Brad Bird is best known for genre stretching animated films – Iron Giant, The Incredibles, Ratatouille – so it makes perfect sense that he would bring the same panache and wit to his live-action debut. Mission: Impossible: Ghost Protocol is the best film in the series because it cuts all the unnecessary chitchat and focuses on the action, the cool toys and a truly whimsical sense of humor.

James Mangold, he of the superb 3:10 to Yuma, tires his hand at a spy-based action/romantic comedy in Knight and Day. He gets kinetic performances from stars Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz [as possibly psychotic spy Roy Miller and bridesmaid-to-be June Havens] but other than a few fun twists, produces a film that strikes me as having no real script.

If, like me, you were puzzled by the amount of attention given to Tom Cruise’s Les Grossman during the MTV Movie Awards last weekend, then today’s press release from Paramount, announcing a film about the character [though treating him very much like an actual Hollywood heavyweight] should clear that up. The frequently hilarious press release follows the jump.
