Tom Cruise in Toronto in December 2008

The day begins with Roy Miller (Tom Cruise) coincidentally meets up with June Havens (Cameron Diaz) and life as she knows it will never be the same again. Little does June realize is that Roy is actually a spy working for, well, we don't know what government he's with or whether or not he's even a good person.

From the moments after the plane crashes, they're, Roy and June, constantly on the move, pursued by foreign and domestic elements seeking on capturing him and the item he now possesses, the Zephyr, a power source with a high output but the size of an alkaline AA battery. He must retrieve the creator of the device from the same people that's after them. All the while, June's having trouble trying to determine what side Roy actually works for.

The story is actually quite good and it keeps you guessing trying to figure out who is on who's side and the connection between Diaz and Cruise is perfect. Cruise brings humor at the moments during intense scenes with Diaz behind the wheel (Diaz is an accomplished high-speed car driver). One of the better movies to come out in 2010 and worth seeing.
