With James Mangold at the helm and charismatic stars Tom Cruise and Camera Diaz leading the way, this action/comedy/romance hybrid manages to hit all the right notes and prevail as one of the most entertaining films I’ve seen in quite a while.
Yes.
This uniquely constructed romantic comedy is a cut above the rest, mixing some great moments of poignancy and truly gripping cinema with the typical wisecracks and sidekicks you’ve come to expect from the genre.
