who've been working on that one script that'll blow James Cameron the fuck out of the water, just you wait... dream on, you talentless cunts!
Avatar is a fantastic rendering of a classic archetypal story with Biblical/mythological shadings. Extremely well done and endlessly inventive. For example, you ever see a man survive a crashing airship by strapping into a powerloader and leaping out of the exploding craft the moment it hits the ground? Avatar shows you exactly what that looks like. Go see it. Drag the wife by the hair if you have to. :o)
-
i won't say "i can't wait!!!" because is a cliche.
-
Seriously.
-
Awesomesome.
-
with him and Ben Stiller? After Cruise showed a sense of humor in Tropic Thunder, this idea, corny as it is, seems like it could be a lot of fun.
-
Ok, I could see this movie being kinda funny... or it could really suck.
-
that guy is fucking completely unfunny. He belongs in the shit-pile of one-note 'comedians' alongside Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson.
-
diaz and cruise are both pros, but man, they are struggling with this material. it's the same snappy dialog from all these moives, and sure, its ok, but they arn't making the material work to its full potential
-
Not the biggest Diaz fan but she seems decent in it as well.
-
That's all.
-
funny. Really? I saw a film called tropic thunder and it was nothing more than a vanity project. the fake trailers were the only funny part of the movie.
-
after the Box.
-
= only good scene in that movie. I could watch that shit on an endless loop.
-
"Crazy Fuckers" It would be fun. This has my attention over Diaz and Cruise pairing though. I liked them in Vanilla Sky.
-
The trailer was "meh."
-
after Tom cruise's character starts snorting crack out of cameron diaz' butt crack and sees himself as some sort of super secret agent
-
Why can't Cameron Diaz die of an overdose or something? Worst and most overpaid actress in Hollywood.
