Crazed, manic, relentless romantic action comedy are just a few of the adjectives I’m going to use to describe this oddball film.From the opening credits, mayhem and ridiculousness ensue, thanks to a rogue CIA agent slash psycho played by none other than Tom Cruise. That Cruise’s deranged character, Roy Miller, is a parody of his perceived public persona is obvious and makes the role more amusing than it would be played by someone else. Along for the ride is the unwilling June Havens (Cameron Diaz), who Miller drugs and endangers constantly and still manages to woo.
Like I said, it’s one ridiculous stretch after another, but somehow works. The non-stop CGI and over-the-top stunts means that it’s more action than romantic comedy, but it’s still cutesy enough for the girls to enjoy. This is your best bet for the weekend.
Rating: 4 outta 5.
