This was an awesome movie and I was highly entertained. The film was 2 hours long but I did not even notice because I was so into the film. I thought that this last film was the best one yet and Tom Cruise is one talented fellow. I can not believe he did all of his stunts himself, that is just insane and amazing, I was scared for him couple of times especially when he was dangling from that skyscraper in Dubai. I think that the cast was great and I loved that there were couple of funny moments in the film, i could see that everyone had a great time making this film. Overall, I highly recommend seeing this film in the theaters. -
Much was said on this particular movie but to my best of knowledge, this movie seems to be so boring, i have watch several movies by him and i think "Cruise" fail to produce a quality although much noise was been made about....more grease to his palm//...... -
This story gives me much more info and pleasure than writings concerning success, lose weight fast, and the like -
Not a Tom Cruise fan but this movie is a fun bit of escapism! -
If you liked the previous MI flicks, this one is about the same as far as action. It's action packed and you get to see a lot of interesting places like Dubai. Cruise and actors are good, they pull it off. Not really exceptional, but worth a look -
Fantastic movie. Thrilling ride for most of the movie. They could have spent a little more time on devolping the supporting characters. Must see in the theatre, larger than life action. Made my feet tingle during the outside the tall building sequence! 12/30/11 gary -
It is a real surprise that the 4th film is this good, I really did not expect to like this movie but the director did a great job and Tom Cruise impressed me once again. The film is very energetic and fun to watch, it looks like the cast had a lot of fun filming this movie and it shows. The action in the film is awesome and some of the stunts were truly impressive if not mind blowing. The film is still ridiculous in the sense that none of the things that the characters do are humanly possible but if you want to be entertained this is definitely the film that will do the job. I think that Brad Bird is the perfect director for this kind of movie and him and Tom Cruise make a perfect team. -
I can not believe i am writing a very positive review for this film, this is the last thing I have expected but it is true, I absolutely loved it and highly recommend seeing this film in the theaters. The film was action filled and it looked absolutely amazing, i loved the performances and it was even funny sometimes. The film is mind blowing visually and the stunts are amazing, I have to say that it is pretty amazing that Tom Cruise does his own stunts, I was very impressed. The plot is simple and satisfying and the pace of the film is super fast, you will be engaged the whole time. The scene where Tom Cruise is climbing the tallest building in the world is the most amazing scenes I have seen so far. Overall, if you want an entertaining and fun film this one is the winner. -
Kinda hard to folla, fella! I kind of lost track of what was happening several times in this action packed film. A pretty typical non stop action, chase, crash, bodies being thrown off cars, flick. I kept wondering how many times Mr. Cruise would walk away from falling off cars and crashing through windows. Heck, I drop something on my toe and I'm out for a couple of days.
I thought Tom Cruise, Simon Pegg (always funny), and the "bad guys" did a pretty good job. The chemistry of others was just OK. See if you can spot the very funny Slumdog Millionaire game show host in the film.
Good escapism, cool cars, great stunts, it was OK. -
Mission: Impossible 3 revitalized the franchise, so it's strange that star/producer would choose Brad Bird as director of the fourth film. Bird's directed some great movies, but all of them have been animated. But if you've seen his best, The Incredibles, you know the man can direct an action sequence, so why wouldn't his technique work for flesh and blood actors? Luckily, it does, and Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol may be the best film out of them all.
The standard issue plot involves the government disavowing the Impossible Missions Force, sending the group on the run while they try and stop a crazy Russian from starting nuclear war. But it's the action that really makes this movie stand out. We get to travel the world, from Moscow to the Middle East to India. There's fights and explosions and chases, but the one sequence that makes this film standout takes place at the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building. Cruise's Ethan Hunt climbs the outside of the building. I know it's just a movie, but the way Bird directs this sequence had me on the edge of my seat.
The acting is kind of inconsequential, though I did enjoy Simon Pegg as the group's resident techno-geek. However, it's this film that reestablishes why Tom Cruise became a movie star in the first place. Recent tabloid exploits aside, the man knows what he does well, and he commits to the film 100%. It's him hanging 130 stories in the air, him throwing punches and shooting guns. He's a presence on screen that you can't keep your eyes off of, this time, for good reasons.
