Charming, funny, kicking ass when he needs to. I haven't been wild about Cruise's output of late so this is my favorite movie of his this century (I'm sure fans of Collateral and Ghost Protocol will disagree; I don't count Tropic Thunder since it was a small role.)

This should be (yet another) star turn for Emily Blunt but knowing Hollywood she'll still struggle to find could mainstream material.

Definitely recommend this one. It's not groundbreaking but it's a very entertaining summer blockbuster and I won't be surprised if it is my favorite action movie of the year (although Dawn of Planet of the Apes looks pretty awesome.) Like any sci-fi film like this, there are a few "Wait, why didn't they..." but this is so entertaining that they didn't irk me at all.
