The Change From Knight & Day

By Darrell Dorsey

Imagine two people with completely separate agendas in their life crossing paths because they need one another. This only happens in movies like Knight & Day where two random people happen to meet at a moment in time where fate has intertwined them. He turns out to be her knight as the title indicates, yet the characters also happen to be so different that the implied comparison between night and day is also apparent.

A chase scene can capture audiences attention when the action is on the edge of dangerous situations where you can't see a way out. Most of this movie involves a different chase of some kind that keeps you guessing and wondering what the ending will bring. It may not be your obvious chase scene, but there is always someone looking for something in order to figure out a piece of the puzzle.

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 story develops, you learn more about her life and his as well. He isn't as forthcoming with information as she is, so she's forced to follow clues to find out his past. The more time they spend together, the more she shares with him about her life. Each moment may be brief, but it's enough to keep you on your toes and wanting more from one scene and situation to the next.

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.

The surroundings throughout this movie show the importance of showing change at every turn. Finding yourself in a warehouse and then waking up on a deserted island is not typical for many people. In order to achieve this, many creative people helped imagine the best scene and designed it to become reality. Being on the run and requiring resources means a lot of creativity is necessary. Putting together a puzzle where the pieces need to fit in the end appears to be the ultimate challenge.

Typically, the bad guys are never very smart and that continues to show how the good guys are always one step ahead. Needing to be one step ahead in order to survive is the name of the game. From shooting guns, dodging bullets and crashing cars to lengthy conversations that ensue show the depth of each situation.

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. - 39815
