Excellent story line with tremendous stunts by Tom Cruise himself. This movie is worth every penny that you spend.
I have to say I have not been a great fan of the Mission Impossible movies. Sure, there’s plenty of action and cool stunts but I do not feel they follow the spirit of the TV-show. In the TV-show they got their mission and then they completed it, tricking the bad guys, with the full backing of the IMF team. No political bullshit, betrayal of the team and such like nonsense. However, in pretty much every movie Ethan or the entire IMF team was betrayed or set up and he had to, not only complete his mission but, clear IMF from whatever shenanigans the story writers had dreamed up. The movies have been Mission Impossible in name only. I wonder if the moron script writers has ever watched the show. In this movie too there is indeed a bunch of political nonsense and betrayal. Shit that I could be without. But at least IMF and Ethan’s team are on his side throughout the movie. There are also a few clever parts where they trick the bad guys in a good old fashioned Mission Impossible style. Otherwise the movie is mostly a classical Hollywood action adventure/thriller movie. Plenty of, more or less, non stop action. There are a few of the usual WTF story holes and defiance of physics when it comes to the stunts of course. The dumbass CIA director was a completely unnecessary element though. Still, overall I found this installment in the franchise to be one of the better ones. Maybe even the best one yet.
Movie was good but its not better than ghost protocol.
They just keep getting better, but they never get good. _Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._
Now this is a much better outing for our IMF pals - much sharper pace and direction than the meandering "Ghost Protocol". This one sees "Ethan" (Tom Cruise) with "Luther" (Ving Rhames) and the still frequently irritating Simon Pegg ("Benji") having to track down some plutonium balls after an earlier mission went a bit awry, and before lunatic ecologist Sean Harris ("Solomon Lane") commits an atrocity to end all atrocities in the name of creating a new world order! The first twenty minutes are poor; predictable and formulaic and I will admit to having started to write it off, Once Henry Cavill ("August Walker") joins the gang, however, and they start to search for the missing cores it becomes fast-moving, action-packed and enjoyable - with plenty of crosses and double-crosses. Rebecca Ferguson still always comes across the same, whomever she plays, but that works for this one and the team spirit really comes across. Sure, it isn't going to win a Booker for the writing, but it travels the world showing off some fine locations (many of which are actually left intact, afterwards!!) before heading to an exciting denouement with helicopters and Cruise's favourite mountain-top pinnacle combat. All good stuff.
The sixth installment of Mission impossible was a great effort from start to finish. Bringing back certain characters, even in small roles help up the ante and lead to less time in exposition and more time advancing the stakes, the plot and ultimately the resolution. The action pieces are always well done and though it seems impossible for the stakes to get higher they always seem to do in this case they even get more personal. The twist and turns in this movie were unexpected. The first watch through and even on subsequent viewings it was tough to remember them all, and left me somewhat surprised and amused throughout.
