PLOT: A dramatic thriller about an American tourist (Depp) visiting Italy to mend a broken heart, and the extraordinary woman (Jolie) being pursued by gun-toting men, who deliberately crosses his path.
CAST: Johnny Depp, Angelina Jolie, Paul Bettany, Rufus Sewell (A Knight's Tale)
VERDICT: It's basically Knight and Day, if Depp was in the Cameron Diaz role and Jolie was in the Tom Cruise role, and if the mysterious person had no intention of immediately explaining why the civilian is being hunted down like a dog. I really liked Knight & Day, but I think this will be cooler because there's a lot more mystery to it. The only part I'm worried about is having to watch Depp behave like a goofy everyman. There's nothing everymanish about Johnny Depp. I'd buy Ryan Reynolds or some bumbling idiot like one of the Wilson brothers playing this part, but Johnny Depp is too awesome to play second fiddle to Jolie...no matter how badass she is.
RELEASE DATE: December 10
