| Knight and Day | comment |
Knight and Day is a 2010 action/comedy film directed by James Mangold and starring Tom Cruise as secret agent Roy Miller, who might be trying to clear his name or who might be trying to cover up a horrific multiple-murder and theft of a potent free energy MacGuffin, and Cameron Diaz as June Havens, a Wrench Wench Action Girl sidekick embroiled in spy games that go way over her head. Not to be confused with Night and Day. | |

Toros y Flamenco | |
| Knight and Day / int_1a51c6ca | comment |
Toros y Flamenco: The producers had the decency to shoot in the real Spain, but some undiscernible reason drove them to set a San Fermín festival in Seville (it takes place in Pamplona) and to shoot their version of Seville in Cádiz. It can be noted in the film itself, where a banda can be heard playing a feria song that goes "A Pamplona hemos de ir".note To Pamplona we must go | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Knight and Day / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In a rare twist given how tongue-in-cheek the film and its tone are, most of June's reactions in the first half of the movie are completely realistic to how a normal person would react to the utterly violent, crazy shenanigans that happen around Roy. Especially her being terrified enough for panic fire and screaming her head off when Roy surprises her during one of the firefights. | |

False Reassurance: Roy tells June (after surviving the first fight scene and the plane crashing) that government agents will come to question her and that she better be careful because if they keep saying that they "keep her safe" they are definitely meaning that they will assassinate her. You can guess what the agents that abduct her three scenes later keep telling her. | |

Always Save the Girl: Subverted: June deliberately gets herself kidnapped so that she can get back together with Roy, assuming that he'll save her. He does, but he has no idea that she's there at the time, as he's around for a completely different reason. He does take a moment in the middle of a firefight to step out from cover and kiss her when she guilt talks him into it, though. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Knight and Day / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Some of Simon's writing early in the movie reads "CuO3 = boom!!". Guess what happens to the battery. When Roy and June are hiding out at his place in the Azores, Roy is coming back from a successful underwater spearfishing trip when June wakes up. This is an early indication that Roy is good at holding his breath, and is likely to have survived his encounter with the CIA in Austria, even before June goes to meet his folks. | |

Nice Guy | |
| Knight and Day / int_c5249b29 | comment |
Nice Guy: Roy, when he isn't brutally fighting his assailants that is. This becomes a little clearer later on when he seems to have stopped using excessive force in tough situations. He also doesn't curse or swear at all throughout the entire movie. In one of the heartwarming moments of the film, Roy has left June a note saying he was happy to have met her, and a second, reminding her to 'Eat a good breakfast, June'. He'd left her an omelette. | |

Offscreen Moment of Awesome: A Running Gag involving Roy's One-Man Army antics when June is drugged, because we're following her point of view. | |

Exact Words: When June tells Roy not to drug her again, a few minutes later, he pinches her neck. She notes that he is, and before she blacks out, he says "You told me not to drug you again." | |

Artistic License – Geography | |
| Knight and Day / int_e9f517e1 | comment |
Artistic License – Geography: The movie ends with June apparently having driven Roy from the US to somewhere in South America, with them continuing on to Cape Horn. It is infamously impossible to drive from North America to South America, due to the Darién Gap. | |

Artistic License – Physics | |
| Knight and Day / int_fc225bec | comment |
Artistic License – Physics: Subverted, but not at first. The Zephyr is presented as a true perpetual motion machine: it will never run out of energy, ever. However, over the course of the film, the battery slowly builds up heat and eventually explodes, taking out the villain in his moment of triumph. Spanish bulls from the Sanfermines would not send a car rolling like crazy as the film shows. Despite the admittedly humongous power and momentum a charging bull can generate, a car is too heavy of an obstacle and has a too low center of gravity, even if hit by an entire encierro (that is, around five bulls released at the same time). The bulls could believably flip the car over and/or push it into sliding a long distance, but not make it roll multiple times with the momentum of a single tackle as portrayed in the film. | |
