After the success of his “Mission: Impossible” action thrillers, it seems as if Tom Cruise is finally taking a turn at self-parody. His new film, “Knight and Day,” has him indulging in slapstick shootouts and absurd one-liners, with the likes of, “No one follows us, or I kill myself and then her.” Cameron Diaz comes through with the sex appeal, playing the distressed, unsuspecting civilian to Cruise’s wisecracking secret agent. The formula may be overused, but the star power of Diaz and Cruise all but ensure a financial windfall for this June release — though critical acclaim for this lightweight film is anything but a guarantee.
